Time flew by in a good way -it's great to break traffic laws and listen to whole albums but this much
driving will be avoided in the future. It cuts into beer drinking time before/during/after [stratetgy, eh?].

In Olde San Antone
Friday afternoon, advanced scouting took place at FreeTail brewpub while I waited for HermanaDiablo to get off of work.

Evoken's “Atra Mors” made for an enjoyable drive down to Austin -they now hand out a complimentary
pint of craft beer when you get inside city limits.

Hung with HermanoDiablo II -late lunch at East Side Pies [ESP] and gave the re-release of Lone Star Bock a test drive.
No bad but will work through the rest of the six pack to see if it's worth a repeat ( Read more... )

Tomorrow marks the Thanksgiving run to FBG then Saturday for fun in Austin.
Scotcharina is along for the ride and DJ-ing parts of the trip since I've
got a working CD player in the vehicle. Classic Rock and Ramones alert.

Beer will be worked in, not sure about fire due to the burn ban -we'll see.

Belated...due to work, drinking, humping, etc. Sure, I could've put this behind a cut but your LJ friends list isn't
that "busy" anymore. ;>

Friday 11.04.2011Whip-In for lunch and beer shopping. Andrew “I'll eat anything for TV” Zimmerman is dropping by as his show's focus is ( Read more... )

Recovered from past weekend's toil and Point of Conceit sessions due to being off from Wednesday & on ( Read more... )

No calls. Plenty more sleep; I'm almost recharged. Less than 18 hours left on the clock and I'm free.
Next week will be short with a roadtrip starting Thursday. I look forward to getting out of town with Scotcharina.

Last night's systems validation went quickly; the only “moments” came from systems people jumping the gun to identify
a problem when ( Read more... )

Nothing exciting thus far in the week as I'm still worn from the on-call period. Off to visit the parents tomorrow morning
with a swing through Austin.

I'm on a quest for 512's Double Pecan Porter which had a limited bottling of 960. The distribution is Austin only but I've got a couple
of lines and fortune might smile on me. Sure, I've drank of ( Read more... )

Small B.S. during the day but no calls through the night. I still woke up at 0300, my body now instinctively
anticipating a phone call. Oh yes, I quickly fell back asleep and moved in a slow non-purposeful way
throughout the workday. Going to bed early tonight as well.

Short week in that I'm off starting Thursday to visit Madre & PadreDiablo at El ( Read more... )

Great weekend that will carry me through March -it's going to be rough at work with the D.C.Hex project.

Traffic back to Dallas flowed well -law enforcement worked the northbound commuters and the one cruiser I saw working
southbound already pulled someone over. The trip improves when going about 85mph.

Destined for Boot Hill
Lots of breweries opening ( Read more... )

Great day yesterday in which I speeded excessively southbound from Dallas to Austin and all the cops were working
the northbound traffic. Plenty of good beer drank and procured with some classic arcade action made this one of the
better birthdays in recent memory.

Black Metal Unleashed
The Whip-in advised me that they would be out of bottled Jester ( Read more... )
