They had me at "kittens"

The original idea of this blog was to document our beer and movie consumption, sure, but I had to throw this little gem in there. Because you can't say it doesn't have a certain aesthetic appeal, twisted as it is...




PETA is attempting to rebrand fish as sea kittens? Apparently? I don't know. From now on, I'm ordering "sea kitten and chips" in the pub.

First Impressions

Between work, my extensive (and largely lowbrow) reading list, all the movies I've never seen, and the videogames I've not yet completed, there are just not enough hours in the day to do everything I'd please. And this list is of course leaving out all the places I've never been, all the pretty boys I've never met, and many, many varietals of beer I have not yet imbibed. Basically, there's a lot of life left to live and very little time in which to do it all. This is a blog about making decisions based on first impression, because who has time to do the research?

Usually I'm THAT person - the one who has researched obsessively - overzealously - before ever trying something new. Then, there times when I see something and I think, "Hey! It pretty!" and I eagerly throw my hard-earned (...) money at it. This blog is for those times. We've all seen the personal blog fail to be inspiring, many times over, so amen to frivolty and let the good times roll.

(Hell, I'm drunk right now! Best inaugural post EVER!)
