OT - Friday Posbang (kind of?) - what are you drinking thread

Submitted by ChuckieWoodson on

While we are unable to give carefree upvotes, let us rejoice that it is Friday, Michigan Football is rapidly approaching and that alcohol is abundantly available in today's society.  On tap for me?  My kids bday party and a keg of Oberon.

so I'll be brief:  Quitting my current job, starting a new job on Monday, nothing really for me to do today so I'm just watching the clock tick away. (NEED MOAR CONTENT, PLZ!)  And on a weekend that I desperately need some rest, my wife has planned all sorts of things for us to do.  So, I'm drinking coffee and switching to beer as soon as the day is over.  Black Crown most likely.  Ugh.

Quitting my job as well. Today is my last day! It is also beer friday in the office so I get to enjoy a few cold ones starting at 2 o'clock. As soon as I get out of work, I will be making the 4 hour drive from Boulder to Gunnison, CO where I will be going back to school in the fall to earn another Bachelor's degree.

brings back memories.  We used to fly into Denver, then get on a Ritchie Valens type plane and fly to Gunnison, and on to Crested Butte to downhill for a week.  Awesome stuff.  I wonder if Crested Butte Brewery still has Red Lady Ale?  Good stuff, but it's been 16 years or so.

Just quit my job and am starting a new one on Monday as well.  I am right there with you on the NEED MOAR CONTENT part.  

As far as drinking goes, it is only 11:15 and there is a bottle of Jack staring at me, tempting me.  Let's see how long I can resist....

I'm in a similar boat: yesterday was my last day. Now I've got a week (and change) off before starting my new gig a week from Monday. It's only 10 am out here, and I have to go look at apartments, so coffee is the drink of choice. Later it will be a growler from TBD (whichever brewery catches my attention as I'm running errands today).

Leaving this afternoon for an Alaskan cruise... Not exactly sure what to expect, but I am pretty excited anyway....

Might have a Founder's Dirty Bastard before I head out.

Half Decaf - it's a craaaaazy morning...

But I will be going to a Quaker Steak & Lube wing buffett for lunch.  Later on, I'll hit up a killer happy hour where I'll likely get thundered on Rogue Dead Guy Ale.  After that, it's a cab home to wifey!

It's 10:25 here in Chicago, and I try not to drink before Noon..Eastern Standard Time.

That being said, I have a mix and match of Goose Island to sip on tonight as I cheer on my almighty CHICAGO BEARS. Da Coach would approve.

My wife and MiL are taking the boys to Palm Springs until Monday. Bad news: I don't get to go to Palm Springs. Good news: I get the weekend off. Not sure what I'm going to do, but nothing will play a pretty big role.

Going to The Greene Turtle with some friends and seeing who can complete the tap line. Meaning the bar has 20 different beers on tap, and we wanna see who can get the furthest. My Friday evening.

Last weekend in CA before I finished my Masters program so I will be wrapping up my final project and packing. And then it's back to Michigan on Thursday. Just in time for American Collegiate Tackle Foosball!
