Oh Little Ry....

My little brother turned 21 on Sunday…as Brett puts it “I am officially old”.

I have a hard time reconciling the fact that Ryan is 21 as I feel like I literally just turned 21 myself. But here I stand…old n’ shit…and Ryan is now able to buy beer legally (not that it ever stopped him before)…

Little Ry (clearly just a nickname) started out the night with a family party and then, because he turned 21 at 12am on Saturday night/Sunday morning and therefore the bar choices were limited, we went into Waukilla for some 21 year old fun. Chad, Ryan and I stopped first a Booners, there just before the stroke of midnight. We cheered for Ryan as he officially turned 21 and enjoyed a little fun with my friend Elise and some family. Off we went after that to do a shot at the Muck (no Gloria and Bubba to be found) and then on to the Pub in a last-ditch effort to find someone fun to hang out with. Not so much.

Steve, the lovely and incredibly talkative proprietor of the Pub gave us free drinks and gave Ry a few shots of some good whiskey…so it was a cheap venture. Ryan got drunk (which was really what we were looking for) and we had some funny conversations. All in all it was pretty tame, but Ry is coming down to the city for his real night out on March 11th. Hopefully we don’t have to drag him home but I know he will get good-and-canned with the likes of his friends and mine. So…if you want to come out…let me know. Otherwise, I would stay home on Saturday night b/c the party might be too crazy for you!
