Today is my son-in-law's birthday. Since Janice and Kyleigh are out of town, we will be celebrating our birthdays together on Monday this year. We usually do celebrate them together and choose a mutually agreeable restaurant, but this year since we're celebrating on my 70th birthday, he's letting me choose.
Last year for his 40th birthday, he chose to go to Johnny Reb's, a southern style restaurant where you shell peanuts and throw the shells on the floor. Sadly, they've closed the one near us. They had a tradition/ceremony for those celebrating a birthday there.
First, you have to kiss a metal pig, but you have a choice as to whether you kiss his nose or his ass. Kissing his ass gives you good luck for a whole year so guess where Devin kissed.
Then you have to dance around and stomp on all the peanut shells.
I knew they did this and didn't want to participate so I celebrated my birthday a couple of days later at Famous Dave's. There, they sing Happy Birthday and give you a free ice cream sundae. The picture in my profile shows the size of the sundae.
