winneganfakeOk, I've come to a decision about my birthday. Or specifically, what'll be going on for activities that day. It's really pretty simple.
I don't get to go out for beers these days. Part finances, part lack of time, part whatever. But anyways, that's what I want to do for my birthday. So, the night of August 11th (since I know nobody's going to want to go out for drinks on the 13th, my actual birthday.) shall henceforth be Beers Night! I still need to figure out location though, and I'm open to suggestions. Needs to be a good sit-down place, maybe some pool tables, with a good selection of brews. It also needs to be somewhat quiet. I want beer and conversation, not the ear-bleeding volume of a club or live show making it impossible for me to even hear someone yelling. So, yeah- beer. Talking. No special presents or anything else required. Anyone up for it? Anyone got a good idea of where?
Also, I decided to do something else a bit odd- if you wanted to come along, or just buy me a beer, and can't because of schedule/distance/whatever, just use the button below- It goes into the account set aside just for Beer Night. And yes, I will drink a number of beers equal to the number of beers purchased with that button- if you want to get me blotto, just keep pushing the damn thing. More than ten go in there, and I'll make sure to bring the camera and post pictures, since I'm sure drunken stupidity will occur at that point.

There's also the Hopvine Pub, which has local craft beers and good food that isn't too heinously expensive. It can get kind of close in there, but it's still all at conversational levels.
As to the just stumbling home thing, how about adding a "Taxi Me!" button as an option for those who were debating about the "Beer Me!" option? ;]
I know I'd certainly chip in toward a worry-free ride home for the celebrant!
