With a busy week ahead, it is nice to have a slow paced Sunday to enjoy today. Oddly enough we went out and had a busy day in the rain yesterday, but have no big plans to leave the house now that it is sunny today. There is a lot of stuff around the house to catch up on and some gold medal hockey action to watch later, so I am content with a day at home. Happy final day of the Winter Olympics!
Random thought #1 – My good friend (and roommate from college) called me on my birthday to (in part) ask me what was going on. Imagine our laughter when we realized that I was likely playing video games and drinking beer on my birthdays back then too!
Random thought #2 – The Wife brought to my attention that words come out of my mouth while watching (Syracuse Orange) college basketball games at home that are not known to be in my vocabulary or even in the English language. I think that is quite awesome and I am not ashamed at all!
Random thought #3 – I need to stop drifting off to my happy place(s) when stuck or driving slowly in traffic. Of course I enjoy my time there, but I also really like having my car in tact as well.
Random thought #4 – There are many rainy days where I wonder how I have lived in Florida for so long without owning an umbrella, but then the sun comes out the next day and I forget about it (until the next rainy day).
Random thought #5 – With every beer consumed I become more aware that environment and atmosphere have a lot to do with the perception and enjoyment of that beer.

I quite often find my head in the clouds.
Cheers!



Personal (individual) environment and atmosphere seems to change my interactions with beer, too. I mean that my own body chemical composition affects the experience. (i.e. stress, fatigue, sadness, joy, hunger, etc.) Of course, that can be said for everything from orange juice to sushi … but it’s much more fun to talk about the beer.
Have a great day.
You are definitely right . . . I guess I am just starting to pay more attention to it personally. I do enjoy some good orange juice and sushi (though not together), but I will also agree that beer is more fun!
