even the mild hangover has a refreshing feel...what? do they put opium in these micro-brews? here's what else I had to drink (while catching up on a weeks worth of "the daily show with Jon Stewart via hulu.com): Stranger American pale ale (Left Hand brewing Co.), Hop Rod Rye specialty ale (Bear Republic, Headsburg Coverdale, Ca), Darkangel Cherry Porter (North Peak Brewing Co., Traverse City MI), Hofbrau original (Staataliches Hofbrauhaus, Germany), Erdinger Hefe Weizen (Erdinger Weisbrau, Germany), Milk Stout (Left Hand brewing co. Longmont, Colorodo. favorite, so far, out of these listed!), Moose drool Brown Ale (Big Sky brewing Co.), Big Sky IPA (Big Sky brewing Co. Missoula, Montana), Raging Bitch Belgian style IPA (Flying Dog brewing co., Frederick, MD). there's two left in the fridge: Trout Slayer wheat ale, and Goose Island honkers ale. those will be taste tested later today...I got a bit tanked. it's a bunch better buzz than that box o' Schlitz provides (with about double the price tag), and, like I mentioned before, even the hangover feels pleasant. weird, right? I'll be exploring some more fun imports/micro beers within the winter months ahead.
set my alarm clock for 9:11 this morning (set it while heavily microbrew sedated...no idea why I picked 911? 'cause I'm retarded, I guess. I didn't have to be up 'til 10). burn some coffee, do the pooperdog walk, drink said burnt coffee, take a shower, and type more nothings into my wood-panel submariner journal *belch!*
note: scroll to the bottom of this webpage, and click on "importsixer" under the 'top tags' category, for more (not so exciting) entries on Import/microbrews that I had past taste tested...
later: I drop the cool hippy neighbor lady off at the airport, then swing over to Standale to meet the Kid at Applebee's (yummy food!!). we yack for a spell. seems he got a bigger check from the insurance company than what he actually paid for the car
(his old car got whapped at a red light). he, then, finds another car (via Craig's list) for about the same price that he paid for his other car, leaving him extra cash (good thinkin'!). it's a nice car! a Chrysler Sebring. anyway, he plans on saying his goodbye's to friends before splitting southward (Souf Carl'ina
) to meet up with friends down there, and share an apartment, find a job, "reboot", is the word, I think he used? it'll be a good experience for him, I'm sure. it's always a good thing gettin' out on your own...good luck, Kid!
. here's hopin' you don't miss the snow too much
a couple beers, a subtitled Japanese movie, and a couple pooperdog walks shore up the rest of the night.
