Ready! Set! Go!

We have four seasons here and the autumn is on its way. When do you feel the autumn is about to come if you live in the area where autumn is observed? To me, the first sign of autumn is this beer. Autumn limited edition. "Taste of Autumn" is the name of the beer. While my favorite beer is Sapporo, this is made by Kirin. I don't drink beer much because it doesn't get me drunk but does make me full. (A friend recently told me I drink lots but that's not true. I only drink two days a week mostly. But when I drink, I at least finish 1 bottle of wine. but it's because I like it so much. I went out for drinks with another friend last week for wine and we finished two bottles of wine and several by glass. My friend was so tipsy and wasted. He doesn't even remember what he said or did. he kept hitting on me but I was so strong On the other hand, I didn't get wasted but it's because I wasn't tired. Really, statistically, genetically, we, Japanese, are supposed to be very weak.:) From last week, the autumn limited edition beer is sold at grocery store and etc. While it's not as humid/hot as the mid august (It's been kinda cool and rainy these days actually), it's still summer here in Tokyo but I can totally feel autumn is around the corner. This beer, the daytime is getting shorter, the tax deduction from my monthly salary has been reviewed (-_-凸. Are you ready for the new season? I will be working on Saturdays and Sundays in September and October due to this ridiculous project. In September, I only get 3 days off!! It's madness but I will survive as I willl probably go on vacation in November. Get ready for the brand new month!
