Out at the Bar...

kybearfuzzToday was a lazy day of sorts. I had planned to go to the gym today, or rather yesterday (I just saw the clock), but got up late and ended up doing some chatting (I said it would be hard to cut back).
About 5 PM, I got an idea to go to Shooter's, a country-western gay bar downtown. I'm not a bar guy really, but I wanted to see what it was like. I called a buddy up to see if he would want to go. Luckily, he did as he'd been wanting to check it out for some time. We got there around 8:30 PM.
Now this was my first real gay bar visit. I've been to Hamburger Mary's before, but this place was a little different. It was a smaller place than I imagined and they didn't play country music until about 10:30 PM. Still, it was a neat place to be in, seeing everyone and just relaxing with a beer. The tall bartender there was a super nice guy, who kidded with me several times and refilled my Diet Coke several times (I had my two beers already and was driving my now drunk friend home later). He was also very handsome and looked really good in the cowboy hat. ;)
About 11:30 PM the place was jumping, but I had had my fill for my first visit and my buddy was very tipsy already. I didn't get hit on, or at least I don't think I did (I'm not very astute at this yet). I think it may have been the fact my buddy and I were sitting together that most guys thought we were a couple. Oh well, this visit was more of a recon look-a-round to see if I'd want to go back. I think I will sometime.
I wanted to head to Hamburger Mary's again to see the drag show, but my buddy was already drunk and I was getting tired, so I drove him home and then got myself home too. It was fun. Now I'm sleepy and reek of cigarettes, and I don't smoke. So it's time for a shower...
