Happy St. Patrick’s Day everyone! I took the day off and slept in, played some Call of Duty 4, watched some TV, and then met Mr. & Mrs. Ghost Dog at Rose & Thistle at a bit after 3:30pm. We were joined briefly by Snooks, and then later Kelly, Miranda, and my brother Travis and [...]

Today around noon I went down the street to my friend JB’s place to buy her kegerator from her. She’d had it for a year or so, and then developed (or discovered she had) a gluten allergy (which sucks).
