Red Wine before bed?

To start, you need to know something... I often enjoy a glass of red wine to finish off the day. I have a box of wine (cheaper than bottles, usually just as good) and usually have a glass or two of wine to settle down and mellow out for bed.

The situation; a good friend of mine, well really he's THAT FRIEND... You know; if I was married the friend my wife wouldn't really be happy I spent a bunch of time with. We do the typical bachelor things.... see 'exotic dancers', play hockey, farting contests... typical things a couple guys would do.

Anyway, my bud is moving in to my 1 bedroom apt for a week or so because he's suddenly between living arrangements. No big deal, he gets the couch or floor, I keep my room and he'll b gone in a week or two. It's likely we won't even see each other until very late, he works evenings and I work days, so on and so forth.

How does this tie in with red wine? Well Jeff (not his real name) was over last night getting the keys as I was having my glass of wine... we chatted about typical stuff and where he could put his junk, etc. We were on the couch (only seat I have in the living room), in my 1 bedroom apt, in downtown (near the legislature in Winnipeg), I've got classical music playing (just because I enjoy classical music now and then), and I'm drinking my red wine.... He and I realised then; if you walked in right now we'd resemble a same sex couple...... A mild case of homophobia develops, I chug my wine, and decide Jeff will pay his share of the rent in beer.

I think I've described the scene adequately enough. Question is: Do any of you out there think my short term red wine boycott is unreasonable?
