Happy Hour Sighting

After a long absence, a friend was happy to see me.  He suggested we indulge in one glass of beer.  Sensitive as I am to substances, I mentioned an important lesson from college.

"If I am going to drink, I need to also eat."


He was able to charter carrots and cottage cheese.


His excitement carried over into a second beer and my request for more food.  He understood our time together was brief for he had a meeting soon approaching.


Departing, I realized, as I figured, the carrots and cottage cheese certainly hadn't curbed my sensitivity.  I needed to think of a place where I could recover from my state.  What environment suited me in my circumstance?  I didn't want to go to a park or parking lot, I would just be dizzy and miserable.  Where could I go to come out of this haze?


A tavern!  


There one can feel at home being dizzy and miserable and enjoy detoxifying food.
