Looking to get out of the house more and I know there's so much rich fun and entertainment I'm missing by just focusing on food, drink and Stros.

Cruise the Bissonnet track.

Sometimes go check out a comedy open mic, or find a bar/small venue w/ live music.

Catty Corner off Alba and Wakefield. Double bonus points if there is a vato birthday party.

I work out at Alphalete six days a week, have met some cool people. The gym -> work -> home -> Netflix -> sleep cycle is what I want to break up.

Tonight me and the gf ended up going to Postino in the Heights ... so, food and drink again sadly. But I appreciate all the input, keep it coming.

We took the kids to Candytopia last weekend and had a blast.

It's like a short visit to willie wonkas factory

Will be returning without the kids under the influence of (take your pick of narcotic) to have a blast.

It's a one time thing, but definitely something to do

serious answer, Houston has a lot of great museums. I haven't been yet, but the newly renovated Holocaust museum is supposed to be well done.

I have 3 kids. Being out past 6:30 is "late" now.

Weeknights for young childless couples or singles seems to be bars with trivia, bingo in the heights, sports clubs like sports monkey for volleyball/kickball/softball, HLSR committee, Tuesday Night Drinking Club, or classes of some sort like cooking or brewing.

Yes.

Move to the 'burbs, have some kids, the notion of being out on a weeknight will be horrifying.

So, definitely don't do that is what you're saying?

As a half-assed business consultant would say, it's a paradigm shift.

Being bored on weeknights kind of starts to sound appealing.

And when you turn out the lights at 9PM to go to bed, you'll have the sanctification of knowing you stayed up later than your neighbors when you see their lights are already out.

LOL...dress cool bc it gets hot AF there in the summer.

The most hardcore vato birthday party I have ever accidentally attended was @ Vara's off 45 near Patton. Cholo city. Was legitimately nervous.

I wouldn't classify Catty Corner as a "yuppy dive" at all...maybe it used to be years ago before Crowbar and the mini breweries on Wakefield and bars just inside the loop came in? Hardly any yups in there ever. Sometimes they stop by to go "slummin" for a drink or two but its mostly blue collared and modest locals. Its def not cholo'd out like Vara's though. Or like Buffalo Fred's used to be esp on Thursday nights (me and my buddy exited that place while some vatos decided to do a drive by on the place years ago).

EDIT: I guess you've got a point...def a yuppie bar by comparison to places like Vara's and Ray Rays on Collingsworth.

Catty legit has coke use on the regular there and not by yuppies.
