Doing more of that thing I do...

So like many a wine worshiper, brix-blogger, and media maven (triple alliteration points) I'm throwing my hat in for the illustrious and much coveted Murphy-Goode Wine Country Lifestyle Correspondent position.

This is an opportunity to live for 6 months on Sonoma County, drinking good wine and eating good food, and all the while blogging/twittering/YouTube-ing, etc. about it. Sounds like the perfect thing for me - as many people have suggested.

Here's the brief video I filmed as part of the application process. Once it's up on the "A Really Goode Job" site, please check it out and vote for me. I appreciate everyone's support ... for the goode of wine and the goode of oenophiles everywhere. (Yes - I know - I need glare-proof lenses, and I only had a minute to say everything.)



VIDEO IS NOW ON THE MURPHY GOODE SITE

Cheers!

I tried convincing Ryan several years ago that I didn't like wines....he smiled at me and said "well that's just silly...saying you don't like wine is like saying that you don't like food...you might not like all wines, but you're sure to like some"....and with that my journey began! Thank you Ryan for always taking the time to teach me something new and to never making me feel silly because I still buy them based on if I like the label! Cheers!

Yo, a link would be nice. I tried going through the list for 400+ videos for you twice and couldn't find you. ;-P

Ryan, I can´t see your EYES. You look kinda undead in this video. And slow down and breathe, OK? California is a MELLOW place.

Otherwise, it´s a winner!
(I´m always so supportive, eh?)

Yes, I need to get anti-glare on my lenses. And I only had a minute - breathing is overrated anyhow ;)

Thanks for everyone's support thus far! I really appreciate the encouragement.
