w00t! It's my 21st birthday today!

There has been some on-offical tradition that some people have that they buy alcohol at midnight when they turn 21. I couldn't get any alcohol at midnight, because almost every place I went to kept saying state law didn't allow the sale of alcohol at that specific time of day, on that specific day of the week (Monday, 12 AM). Wal-Mart said state law was 12:30, and every other place said state law was 12:00. I was told that Tuesday through Sunday had a time of 1:30 AM before alcohol wasn't supposed to be sold. None of that shit makes sense to me. I was quite dissapointed that I didn't get to acquire my first "legal" alcoholic drink ever. I had been looking forward to it for several years. I had gone with friends on their 21st birthday before when they got alcohol for the first time.
