This past Thursday night I had the exciting opportunity to be a bartender.
Thank you Mad River for hosting Party with a Purpose to help Open Books raise money!
I like bars.
I have spent some time in them through the years..... and was excited to try my hand out at pouring drinks.
I had all the tools and a quick lesson.
I realized quickly that my beer pouring skills were lacking, but did a little bit better on the next ones.
I also enjoyed my first "Shot on the house!" ritual where you pour one for yourself and others and cheers!
I REALLY needed to have some friend time, and was so thankful for my pals that stopped out to support us.
It didn't take me long to realize that I think I just kind of like the actual drinking and socializing part that comes with the gig. But it was really fun, makes me wonder if I should have tried it in college. Lord knows I have the gift of gab....wonder who I get THAT from (DAD).
Maybe I'll have to follow in his footsteps, bite the bullet and get my $15 online lesson. Pick up some hours at a local watering hole in my spare time ;)
