there's a first time for everything..

yesterday i was a rookie. now im thinking about retiring.

im speaking about sullivan's of course.

so for weeks, i had been hearing countless rants and raves about their famous sunday dinner deal: mouth-watering cheeseburgers for $5. so finally, i decided to give these "best burgers in town" a try.

halfway to the restaurant, i find out that it's a pretty formal dining place. i look down and realize that i am wearing a hoodie, jordan shorts, and reeboks. doh.

so i am allowed to enter the restaurant, and after taking my first few steps inside, i hear "is that mok? jonathan? THAT IS HIM!"

and oh wow, it's my lovely softball team! apparently i was supposed to be at the team dinner at 6, and, what a coincidence, they came to sullivan's too! yipee! well, i tried to explain to everyone that i had been sleeping until 7, but to no avail. how come no one believes me anymore?

on to the food. i ordered a medium rare cheeseburger with swiss and cheddar, and holy moly, it really was as good as advertised! i still like fuddrucker's burgers more though =X

btw, Titus is awesome

anyways, the interesting part of the evening happened after the meal. by interesting, i mean disgusting.

so everyone has finished eating, when suddenly this guy comes out of nowhere and points at the seat next to me saying "mind if i take this seat?"

now at this point, i assume that he's asking if he can take the seat to another table, so i say, "sure, take it."

he smiles and sits down next to me. awkward. he then starts talking to the entire group, offering a free drink to whoever could tell him "what we did for fun today." silence.

i could smell the alcohol on his breath. i looked over at titus sitting on the other side of this guy, and he has this weird look on his face. i guess i wasn't the only one who didn't know what was going on.

so we decide to play along and go around saying something "fun" we did for the day. after every answer, the guy says "good, you get a free drink!"

after everyone had said something, he suggested that he get a bottle of champagne, and everyone could just pass the bottle around.

at this point, everyone informed him that we were all underage, with the exception of a few, and that we didn't really want a drink, but we gladly thanked him for the offer.

he then said that he could just buy the bottle since he was over 21, and we could just drink some. this made things really awkward, so basically everyone just ignored him.

he then kept asking me "why my friends were so mean" and "why my friends kept ignoring him." ok this was getting really awkward. i didn't know if he was gay, or drunk, or both, but i he was definitely hitting on me. what the crap.

he finally leaves, and i breathe a big sigh of relief, only to be comforted by the sound of everyone's laughter. i guess everyone knows im a gay magnet now. tiigghht.

oh, and happy belated birthday XIAO (saturday) and ANNIE (yesterday)!

as for today, today sucked. what a crummy day.
