Happy Asshole Day.

July 2, 2008 by Andy

Every year everyone has a day when people’s friends get together and celebrate, in whatever fashion the person’s choosing is, that individual’s right to be a complete an utter asshole for a day. Oh right, some people call it a Birthday too.

They can go to whatever restaurant, followed by whatever bar, that costs however much money, and if you go, you can’t complain because everyone will say “Shhh!!! It’s their birthday! You can’t complain!!”

I like to do things a little differently. Instead, my birthday is the one day a year when I just want all my friends together and have a good time; it is the one day of the year when my friends can count on me NOT being an asshole. The Italians do things this way, and I think that’s pretty cool. Of course, the birthday person is also the one who buys all the drinks so…I’m not sure how keen I am on that.

However, I AM very keen on going out and having a great, not-so-expensive time and just laughing my ass off for a few hours, other than insisting we do what I want and have YOU pay for it.

Also I’m curious to know, to I have to respond to everyone who wrote “Happy Birthday!!” on my Facebook wall? Or do they know how insane and time-consuming that is? Maybe I’ll just change my status to “appreciates your birthday wishes but doesn’t feel obligated to tell you so individually on your wall because, well, that’s a lot of work.”

So, what am I doing for my birthday today? Well, so far I have a track workout at 7pm planned. Other than that…I’m undecided. If you’re in the city and want to find me at a bar somewhere, send me a text.
