Solstice

Howdy!

~bartender? It's this time of the year again for hot chocolate with spices. Yes, please. And nice lemonade on the other side of the table, please. Why? Well, easy, while it's cool on the North side of the East/West-Table, and dusk looking around already, it's hot and sunshine on the South side. See?

~bartender shakes their head in disbelief but goes on to create the beverages nonetheless.

While I seat myself on said North side of said table, Smudge is already there, waiting for me. Oh, Smudge, you had to wait quite a while! How are you? Smudge settles on my lap hoping for attention. My drinks arrive.

It's a bit empty at this time. But that may have to do with reality overtaking satire lately and making unexpected turns here and there. I sure don't know, which branch of the universe I'm currently riding. Do you? And reading the paper someone has left on the table does not provide any hints either. So I close my eyes and watch memories long gone from years ago ...

Happy solstice!

~bartender, I'll have a cup of egg nog with a generous pour of bourbon, thanks.

Happy solstice, ~ew. Likewise not sure which reality tunnel I'm in, and trying to reset it. Or at least veer into one where my ereader and my coat aren't lost.
