Ever get a pedicure?
I was sitting by the pool with my girlfriend on Friday night and had a few too many beers as we were chatting. I kicked off my sandals and looked at my feet and just passively said “man, I could really go for a pedicure sometime. If we would go, I would pay for yours too.”
Apparently this was like me screaming “free pot” at Woodstock.
Before I knew it she had gone to get the car and we were off. It was really weird having my feet scrubbed and all of my callouses scratched off. Sure, everyone likes getting their feet rubbed, but man was this weird and I am sure glad I had a few beers in me. It was nice to have the massaging chair in back of me.
I don’t know if I will ever do it again, but I am pretty sure I will need some booze to do it. Plus, when I got back to her apartment, I literally slipped and fell twice --- my feet were so smooth now I was having trouble gripping the carpet when I walked.
I think next time I will stay by the pool and have another beer.
Have you ever gotten a pedicure? What’s the girliest thing you will admit to trying?

It really doesn’t get any better than sitting outside on a beautiful summer day with a drink and relaxing, whether you are at the pool or the ball park.
But this weekend I got into a huge debate about what was the best beer to drink during the summer. I was at the Kenny Chesney concert in Philadelphia and everyone was swearing by Pabst Blue Ribbon and the keg of Coors Light at our tailgate.
Others were telling me it doesn’t get better than a Bud Light.
Personally, I love Lions Head or Yuengling in the fall or winter, but that stuff gets heavy during the summer. My newest go-to beer for the hot months has been Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy. It’s a bit pricy, but the stuff is banging with a hint of lemon at the end.
What do you like drinking during the summer? What is your go-to beer?
