Equator

I was supposed to meet someone at the Equator but I got stood up. I made reservations and everything. I cancelled my reservations but still went and sat at the bar. They have $1 specials on the Martinis on Tuesdays for the first one; $5 for additional drinks. The bartender was really nice. I got a Martini, a $1 Satay stick and for the main course I got the Chilean bass. The main entree is kind of more expensive than what it is. It came with baby bak choy and this mushy white sweet potato which I'm not a fan of. But the ambience was nice. I love the East Asia decor with Buddhist heads and things. It was relaxing and cheered me up a little.

I'm not sure about coming for dinner, but I would love to come again. They have brunch specials as well on the weekends so I would love to check that out.

Magnolia Lounge

Today's Whiskie's birthday. He would have been 16 years old. I really miss him and was really depressed. I asked a couple friends to come out and they did not want to. One 'friend' had the audacity to tell me to go over to her place 20 miles away and have liquor or some crap. I am tried of going out of my way. Why can't she come out here for once. She only meets me when and where it is convenient for her.

So I ended up drinking on my own. I got the mac n cheese. The reviews were good. I was really excited about it. It looked great but the taste was kinda bland. The lemon martini was very yummy though.

I did have to wait about 10 minutes to get seated. The host asked why I was alone. The server was alright. He was a little slow though and seemed to keep forgetting that I was there even though I kept waving at him when I wanted something. In fact I wanted a 2nd martini but it never came around.

There is a large screen TV but I was seated next to a section of the wall so that my view was partially blocked. I think they have karaoke on some nights, but I'm not sure of the details. It seems pretty trendy with a good mix of young and old.

I may like to come back, though not alone, but with a group sometime.

I still miss old Whisk...he was the only true friend I ever had and I feel terrible about what happened. It really makes me question humanity.
