I was woken up around 12:06 am to my husband calling me from work to be the very first one to with me a Happy Birthday. What a sweet guy, I honestly have very little recollection of this phone call. I remember parts of it but I couldn't recount the conversation. Then he gets home from work around 6 am swings open the bedroom door and turns on the light. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" he yells. . .wow I'm sleepin dude, but it was a sweet gesture. He sits down on the bed and gives me his gifts. Now I can't get back to sleep, which is ok because now my phone is going crazy with text messages from friends and family members wishing me a happy birthday. There were quite a few, I was surprised. So I wake up and watch some TV waiting for my husband to get an adequate amount of sleep, just coming off of a night shift is no fun. So after a while i get in the shower and get ready and around 11 my husband rolls out of bed and decides he's hungry. We went to lunch at Applebees and I was tempted to order a beer but I didn't want the waiter to know it was my birthday. You know how they sing you those silly fuckin songs and interrupt everyone else's meal. . .not a fan of that. So I didn't order a beer, I just got a water. For some reason that seemed to disturb my husband, oh well. We then met his Mother at a dumpy little bar that she frequents, so she could buy me a beer. Well. . . it was supposed to be one beer but that turned into two beers, two beers turned into three and a shot and another and another, and so on and so forth. And as soon as everyone at the table figured out it was my 21st birthday, well, I was a goner.
There was one thing that did make me chuckle yesterday. . . One of my Mother in law's friends decided that I should have a shot of Fire water with him. . . ok. . sure let's do it. The waitress brings it to the table and I just down it like it's nothing, no face, no sound, no harsh exhale. This caused everyone's jaw to drop, "How could that not even phase you?" I kinda sat there with this blank look on my face. . .I mean come on you shoulda seen these guys. They were like "Hard Core" "biker" "sons a bitches". . .they couldn't even handle a little cinnamon schnapps? Really? ok so I'm a bad ass. Then comes the tequila, which I am a fan of. Again, didn't even phase me, never does. If I could put into words the pure astonishment on those men's faces, it was priceless.
so here is my very first (or second) FULLY LEGAL BEER
