My Birthday

Posted in Milestones by Elliott Back on June 23rd, 2005.

Wish me a happy 21 ;)

So here’s what I did on my 21th birthday:

Last night I turned 21, and went to a bar/club in Seattle called “Chopstix.” It’s on Roy and Queen-Anne, North of where I work, and has a dueling pianos theme. The entertainment was good, and there were 9 other Amazon.com people with me.

Some highlights of the evening included being sung a birthday song about my “tiny member” for my embarrassment and the club’s amusement while I sat on one of the pianos and listened, being bought a few drinks by these mid-thirties bored housewives who thought I looked really adorable, and having the coworker who brought me here get called “my hot date” in front of the club… which she wasn’t, but all the Amazon.com people were quite amused.

Those housewives were funny, though, and since they’d bought me drinks, I went over and said hello and talked to them for a little bit. One of them kept mussing my hair, lol, and they got a picture of me. For some reason, mother-types seem to like me.

    By the way, I’m using your hashcash plugin on my blog. Nice work. One problem though: for some reason when I’m logged into WP the post a comment form disappears.
