Now, Friday and Saturday nights have quite the opposite effect on me. I don't want to do ANYTHING. Tonight, for example, I was invited to MIX with a friend of mine. I've never been there, it's supposed to be nice, and yet, it had no appeal to me at all. I fondly wished my friend a fabulous time without me. And the last time I saw Cherry Hill, all I could think of was how I missed Murphy's Pub because you could pull up a table and chat with friends while watching the band instead of being crammed like sardines into a standing-room only bar.
I thought it might be my age -- but no, there are plenty of 27 yr olds who still love the nightlife scene, especially here in Vegas. Then again, it never had the same fun element to me because I don't drink. I couldn't just turn on the insta-party with a few shots; I was usually the designated driver and always the babysitter. Which I didn't mind, don't get me wrong -- if I'm not going to drink then at least I could make sure my friends were safe. But maybe because of it, the novelty of nights out like that just wore off faster.

It's Saturday night of Memorial Day weekend in Las Vegas. And there is no place like home. JDM
