Grinding Away at Time
81 Days. Just 81 Days tills school starts up again. It's been 2 years now since I've set foot on campus. Two years since I've been in a class. I have to say.. I'm not really looking forward to it. As much as so many people enjoy their college experience, I'm not really looking forward to my senior year. I mean I get all the responsibility of being an adult, I don't get to participate in sports, and I have to go to classes and actually put in effort to get my GPA up because I messed it up so badly my other three years. But...on the bright side, I'll have few distractions and I'll be able to have something to focus on again. So that's a good thing.
Recently Laura and I have been plotting out our post-grad...well my post-grad, her post-spending a year living with her boyfriend, which has been exciting and scary at the same time. For those that don't know (I may have written this already) we're going to be moving to Texas to work on her grandfather's cattle ranch. Very exciting, but we're also planning (hold your breath) on opening up a brewery in Austin after we spend a year or so at the Ranch. Super exciting. Laura came up with one of the best ideas for a name of a brewery, and we're looking into trademarking it right now... who the hell knew that it was $325 to trademark something? Crazy right? And if it's not successful, then they just take you money and you get nothing but a letter saying you suck.
Needless to say we're a little bit cautious about it. I have an attorney that I'm going to call to talk about it so we'll see how that goes.
In other news, Princess Jill is officially gone. I haven't seen her in about a week, so I figure that she has taken her kittens to greener pastures. I was glad that I could help for the little time that I did. Oh well.
Also, thank you all that attended my BBQ this weekend, I had a wonderful time barring my one incident near the end of the evening...I'm sure you can figure that one out. And I blame whoever was mixing the margaritas...because those were not margaritas; it was Tequila on the rocks with a splash of lime. Bastards.
Fantasy Football: Starts in 50 days. So if you want to be in the league, it's $50. Sent me an email at mlastname@asdfasdf.com and I'll send you the information. Should be a good time. Cash prizes obviously.
It's Thursday. I can't believe that I have one more day of work to do. I even took off Monday (Thanks to Laura we had a nice day off together and went shopping around town...hence my earlier B&H story) so I really have no excuse.
Oh and as for the beer brewing...well... yeah we didn't do it. Laura and I sat around talking about stuff, so we had to put it off. It's going to take place on Sat. or Sunday, depending on how much we procrastinate. I also ordered Scottish 80 Pence, which is amber colored ale. Should be pretty good. Figured that we couldn't keep brewing just dark stuff.
Erik, our other brew partner, couldn't be around on Sat. so we're going to brew on Tuesday or Monday next week also. We're going to have more beer than we can drink. It's going to be great.
At least we won't be so stingy with it. That's the hardest part about the homebrew. I don't want it to be gone because we made it, but I guess all good brews have to come to an end. Anyway, I'm out for the day.
