RE: A bartender writes on being a deliberate man
I've never been a fan of the night life. Out here, though, night life can get quite interesting. It is advisable to carry a powerful flashlight and a more powerful pistol due to the wildlife in the woods.
I jest, mostly. But when I lived in town, I never saw the appeal of the barfly life. My first apartment was next door to a middle aged woman who spent every day in the local tavern, and came home very noisily in the wee hours of the morning, often having an argument with whoever accompanied her for the evening. Not at all appealing.
Now if you’re out in the woods I’d say it’s foolish not to go armed at a minimum. Too many people around the world are disappearing and I don’t think they’re simply relaxing in Tír na nÓg (but that’s a whole different post and topic)
In regards to your old neighbour her lifestyle choices are all too common even if one sober realistic glance shows their hollowness. After you get past how unappealing some people’s choices are and how much they annoyingly impose themselves on everyone around them all you’re left with is feeling sorry for them.
