Turned out I don’t have a wine opener at my place. I head down to a fancy wine bar on the other side of the street. Wearing only my evening kimono, I put a fedora on my head to up my game. With a wine bottle in one hand, I open the big glass door to the bar. Everyone’s looking fancy surrounded by piano ambiance. I go to the bar and say, "It's an emergency. I have wine but I don't have an opener. I'm making spaghetti. The pasta is cooking right this moment. I don't have much time. Can you open the bottle?" I put the bottle on the marble without much grace. 3 people behind the bar look at each other and laugh. "Sure" one girl says, taking the bottle. "Busy, huh?" I say. "Not as busy as you", a guy answers. We laugh. The girl hands over the opened wine with a smile without a word. I say thanks and head towards the exit. "WAIT" calls the guy. I turn back and see him extending his hand. "Take this" he says. It was a wine opener. I take it, nod, and run home to save my spaghetti. It was delicious.
