* Not to be confused with choking the chicken or spanking the monkey.
After yesterday’s birthday ruminations, I decided to get off my ass and assert some control over my life. Ah, but where to start? Changing who I am at this late stage of my life is likely a bridge too far, but I’ll be damned if I can’t change the way I look!
And what can make you feel younger than celebrating your birthday with old friends. And by old I mean older than me.
After some warmup drinks at Shenanigans (where the bartender kindly gave us a free shot in honor of my birthday) we headed out to one of my old favorite restaurants, Don Valley.
After dinner we retired to my longstanding bar home, Dolce Vita. It was pool league night so the place was hopping. And all the young women were saying how handsome and young I looked with my dashing haircut and clean-shaven face. Well, they didn’t actually say that, but I’m pretty sure they were thinking it.
Anyway, it was a nice night out on the town.
At least you didn’t say something like “garroting the walrus.”
