Much to the disappointment of my ladies, it was just about quittin’ time in the city. I had lots to think about. Well, I had Alchemy to think about but I was going to think about her a lot. And…I had to do it without my nightly booze-bath. That was not going to be easy or fun. But nothing good in this life is ever easy or fun. I guess most bad things in this life aren’t easy or fun either. Anyway, back to my point. Alchemy was worth it. My Courvoisier swigging lips were sealed.
