Red red wine

Is being a wino different than being an alcoholic?
Can alcoholics drink just wine?  Do you think someone has ever gone to an AA meeting and said
"my name is Steve and I'm a wino."?
It just sounds so much more fun than being an alcoholic... almost regal.
I don't support heavy drinking anymore, but I do enjoy a nice glass of red every now and then.
It's pretty obvious that I have wine on the brain right now, but I start to worry a bit.
If I am thinking about a glass of wine does that mean I'm addicted to a glass of wine?
No.  I mean I don't need a glass of wine, but it sure sounds great.
Evelyn, Reed, and I are staying at my moms house tonight. 
Justin is a bartender a night or two a week to make a little extra money for us and it gets pretty lonely when he is gone all day and night.
For some reason I always think that my mom will keep me company if I stay over here, but I always seem to forget that she passes out at 8:30 every night and I just end up being lonely in some other living room.

So... I took a two hour nap after a heavy fried fish dinner, so I'm not ready for bed, and Evelyn is asleep for the night, and there's a big wine rack over flowing with shiny bottles of deliciousness.

This is when I get myself in trouble.
Mom, John, I'm opened a bottle of your wine.  I'm sorry, but I just really wanted a glass.
Let's just pretend like it never happened.
I'm not a wino.  I'm just a fan.
