Oh I got the water thing down, no worries on that one. Thankfully I ate right before I went out. First time all day.
Slodave, I tried to go out at midnight! The bar stopped serving at 11P, I guess it's some kind of law or something in Lexington. In any event, I set my alarm for 6A this morning to get get a beer, but it was too cold, so I slept in
I only paid for I think 3 drinks, so I'm doing alright

The other ones, 2 female friends bought for me. I'm going out this weekend with the whole Chapter to really celebrate.
I've traditionally had really bad birthdays, not that they mean that much, really, but this one was great. My oldest brother called, and he had wanted to drive down (from Chicago!) to take me out, but he wasn't able to get off work. It's the thought that counts, though, and that meant a lot to me. Having good friends by my side really made the day wonderful, though. Plus, the kitchen closed early so I got a free shot of Crown:-d.
Everyone else had to go home, tests and what not this week, but I'm still going strong. If only I can find another bar that's open...
PPOT, this doubles for you.
