to alcohol! the cause of and solution to all of life's problems...
Huh, so this week[end?] so far has had a few interesting alcohol-related episodes:
(1) @ the Black Cat...mysterious man aimlessly wanders around the bar [clearly in some kind of hangover-induced stupor]...complete in a suit and tie and a briefcase massively cluttered with paper. It's was sooooo Biff Loman!! Also shame on you if you haven't read/seen Death of a Salesman. Adam: "We just saw that guy at Sparky's!"
(2) @ Bar on U Street...Adam (being the model Designated Driver that he is) decides that instead of purchasing [more] alcohol he will instead ask for an innocent glass of tap water that will quench his thirst. The bartender procedes to CARD HIM. I laugh.
(3) @ the Birchmere...I'm singing quite vocally and with arms outstretched the boot-stomping gospel/soul/country music with most of the patrons at the concert. Matt laughs.
(4) @ the 930 Club...very calm and funny bartender gets me a drink. 15 minutes later bartender is yelling wildly [profanities abound] across the bar with some arrogant concert-goer. I shrug. 5 minutes later bartender is cracking jokes with others. 10 minutes later bartender is angrily threatening the life of another drunk concer-goer. The entire 930 Club staff shrugs. I hope he gets to go Jack Bauer on someone's ass but instead Dr. Jekyl comes back.

i've been carded when ordering a diet coke, which was then given to me for free for being DD.
one of life's mysteries.
I only get carded when I don't bring my I.D. and the manager of the place that I frequent/live in is not there that day to verify my age/need for alcohol.
Geez...
I like that...not there to verify your age OR need for alcohol. I wish I had someone to verify my need for alcohol...that would be amazing.
