home brewing

on saturday i made beer with my friend nathan. it was fun however, if you are allergic to pollen (like some of us are) don't eat the hops straight. about 20 mins later my lips and throat swelled up and by the end of the day i was itchy all over.

sometimes i wonder how i survived this long.

Thankfully, you did not die or end up in the ER!

oh nothing to horrible. i was chatting with eric and he asked me if i had even gone drinking with you. that's all, well maybe not all, he did ask me this while he was watching a movie and drinking gray goose.

oh, i thought you meant eric had allergies, and i would have been amazed.

and what is wrong with drinking? just because you are a prude. :P

I never said anything was wrong with drinking. What I said is just one more piece of evidence that you too are very similar and there is nothing wrong with that either.

i think the biggest sign that we are similar is the fights we used to have. remember eric trying to compete with me? i am eight years older than him, i didn't even remember what my grade was in 8th grade english let alone cared that he did better than i did.
