Until my head the weather clears, and until I get over this snit or little crisis that I’m having, I suppose I’ll just post whatever I feel like, whenever I feel like it. Deal? Hope you’ll stick with me.

On a really boring rather unrelated note, I was pleasantly surprised by something yesterday. My first beer, an amber ale of standard fashion, apparently has finally turned a corner. I had all but given up on it being a shareable beer, one that I would gladly hand to a friend or house guest. From the get-go it was plagued with chill haze (cloudiness) due to unfiltered, suspended yeast and some bottles had a slight off-taste.

Now, however, most of the glaring imperfections have vanished, or at least faded enough to the background that they’re acceptable. So perhaps the lesson this week is that some things, despite their seeming state hopelessness, eventually come into their own.

I guess I have more to learn about patience and hope than I originally feared.
