Wow, this is so well stated. Ditto.
Red wine is my favorite thing in life. Unfortunately, it hurts me. After about a decade of it being my permanent accessory, I had to switch to a different drink, although I'll still have it once or twice a month. I tell my friends regularly, "on the day I day, I hope there are about 4 empty bottles of red lying next to me".

Christine IS(was) the one. She's what made it all work. Quirky Lindsey. Ditzy Stevie. Drunk John. Loser Mick. SHE is what brought it all together.
