Happy Hour! You know what is great about going to a restaurant with a packed bar, hour and a half wait, no seats in the lounge, and $12 drinks?!? From my perspective this is an opportunity to interact with people you care about without any distractions.
You pay $12 not just because you suck at making mixed drinks but because there is something to be said about surrounding yourself with a bunch of happy people and getting a break from our T.V.’s, computers and meetings that is rewarding.
It is unbelievable that so many people including myself get stuck in these crazy routines that give us no time to think for ourselves and connect with our friends, family and neighbors. How many of you actually know your neighbor (s)? My door is seriously 10 feet from the next apartment and I can’t tell you my neighbors name and not because I don’t want to but in the three years I have lived there I have had three different neighbors and my schedule is never the same as theirs.
One of my favorite stories is when I lived in Santa Barbara my friend Mark dropped off a plate of rice krispy treats one morning to say hi and create the beginning of a friendship that would be long lasting. You should have seen him standing there with a big blob/pile of treats. I laughed so hard when I opened the door and have been friends with his family ever since.
