"Do you want a glass of sherry?" -Joo

Resisting the temptation, I politely declined. It was already late and I've found that I don't sleep as deeply when I have alcohol in my system. I had already drank beer with my tuna sandwich for lunch the same day, accepting Joo's offer. She's been trying these new beers from Trader Joe's. Right now it's Henninger beer. It's pretty light and tastes alright. I can't believe I've already acquired the taste for beer. I remember I couldn't stand it the first time I tried which was just a few months ago. Well, excluding that time I was in London and Paris with my Mom in high school.

Joo has opened up the world of wine and beer to me since I moved in with her less than a year ago. She's getting to be quite a connoisseur. I just know if I like it or not, but I couldn't tell you why. My tolerance has gone up so that I could enjoy a social drink and feel relaxed instead of falling instantly asleep. It's a nice, warm feeling. Oh the joy of wine and beer!
