Checkout time. The worry about Jesse's disappearance has now been replaced with acceptance and we can now begin to grieve. I personally will never forget him or what he did for us that night. These were dark times. One of those hangovers that makes you question your place on this earth and doubt your ability to look after yourself properly.
But what's that shining through the blackness on this actually very sunny day? It's the welcoming beacons of The Five Points cafe and Tara Secrettie! The former fed us monster food again before we set off through downtown and back to Tara's house for the third act in her production of multiple kindnesses.
Free bed and board, pizza, cookies and cable TV whilst she went to ferry her son to baseball practice - this was a very American day and amazing to boot.
We fell asleep watching Sly (but more importantly John Lythgoe)in Cliffhanger, which gave me the opportunity to watch some football on one of the many many channels and nearly explode at the most annoying commentary of all time!
Later on we were joined by Bridget, Seth and Megan for a most wholesome game of Apples to Apples. This passed off without incident and the need for a violent bloodbath was eliminated. Seth ran away with the title, proving that Americans (and Owen) don't know anything about anything! It was great and just what we needed before the longest drive of our short young lives.
I can't find any photos from this day. Instead look at this clip (in Spanish of course) and watch the old man's face at 3:20 and 3:40 .....He is clearly relishing the prospect of that young ladies' death with extreme relish and almost sexual excitement!
