We met at 3411, a local bar in Oakland where both of our friends frequently went to. Alex used to do host Taco Tuesday once a month at the local bar where he caught my eye. Unfortunately, Alex is oblivious about a lot of things and I got tired of waiting and made the first move and hit on him.

Alex was having his birthday party at 3411 on Friday, August 23. As usual, a lot of people showed up to celebrate his night.
