It's amazing how, without even realizing it, I've managed to duplicate what I've seen in a few different milieus before. In multiple ways, no less. Tonight I was the pool player, who won a few games against those who were better than I was. I was the caretaker, who made sure my RNR made it home safe by pretending I was going home with him, and wanting to make it real even though I know it can't happen anymore. And finally, I was the finisher with doubts, the one who stays and finally leaves wondering what's best and whether I was actually doing what was right.

Of course, I know, he won't remember, which means pretty much anything which makes him safe will be a plus. And yet, after almost a year, after two years living in the bar world, I still am amazed sometimes where guardian angels, even those you don't remember, can make a difference that can change a life - but the questions is: his or mine?
