Well, I tried Guinness. It tastes like wood and is generally nasty (I think I'll stick with lighter beers). I also tried absinthe (that stuff is expensive, and gets you very tipsy very quickly. Honestly, my goal is not to get drunk. And since I can still type, even on a British keyboard, at least 30 words per minute, I think I'm okay. Still, it's an unusual feeling. Don't have absinthe unless you're absolutely sure you want to get drunk. I think I'm halfway there right now, and so I won't have any more. I can still walk, see, and type, but I understand that I'm impaired. I'm tired, though, and so details of the London I experienced today will have to wait.
