You're never too old to get your ass kicked by a 7 y/o.

First stop was Pasqual's, a legendary old time SB restaurant. Pasqual's is yet another place famous for their strong drinks, and I've been there dozens of times, but every time, when I watch them make the drinks, I'm shocked. First some ice, then fill the glass almost all the way full with vodka, then literally, a splash of tonic. I swear, they don't even pour the tonic for a full second. My friends always joke that the tonic (or whatever mixer) is so expensive that they have to conserve it.

I couldn't figure out how cute guy knew I liked a little coke with my rum. But you know how expensive Coke and tonic is these days... gotta conserve it. I had no idea you had to go all the way to Santa Barbara to meet a guy from HB?

...except for a piece of cake that some girl actually tossed to me like a frisbee (again, must have had something to do with the drinks.)

Frisbee cake!!!!!! [Homer]mmmm floor cake[/Homer]. There was a bar, and I was being offered money to dance on it, alas it wasn't ment to be, I woulda hit my head on the ceiling.

Next we all piled into cars and headed over to The Brewhouse across town to see my friend's band Burning Edamame perform. The band was excellent, as always. Even if I didn't know they were great, I would have known after a creepy stranger told me how great they are three or four times. Yeah dude, I know. I'm the president & only member of their fan club OK, not really.

Yay! Drunk directions!!!!!!!! Who knew a Element had so much back seat room? Not me! Every bar has a creepy guy. Ya dude, you're old enough to be my dad. And you're not even remotely attractive. Go away. Thank you.
The drinks there wern't as strong at the brewhouse. I assume they had good beer but I'm not a beer fan, and sadly most of the beer I saw people drinking was not from the tap.

So we headed across the street to The Press Room which was absolutely packed. The Press Room is the place to go in Santa Barbara if you want to watch your favorite rugby team on satellite. Or if you want to meet hot guys with sexy accents. We closed the place down, then alas, I had a washer, dryer & refrigerator to be delivered the next morning, so we headed back to my place. It was definitely a great evening. When I hit the ripe old age of 31, I hope I can have as swanky a celebration!

All night Rugby! How in the heck did I forget hot sexy accent guy???
When you turn 31 your celebration will be amazing, full of hot guys with sexy accents.
YAY new appliances!!!!
