Ok, so, here’s where i make the basic assumption that my parents aren’t even vaguely interested in my website. I drink. Now, having said that, let me make especially clear that i don’t especially like drinking or getting drunk, but that there’re certain beverages that i enjoy the taste of (and would probably like better if they were non-alcoholic). I like yummy shots of medium to low proof like Fire&Ice and ButterShots, i like Kaluha, and i would drink Rasperry CiderJack for breakfast if i ever ate breakfast. I don’t like tequilla, straight vodka, or beer. Seeing as i am rather ambivilent to boozing, i wasn’t especially looking forward to any sort of drunken binge on my birthday, but i wound up in a state of blissful inebriation that i couldn’t have engineered better if i had tried. Aiding and abbetting me were the Amy&Renata household and the inevitable Taco Lou’s.
Taco Lou’s is a permanent fixture on Drexel’s campus, located around the corner from my Freshmen year dorm. It’s a tiny food truck that makes rather healthy and well regarded mexican food for Drexel’s drunk every party night of the week. If it’s 2am and you’re drunk, it’s time for Taco Lou’s. I managed to totally abstain from eating there Freshmen year, but i was determined to have a vegetarian burrito there on my birthday. Conveniently, a fellow NSW leader works the grille there, and he made me a yummy birthday quesadilla for absolutely free. I was actually invited into the food truck to sit in the kitschy vinyl seated table they have tacked against one wall. Once everyone else in the truck found out it was my birthday they offered me beer, but since there were Freshmen everywhere on the street outside i politely declined, stating that i didn’t like beer. They then produced a bottle of Hard Lemonade, which is aproximately like an alcoholic version of Sprite. That topped off my earlier marguerita and inagural shots in my very own glass very nicely, and i reached the state of inebrial bliss just in time for a strange birthday coincidence…
