Reasons You Need a Wine Fridge
Wine can make you do almost anything, such as make you believe in horoscopes. Wine can also cure your emotional concerns pretty much on a whim, better than any pep talk ever spewed. It's also probably the only beneficial alcoholic beverage around, in addition to the other more unique qualities it may or may not behold; ie bathing in wine. Still, respecting your wine is just as important as drinking it (and finding more, wink-wink). On a serious note, everyday standard fridges normally can't fit one wine bottle, let alone multiple, and they tend to have an internal temperature range that fluctuates and doesn't maintain the right level of humidity, neither of which are any good for storing your wine. Either you're pulling out a bottle of red from the fridge, which takes an added second of wiggling and frustration, only to find it's either gone bad or just doesn't taste the same.

My Alcoholism Prevented Me From Getting Advanced Degrees
When I was busy drinking on half-baked meds and wasting my time in other ways, I didn’t think about how this would impact my desire to get advanced degrees. I knew in my twenties that I wanted to become a lawyer and get a psychology Ph.D. But in my thirties, my desire to study medicine came out with help from a friend of mine who pointed out I wanted to become a prescribing psychiatrist in addition. This desire got tacked on to my other desires. I have no idea how the psychiatrist thing popped into my head but it did. Then I discovered I just plain wanted to help people with my disability. I would like a joint MBA with my law degree and also, I want a Masters in psychology, an M.S. specifically.

What One Glass of Wine Does to Your Brain
