3 Beers Less

 I woke up at 1:30 in the afternoon, with 3 beers left in the fridge. Now, right now my "ration" is 2 small bottles of Guinness, and a six-pack of IPA. I got away from Lagunitas "Little Sumpin'" because its alcohol content is higher. And, I allowed myself one more beer, in the afternoon, if I felt like one - that would be the beer I had at the British Bankers Club yesterday. 

But last night, after photographing 20 things and listing 10 of them, I settled in for the night and didn't feel like drinking any more beer and when I got up, saw that there were three cans of beer still in the fridge. And I felt better when I got up, too. 

If I can pare it down to three cans of IPA a day, that makes the 12-packs I've been buying at Whole Foods last much longer. Ideally I want to pare it down to the two small bottles or one pint bottle of Guinness a day because I swear the stuff makes me feel better. Supposedly it's got a lot of niacin in it and although there are niacin pills, there's the matter of bio-availability.  

A pint of Guinness a day means even if I'm in a non-drinking, non-smoking etc. place back home, I can go out busking and stop in somewhere and have a pint, and no harm no foul.
