Today is Julie's birthday! (I am married to her.)
Thursday: Julie joined Doug and Emily for an outing that stopped by a local brewery. It sounds like they had fun! I was stuck at work, since we're doing our birthday stuff this weekend, but after I got out, we went by the Jim for a drink. (I'd already had gumbo for dinner, and we arrived late enough that their kitchen had closed, or I'd have wanted to try their new menu.) I started with a purple jawn, which was fine: fruity, a little acrid, and I couldn't decide how I felt about the mint flavor, but it was more memorable than the lime-brew beer I had next. Julie stuck with her usual spicy jawn. We reminisced about the poorly considered relationships of our 20s. Since she decided to turn in early, I stayed up to catch up on my Disco Elysium livestream and this Return of the Obra Dinn playthrough I hadn't seen yet on YouTube.
For Julie's birthday, she and her dad and I walked up to Pat's King of Steaks for cheesesteaks. We also stopped into Ray's Birthday Bar so she could get her drink and her photo with the hat.

I stayed up way too late in a funk about my personal and professional shortcomings. I dug out my old journal and wrote an update at 4:15 AM to lament the fact that my livejournal account was full of superficial crap, that I took myself way too seriously, and that it was supremely embarrassing that I was still feeling miserable about my high school crush. I had no way to know that this would be almost exactly four years before my first opportunity to celebrate the birthday of the woman I would marry.
