I take it back
So, there are some times when I appreciate being an adult. Last night was one of those times. When you were eight, chances are that you were not allowed to venture out into the big city by yourself when you're still a little sick, drink beer with good friends, dance the night away at a blues club, and eat chili cheese fries and a cherry chocolate milkshake at 3:30 in the morning at Ben's Chili Bowl. There are few things that are better (after an evening of drinking) than a cherry chocolate milkshake, except maybe Dunkin Donuts. I had such a good time that I didn't make it home until the middle of the afternoon today. That's how you know it was a good night. It was just the refreshing outing that I needed after the end of the holidays and the long illness. Being twenty-four definitely comes with some unpleasant responsibilities, but thankfully my hope for my old age has been revived.

K,
Well said. And Dunkin Donuts is so good...even if you can't get there late at night, an iced french vanilla and a glazed donut will still hit the spot the next morning. Well, that, or a three queso burrito from Qdoba. Or some Chinese food. Or, if it was a particularly rough night, a nice big glass of Coca-Cola with lots of ice.
I loved Ben's. It was the first time that I had been, but now that I now I can get a chocolate cherry milkshake, I might be there every night.
