a couple weeks ago, we were at the food carts on belmont, enjoying a nice root beer and waiting for our sandwiches from lardo. shawn got to talking to the root beer guy and he told shawn about zwickelmania, on february 19. he explained that its like beer holiday with free buses. we like beer. this could be a good chance to try a bunch of new beers. ok, we're in.

i am not going to say i didn't have fun, because i did. we went to 3 breweries and tried a LOT of beer. we talked, we laughed, we ate pickles and a cupcake - not together. it was a good day. but i think possibly i didn't need a second spring gose at cascade.
nor did i need to drink a beer at the twilight rummage sale, but at that point my judgement was already impaired. (side note: twilight rummage sale - ALL KINDS OF AWESOME. its monthly. and four blocks from our house. portland, i really really love you.)
today i am suffering with a hangover the likes of which i haven't experienced in YEARS. my typing seems too loud. there is not enough water in the world to rehydrate me. i acutely understand a vampire's aversion to the sun.
i could say that me and beer are through but it wouldn't be true. i really do like beer. but, yesterday, that was too much beer.
