Some things because I'm a little drunk because I went to a pirate bar

1. I sold my earrings on ebay. Not for as much as I wanted of course, but the fact that I sold them at all is pretty awesome.

2. I've discovered a pirate bar. It's my new favorite place.

3. Grog is not just a pirate drink. It's a thing they serve in real bars: rum and juice. This is what I order anyway. I'm a pirate.

4. Arrrr.

5. If some random 55+ year old guy at the bar asks you if you have enough money to buy your drink, then offers to pay for half of it (which works out to a whopping $3 - before tip), it kind of works to say "no, it's cool. I've got it." But then he might creep over to the jukebox when you and your friend are there and give you $10 to "play the best music" but luckily the juke box does not take $10 bills, and by the time he gets change, your friend will already have put in her dollar. So when the creepy old man with smelly breath comes back, you can repeat the line "no, it's cool. We've got it." And then run back to your other friends. Then he will leave the bar forever.

6. I love pirate bars, and pirate bartenders who invent their own drink called a "dirty pirate hooker" and then give you the recipe when you ask (but I'm not going to disclose it here because I don't want to ruin that bartender's rep) and also give everyone in your group a free shot of said drink.

7. Arrrr, again.

8. That's it for now. Good times had by all. The pirate bar bathroom rated a 2 out of 5 stars, but what do you expect - it's a pirate bar.

The pirate bar was pretty cool! When saying it was on of the worst bathrooms I've ever been in, I didn't stop to consider that it was a PIRATE bar. My expectations were too high!
I'm hoping to get my recommended blogs up this week and I'm adding you to it!

I think the bathroom was pretty good for a pirate bar. I've been in worse bathrooms that were in regular bars. They had no excuse.

While they are certainly worth a log more, it would have been cool for the purposes of this post if you'd sold those earrings for $2. That way the buyer could say they bought them for a buck-an-ear.


Haarrrrrrrrr....

You are hilarious, and you win the prize for Best Pun of the Century.
