New years resolutions: most people make them in order to change their lives in a healthy way… you know: eating less, going to the gym, flossing, whatever. I’ll try to make some of those healthy resolutions too one of these days, but for now my only new year’s resolution involves drinking copious amounts of alcohol. I’ve lived in San Francisco for *ages* and yet i always end up going to the same places over and over and over and over again. In san francisco, people tend to go out in one or two neighborhoods which sucks cause there are sooo many different places out there in SF that i have never explored. here’s my goal: visit a new bar every week this year. 52 bars in 52 weeks. well, 50 i guess since i started 2 weeks late. i know it’s ambitious. that’s a lot of bars. but i think i can do it. This year, i’ll venture out and try different bars all over the place. from lounges to dive bars to pubs, i’ll seek them all out. I’ll hit up places in North Beach, the Tenderloin, and other areas of the city that i’ve rarely hung out in. if on Dec 31st of this year, we can look back and say that we’ve visited 50 bars, we’ll know that we accomplished something. it might not be a incredible something, it may not even be a useful something, but hell, it’ll be something dammit. and that’s better than nothing. Come inside...
