Dan the man

I’m not sure if it’s because I’m older now, but there are fewer things that excite me and more things that bore me. For most of my life the absolute most boring activity is sitting at a bar. How people find enjoyment in that baffles me, I tried a couple of times, in my early twenties it was new and exciting mostly because it was a rite of passage into adulthood, but for me it wasn’t all it was hyped up to be. It was the eighties there was a group of us, we were into cars, vans and motorcycles and on Friday nights we would meet up at the parking lot across the street from the local popular bar. Sometimes we would go in have a drink or two and go back to hanging out across the street, that went on until we all grew out of it and proceeded on to adulthood. I tried it again in my late thirties, a little different I was going through a divorce and it was a strip club and it was the women that attracted me, along with the booze and drugs it was a perfect storm in destroying my life. These days very little bore me, of course I’m not hanging out in bars I’m hanging out at the beach, in the water, on a boat living life.
