Oktoberfest
Yesterday, Oktoberfest started for me.
It began with Meg (from the H.R. dept) inviting everyone to a wind-down evening at The Corral. Needless to say, everyone in our group accepted so of course i went along.
I have to confess i dont drink beer, i simply find the taste too strong and acid-like. Ate Meg and another girl from HR have me something called Kool Aid which tasted sweet and strong at the same time. I think it was strawberry or raspberry mixed with Amaretto, but whatever it was it tasted good. Too good in fact, because after three or four rounds, i swear the room started swaying like there was an earthquake or we were in a giant shaking box. Chel steadied me and accompanied me to the ladies room where I noticed my cheeks were flushed (good thing the lights were very dim in the bar). I decided to sober up with some munchkins and touched the deceivingly named Kool Aid again just before we went home.
After that i was fast asleep and woke up at 11 groggy but with a clear head, and a morning smile on my face.
It might not have been beer but for me, it was way better. Oktoberfest is here! Cheers! =)
