It's not for this malamutt. Spent the evening at a bar with the wife and a few friends and everything was just too loud. When I drink, I like it to be chill, not necessarily quiet, but a nice ambient tone that isn't constantly blowing out your eardrums from the TouchTunes machine or people yelling over each other. Literally said maybe two sentences to our friends that were there because I just couldn't hear or understand them.
Ended up having one drink and 9 glasses of water while I was there. I guess the intermittent sobriety may be cutting down on my desire to drink after all. (That or I just couldn't get comfortable enough in that environment to have more than one.) I'm still trying to find other outlets, but it's just difficult.
Anyways, I hope you all are doing well. Happy spring to those that get to enjoy it. Happy tornado season to the crackheads, storm chasers, adrenaline junkies and Midwest Male Figures (iykyk). Happy birthday to anyone I missed or have coming up. Happy Fuck This Job Day to the lucky ducks and fucks that get to tell their current employer to shove it. Last but not least,
This world is better with you in it, I promise.
From this side of the dirt,

There was the one time I went to gay bars with my brother, and I had the most fun getting something to sip on and just sitting in a corner and people watching. I've become a slightly more comfy in myself person since then, so maybe id even be able to talk to someone....but I expect kinda a similar experience.
Good luck with the hunt for outlets!
Never been to a gay bar so maybe that's my problem? Then again I also have low-key social anxiety even though I can talk to pretty much anyone, especially with some liquid courage. I don't have anyone to people watch with though. I don't know, I think I've gotten past that point in my life where I want to be a part of that culture or venue and I feel like I just want to be on my own or in my own little bubble. Talking to people is still hard, I'll give you that but I know you've got this bud! I appreciate the kind words, I have yet to find an outlet as of late, but I'll keep trying new things!
