Last night I found a drinking buddy whose claim to fame is that he got me signed up on the Beer Card program at Old Chicago's. He came up to our Area Manager today, "Did you know that Caitlin is a beer connoisseur?" Jason thought Will was joking, then paused to reconsider his image of me. I had to reassure him that one can remain "sweet and innocent" after one beer.
I drove home late last night very sad. When I was not looking this man came and talked beer with me, shared his beer in fact, and it was not you. It was not you! That meant there was someone else.
I don't remember if I cried when the sadness of that fact soaked in far past the relief that this was one hurdle behind me.
