Another Birthday, Another Lost Weekend

As usual, I started celebrating my birthday on Friday night even though it wasn't officially till Monday. I mean who wants to celebrate their birthday on a Monday? So it began with meeting Obamakin for dinner at Charleys on Newbury and ended with us going to Machine where I lost him early on and didn't find him till after closing when there was 2 queens fighting outside the club (what a drag).

Saturday theMan was out of town so I got the day to myself which always leads to trouble. Lunch with my buddy, Yummy, turned into an afternoon of foolishness which left me drained by the time he left. But after a power nap, I managed to drag my ass out of bed and hit Paradise for a night cap. Next thing I knew it was 3am Sunday morning and I was doing the "Walk of Shame" back to Somerville.

By Sunday, I was already feeling my age (44) so I spent the majority of the day hanging out with theMan who was back in town and catching up on my rest. But by night fall, I was bored and restless so I called Obamakin and we ended up playing pool in Davis Sq. Knowing myself, I took Monday off from work and spent my official birthday with theMan. After some morning sex, we hit the movies (took him to see Star Trek which is big since he hates Sci Fi Movies) and then had dinner at the new burger joint in Davis.

But, over dinner, theMan asked me if I got everything I wanted for my birthday and the image of PrettyEyez instantly flashed before my eyes. Yes, I lied to theMan, even though deep down I knew I didn't. I probably never would either but what I have now is good enough.
