A big, big beer

While I was scheduled to leave work today at 2 PM to make up for staying until 6 PM earlier in the week (as opposed to taking the overitme pay), I found myself leaving closer to 1 PM since I’d skipped my lunch.  When the phones all go down at 11 AM for around two hours, you tend to skip lunch.  Psssh, lawyers on conference calls billing at $300/hour.  How much money could the firm actually be out?

At least I got out of there early.

I got the email I was hoping for today from the gy who runs the wine shop saying he had hops for me.  I went down to pick them up, and they smell great.  I wish I knew the types, but I’ll make do.  I’m going to make a big beer this weekend, probably close to about 8-9% alcohol if I’m lucky.  That is, of course, if my cooler will hold that much grain and water all at once….

For now, though, I’m sitting outside with Hanne and enjoying the sunshine.  We’re headed to have a few drinks with friends in a couple of hours, but until then I’m going to enjoy the weather.
