Need to update

It is not encouraging that the second I actually formalize my blog plans, I no longer feel like writing. I should write. I have been going out tons lately but I come home and I don't find the time to write about it. I like to write. As a matter of fact I write everything, love notes, love letters, text messages, emails, etc. But it's just so hard to summarize them on Blogger once the blank pages starts staring at you.

So I will do better to provide more updates.

Mind you we are inching closer to one of the worst periods for every single man and woman out there....yes cue Psycho theme music...yes, Valentine's Day. Oh, I hate thee. So forgive me if I go silent, I may be busy knocking down every Valentine's Day display I see and being accosted for it.

Let us do a slight recap.

Saturday Night, after the Friday Night spent at Door 44. I went to Meehan's Public House for their Robbie Burns Day Celebration. Mind you, I don't know who Robbie Burns is, or care for that matter. I'm sure he's a swell fellow. But I love all things European so it seemed like a good idea to go hang out with in some pub with some Irish people for the evening and enjoy some good ole' fashioned imbibing of beers. I won't lie I ennjoy a good pint every now and then. Plus, there was some live music from a Scottish band complete with tartan wear, skirts, bagpipes and all. Yes, you had to have been there.

The reason I like places like this, apart from the booze involved, is it's generally unpretentious fun. You meet foreigners like you and you get to share tales of foreign sojournings. Things you miss about the proper pubs in England and all the pseudo pubs in Atlanta and how they fail to cut it. No one acts like they own the place; it's just shots shared all around with some good laughs. I had so much fun I almost ended up closing the place down and let's just say certain things make you realize, you may be getting too old for this shit. But that's a story for another day.

Will I do it again? Probably not too soon. Or I'll save some energy for one of my favourite holidays...St. Patty's Day!
