-Though the temperature in St. John’s has been on the rise, it still seems bitterly cold (which is what wind and water do when combined with sub-zero temperatures). Though I keep expecting it, we haven’t had much snow in the past few days.
-As hinted at in the previous post, last night my father, uncle, brother, sister, and I went to the Rooms for some free beer and an artist’s talk. The free beer, provided by Storm Brewery, was in association with the piece ‘Candahar.’ The artist’s talk was by Annette Manning.
-The fridge and freezer here are on the full side. It is my plan to get people to eat some of the contents so that we will be able to have room to store post-Christmas leftovers. As I haven’t articulated this plan to all that many residents of this house we will have to see how things go.
-My life has been relatively quiet and unsocial since my return. Maybe in the next few days I might actually get around to seeing a few people.
-This jump into the realm of socializing seems somewhat inevitable as I will be attending my grade 7 reunion on Saturday night. It should be just like library school as the gender balance was just about the same, or even a little more skewed.
-Neil is still a slacker and doesn’t seem to be able to find the time to post even though he does find the time to use his computer for several hours a day.

Free Beer at the Rooms
So it turns out that you will be able to get free beer at the Rooms on every Thursday (except December 27th) until some time in March.
The beer, provided by Storm Brewery, is being given away in association with a piece at the Rooms called ‘Candahar’ by Theo Sims. The piece is the recreation of a traditional Irish pub, hence the beer. It is possible that as the Thursdays progress the piece will develop and adapt to those that visit. In particular, it is hoped that in the coming weeks a musical element will be added. The goal being the creation of the relatively free jam space (with free beer).
It should be noted that while the beer is free, one does have to pay for admission (which grants access to the rest of the Rooms as well).
