I have blog, remember?

Leave a comment

Man, it’s been a long time since we have been active on here. Life got busy and weird. 

No, I’m not saying goodbye to this blog. I actually would like to keep growing it and remembering that it exists. 

Recently pretty big changes happened at the work place. My boss (COWORKER), my blog partner, and most of all one of my closest friends left to start a new journey. I’m happy for him, because I know that this work life isn’t easy. He needs to be happy and able to be himself wherever he can be. I’m sad for me, and the rest of us at the job. He would always put a smile on your face, remember your coffee order, and take you to get pizza on a bad day. 

I felt like writing because this is something that him and I started together, and with all the life changes, including me moving to Indiana in July, I want to make sure we try and do this together, together. 

I want to get back to the pizza and beer, the music and movies, and the all around awesome that this blog is. Get back that spark we had when we started. 

No more sappy bull shit, I promise. 

But hey. Thanks for reading and sticking it out. You are rad. 

Check back soon for content!

Craft Beer Week

Leave a comment

Obviously, this is like a holiday for us beer lovers. I’ve taken advantage of this a couple of times this week.

First, we start with Black Label Brewing. I visited there on Saturday and completely fell in love. The atmosphere was inviting, and gave me a strange sense of home. The building used to be where Merlyns used to reside, during the time of my life that I practically lived at that place. Drinking beer there just gave me a sense of calm and happy. Not to me ton delicious.  

 

I fell head over heals for the American Wheat (pictured above) It was smooth, yet just hoppy enough. I love me some IPAs and hops, but this was just enough.

I did try just about all the beers there, and they were all exceptional. The Spring Session IPA came in at a close second. 

Drink their beer. Enjoy.

And the next on the list, happens to be River City. They happen to have one of my top beers of all time on their list ( girlfriend ale) and they had an event at the Checkboard bar. 

They had four beers on tap, and pints were $1.25. YES! I said one dollar and twenty five cents! 
Best. Wednesday. Ever

  
Between Heather and I, our six beers ended up costing us $7.50

River city is one of my favorite breweries around. Their beer range is pretty good, going from the light Girlfriend and huckleberry the River City Red. They usually have a stout or two along the way. My Boyfriend fell in love with the Ohko koko (which could be totally spelled wrong, but couldn’t find it online 😂)

I always go for the Girlfriend if offered, and you can’t go wrong with a blonde ale, am I right?

I’m hoping to experience more of this week, but just wanted to blog about it right now!

Be well and drink beer friends!

Art can be home too. 

Leave a comment

I’ve basically become a comic art hoarder as of late. Each convention I go to I find more artists that I love and take a piece of their art with me, and even on me. 

I came across the art of Chiara Bautista and have been severely obsessed since I have. Every background on every piece of technology I own tells that story. 

Have you ever seen a piece of art and felt like home? 

  
This for me is it. 

And it only gets better. Every piece I feel like tells a thousand stories with little to no words. 

  
Every piece tells a story, which happens to coincide with my life. 

I’m also a sap. 

Please support this amazing human and the art which makes me so happy.

You can find the work of Chiara on Facebook Chiara Bautista

INFEST in Beantown Killin it..

Leave a comment

In case you haven’t heard of INFEST you betta ask somebody..!! Super stoked that INFEST started playing live again in 2013 and has been showing the kids and us old fucks what’s up once again..

Here’s a little blurb I took of a fan page..

SOURCE : http://rateyourmusic.com/list/useful_idiot/powerviolence_ :

“Infest:
One of powerviolence’s pioneers (if not the very first PV band), Infest’s insanely pissed off, unrelenting sound and jagged, unsettling compositions are in many ways unmatched to this day. Their expression of straight edge ethics and criticism of the hardcore scene provides appropriate backing for the blinding fit of fury they were known for unleashing. Cited by nearly all present during their lifetime as one of the most intense hardcore bands around at the time.”
