I went to din­ner with Sonace tonight at the Black Tomato. I ordered what I nor­mal­ly get there, and rec­om­mend­ed a seafood dish to Sonace, since he’s a big seafood eater. I had a very inter­est­ing red wine with my red meat, but unfor­tu­nate­ly I for­got the name of it. There was a slight­ly sweet start with an unusu­al fruit flavour, some­thing I did­n’t rec­og­nize. The wine was burst­ing with taste and had an amaz­ing, mel­low fin­ish. I want­ed to see him before I head­ed off to Hong Kong, to see what he’s been up to. He lost a lot of weight when he stopped play­ing foot­ball, and was sport­ing a slick pair of glass­es. Now he looks like a smart guy, going for his law degree.
