Ive become a regular at this place n Fitchburg, Sean patrics. It's by far the best place I've found so far, best food nicest atmosphere, it's clean and I likethe cute wait staff. It got live music and all the games on plus the bar arm rest style that I like, an odd preference when I'm Loki g for a place to drink. Findng a clean place has been harder than I thought, I'm trying to avoid the chain restaurants and there are plenty of local options. Not all good ones but plenty ofthem. I've got a dozen within walking distance for lunch alone.
I've been flitting with one of the cute bar tenders here at least once a week since I started coming and she not here tonight which I knew coming into it today. I was "stuck" with tw new girls I Hadn't met before. Wicked cute blondes (pun intended). The conversation Took an odd turn when they started talking about prom. "wait, how old are you two?" they were both (luckily) 18. Which blew my mind, I thought them both older than that. They both said t was ok because I was only 23. "wait what? Who's 23?" Apparently they had read my liscnse wrong when I came in and though me younger than I really am, not totally uncommon for me. Of course I thought they were at least in college. That's where this night ended with akward silence and me leaving.
30 is going to hurt for me, I don't know a out you guys buti far too often get people tuning I'm far younger than I really am and it leads t awkwardness like this. I don't mind being a big kid at heart, but immnot actually a kid.
I'm totally screwed, or not.
i get that too, and i try to look at it in a positive light. i especially got it after i shaved the beard. many of my coworkers had never seen me without it (i didn't realize it had been that long), and told me i looked way younger without it. i've found it's situation dependent...sometimes i wish i still had the beard to portray myself as older/experienced, and sometimes i enjoy not having the beard and be perceived as young/energetic. it's like the just for men commercial.
my conclusion is that you should grow a sweet mustache.
If I could grow one I would. I still only shave 3 times a week. I need to follow in my dads footsteps. I've also been watching a lot of my name is Earl on netflix, sweet mustache.
Mustache is key.
Most people think I'm younger than I am. High voice, weak facial hair, chubby face, short and giggly - I'm screwed.
