Birthday Restaurant
I've decided there should be a restaurant that people can only go to on birthdays.
"Sir, excuse me, it's not my birthday can I still come to your restaurant?"
ABSOLUTELY... NOT!
Unless you're with a friend that is having a birthday. Then... ABSOLUTELY!
It would be an over 21 place of course. Because obviously we're going to have super over the top drinks. There will be perhaps 5 courses to consume. Every course will have a candle. Even the main course. Of course the cake will have a candle too. The cake and the steak. Put a candle in everything! Everything will be over the top birthday related. It will be like a funky surprise 50th party... except... for any age... over 21. Because of all the booze. And we'll even supply a complimentary drunk bus to drive your hot drunk mess home after the festivities.
My mom keeps asking me where I want to go on my birthday. I can't decide. Maybe if a birthday restaurant existed, I'd go there. I'm kind of not even the mood to celebrate it. Haha... It's just another year to me. I think as you age you stop caring about birthdays. I just think... 33... and still single. Oh well. Who knows... maybe this will be the year I finally meet and fall in love with the girl I spend the rest of my life with and get to propose to... with a fancy ring. And say I do to... and walk down the aisle. I made that my birthday wish last year...
Obviously the birthday wish granters lost that wish when they were getting to the wishes. If the 32 previous years are any indication... I'll probably still be single as heck this time next year. Oh well.
But I have to think of somewhere to let her take me to celebrate. It makes her happy... So I'll let her make a big deal out of it.
Yep. I myself will be 33 on my next birthday. I honestly thought by 33 that I WOULD have met a gal and gotten married and all that. But here I am... still single. It's not so bad. I suppose... I think I've given up on that whole finding love thing. Anymore I just go out a lot. Just do lots of things and keep busy. Just like eh... oh well... yay to the single life...
Waiter! ANOTHER MARGARITA PLEASE!
Who knows, maybe this WILL be the year I meet someone special. Fingers crossed. Or maybe this will be the year I consume 365 margaritas, 365 lattes and go to 365 different planet fitness gyms just to keep busy and pass the time until I do meet that girl that I get to say "I Do" to.
I sometimes think that she's just not in this area.
Maybe I need to travel more. Who knows... perhaps the special girl of my dreams lives in another state and has been there all along having an equally tough time dating and trying to find the right guy.
I'm going to try and spend more time maybe in adjacent states... NJ, DE... maybe MD, and NY. Go on little road trips. Little day trips on the weekends. See what sort of people I bump into in those states.
I also want to plan some trips where I fly to new places. I'm thinking Austin, Texas. Everyone keeps telling me I'd LOVE Austin. I've had about 6 people tell me how much I'd love that place.
I'm going to make a travel bucket list. I've always wanted to go there for sure. There's a bunch of other places I've wanted to go to, too.
This will be the year that I travel more. I've finally built up my stock investment portfolio to the point where I'm not adding any additional capital and just making trades with the cash in that account and then reinvesting the money back in. So, I think instead I'm going to use my paychecks to travel more. I really don't travel enough. I guess it's kind of hard to... my mom needs a good amount of help.
And now in addition to her many other health problems... she's got this partial vision loss in one eye and the other is blurry. That happened recently. So I've had to do some more things for her. It would definitely be hard to just take off for longer than a day.
For now I'll just do the day trips... but eventually maybe after this vision thing is back to normal I'll go on longer trips. A couple days to a new city I've never been to.
Well, travel and birthday wishes aside... love or not... I still think there should be a restaurant that you can only go to on your birthday....
On second thought, actually I guess there is...
The Melting Pot. Because no one ever goes there except for a birthday. It's a little on the expensive side from what I understand. Or so everyone tells me.
Maybe I'll go to The Melting Pot for my birthday.
Actually, true story... I've never been to The Melting Pot. Not once. In my whole life.
I guess it's decided. I'm going to go to The Melting Pot. AKA, the birthdays only restaurant.
After that I'll probably head to this music thing I got invited to tonight.
Interesting little story of the night... So tonight I was out getting a pumpkin margarita. Yes, it's a margarita actually served in a pumpkin! Check it out...
I know... AWESOME! Right? Yes. It was every bit as delightful as it seems.
Well anyways, I'm sitting there drinking a pumpkin margarita and this guy next to me starts talking to me. We found out that we BOTH have the same birthday. I was like... oh heck yea! October 10th baby! 10/10! We high fived. Well so then he invited me to come hang out where he was going to party this Saturday for his birthday. He's going to The Ardmore Music Hall to see a Grateful Dead cover band called Box of Rain. I'm not a huge Grateful Dead fan... they're ok... not my favorite, but I was like well what the heck. Sure. So I agreed.
And who knows. Maybe the girl of my dreams will be at that show. And then I can say... if it weren't for a pumpkin margarita and the guy sitting next to me at the bar sharing the exact same birthday as me... I never would have met her.
Hey, a guy can dream. And it would be on my birthday too. Which would make for a cool story. I mean I'm happy to have a lame story too as long as it leads to the girl that I get to spend the rest of my life with. So here's to meeting the girl of my dreams this Saturday night.
And if not... There's always next year.
