A friend called in the late hours last night, spontaneous invite to a bar I'm all too happy to report will close down soon. I'm all for spontaneous invitations especially within the morbid frame of mind I was in. Nevermind the mirror, step outside and hail a cab, onto the unexpected. It was nice to be with familiar faces -- unaware of my recent troubles. The crowd regulars were celebrating one of the last times they would ever frequent the bar, I was especially jovial too --
because of their loss.
