Crazy nights out

Out of all the people I have known I like Andrew Pearson for many qualities he possesses. He is fun to be around and gets out of the house and has a life of going out to bars, restaurants, movies, and drinks. Many people who know me would say that is not my scene all the time and I do spend nights in or at a coffee shop reading. I definitely do not have a social life that embodies the spirit of a non stop party person and never will. I do like to get out and live. Part of living in my mind means getting out and doing those things we did growing up or enjoying going out.

I have noticed as people get older they still in more and stay home with their kids. On one hand that is part of having kids but on the other hand it seems like these same people are not happy. It is like they gave up a part of the joy they had from going out or having fun and they do not know how to recapture that in their current circumstances.

Maybe that is what I like about Andrew, he wants to have fun and hang out. He is not wild or wreckless and is responsible with a job and being married but he enjoys life. I am not a party type guy and am not super suave so I have no clue why Andrew wants me to hang with him but he is fun and I have always said yes. I may go home early or not drink as much but I enjoy a night out on the town and Andrew embodies that fun life style more than anyone I know. Maybe this is what people like about him, his vivacious spirit.

We hung out at the Irish Snug for drinks then off to New Jerusalem by DU for late night middle eastern food. What is fun about going out for a night on the town is it has that flare of excitement where one does not know what can or will happen next. It has all the liveliness of youth but without recklessness or rebellion. It is a lot like being in college and going for a night out to have fun.

It seems like part of getting older for me has meant loosing that side of my self or I do not do those types of things as often as I use to so thank you Andrew!
