beer, fuchsia, river, cat

last night i went to a beer-tasting party held by my sister's boyfriend and his roommate. i had a lot of delicious beer, so that part was definitely a success. in fact, RIGHT AS I TYPE i'm drinking a rescued beer, "old guardian", from stone brewery. it's apparently a "barley wine style ale", which seems to mean it's delicious and has a fantastic 12% alcohol content. i approve.

i keep forgetting what normal people of approximately my age are like. i was rockin' a tweed waistcoat, a bowtie, fuchsia chucks, and a sweet pompadour, and everyone else was wearing t-shirts. well it's obviously good i was there. they needed someone to gay it up a bit.

anyway, this is all obviously a longwinded way of saying i haven't seen the doctor who finale yet. i'm planning on wtching it in a li'l while, though. this will be the first one i haven't watched with somebody since eccleston! well, i suppose i do have a kitty to watch it with. he is currently sitting on my shoulders, so he should have a good view.

<3s, everyone

I'd get online to watch it with you if I were not dead on my feet from spending all day at the fair today. Sounds like the kitty will be excellent companionship, though.

Your outfit sounds fabulous, btw. Those slackers don't know what they're missing.

Your outfit sounds amazing. Sounds as if you were definitely the coolest person at the party, methinks. Pics?

Well clearly SOMEONE had to bring fashion sense to the party. Normal is overrated. Beer is good.

In short,

Aww... you could have asked me and Brandon to watch it with you. I want to know what you think of it!

I would seriously appreciate pictures of your outfit because dang, that sounds hot. <3

Barley wine is the best beer!

Waistcoats and chucks are awesome attire.

it was very tasty indeed. i should do some reading on beer, because i enjoy the deliciousness but have no vocabulary to talk about why.

Waistcoats and chucks are awesome attire.

THE BEST

i like my t-shirt and jeans. not easy to find tweed in my size.

you do t-shirt and jeans well, of course. i think you could pull off a crotchety stephen fry type thing if you did find some tweed, though. :D
