Birthday

Last night was pretty crazy.

We went to this sandwich and craft beer place. It actually turned out to be an upscale little bar/lounge type place.

The beer was insane. They have something like over 200 beers from small microbreweries in the US and Canada. Every type of beer imaginable, they have at least a few choices to choose from.

I started out with a 9% abv breakfast stout. Then a 10% strong ale, then a 15% barleywine, you see where this is going.

We got there around 830pm and left around 12-1 (?). They actually close at 1030, but they were staying to do holiday decorating and we had a party of like 8, so the bartender (my gf hated her) stayed and we kept drinking.

There was an ill-timed whiskey shot somewhere around midnight, I don't really remember the exact time, but I finished my second helping of some other super strong, super tasty beer. That was it for me and a little while later we stumbled into my buddy JJ's Expedition. My girlfriend drove (as she can't drink bc of the kidney transplant) and we headed home.

The next 4-5 hours consisted of me drinking a lot of water and watching Ocean's 13 with JJ. Solid movie, nothing fancy, doesn't try to WOW you, but it's a very well put together movie IMO. Better than 12, at least in the same discussion as 11.

Anyways, going out with the girlfriend tonight to celebrate my birthday. We're probably going to go to this nice Hawaiian place 30ish minutes away when she's out of class tonight.

I'll have a website update tomorrow or Saturday and find a little graph to post as well.
