London Callin' You Out

So we had a little get together at the Winking Lizard with an associate from our London Distributor. Let's just call him The Jug. It isn't what you think. In Britain, you would order a jug of beer, not a pitcher.

At any rate, The Jug came with us for an outing. He was the stand in for our absent boy team members. Although he only had one style of beer, he was happy to talk about our tour and experience Annie Lyn's halfway. We had a lot of wheat beers, but with the turn to warm, sunny weather, it felt like the right thing to do.

Yes, Annie Lyn got her blanket, and the boy teammates are not halfway yet. They are getting desperate though - they resorted to getting take out six packs on Thursday. They tried to be clever and put them in the car before we got there.

No such luck - Annie Lyn busted them on the way to the car. It has prompted a new rule that Annie Lyn and I created yesterday when we were at the WL, only one six pack per tour when you are NOT with the team.

This clarification is very important because we are planning a golf outing and will need the six packs for the event. You always need to make sure you rules aren't too restrictive, but just keep others from pseudo-cheating.

So here we are calling out the boys from trying to take the easy way out - something the girls wouldn't do (unless until it comes down to the wire and gets competitive - but I doubt that).

Cheers

The Beer is Colder in the Other Fridge

I thought when I reached the halfway point, there would be a sense of liberation. It would be better to be drinking the second half instead of the first haf.

At first, there was glory. There was the halfway prize - a Winking Lizard blanket. It was very cool and had carrying handles.

Now, I am feeling the pressure. I went to have a few beers with Annie Lyn, and I started to get worried. I have two big drinking males on my heels. I was planning on relaxing. I was thinking that once I got past the halfway point, it would get easier.

It is getting harder. I made some rookie mistakes. There are a lot of wheat and flavored beers left - not really my favorite style. There are a lot of big beers (high abv) left. I need to regroup. I need to adjust the setting on the fridge and cool things off.

I need a beer!!
