For all of you who don't like beer...I have one for you to try. It's made by the micro-brewery named Big Sky Brewing, out of Missoula, Montana. The name of the beer is Moose Drool Brown Ale. It seriously tastes like chocolate beer. That's the only way to describe it. It's not hoppy (bitter) at all. I think everyone would like it....and it's not to be confused with a Nut Brown Ale, like Newcastle, which is also amazing...but maybe not if you don't like beer. Anyway, the next time you wander into a liquor store, take at gander at the Moose Drool...maybe split a sixer with somebody. Good stuff.

Tonight the twins swept the sox. The O's swept Oakland. We're only 4 back in the wildcard race. 4 games ago we were 8 back, get the picture? Tomorrow night (Thurs.) my brother is singing the national anthem at the Twinkies game...it should be fun. Hopefully we'll keep the ball rolling and win again, although I think it might be Mays pitching...which would be bad. He pitched the last game I went to and gave up 5 runs in the first inning. Hmmm...oh well, a twins game is fun no matter what. Plus my sister-in-law is throwing a party afterwards and I don't have to drive home, so that'll be fun. And I get paid tomorrow night. And I don't have to work. Yay! Alright...before I have another beer, I need to go downstairs and pick up my trombone and play for a while. Yes, I know it's after midnight...but I've only played once since May and auditions are in like...what...less than 20 days. Yikes! Good thing I really don't care at all where I get placed. I know I won't be in the touring group....I guess I just want a respectable chair placement, so the 1st year girls don't think I'm some crappy senior. Yup, ladies and gentlemen, senior year apathy has already set in. Let the good times roll!
