12/29/08 Jumpin' Jupiter

Let's just remember the good times,
the 30 seconds it took to lose like seventy bucks
at the blackjack table at Jorgy's,
the bargain basement shots at the Lonesome Dove,
the birthday boy's faceplant into the snowbank
while all the kids watched through the open door.

Good times, and a delicious Slippery Saturn to boot,
but I still wish I was somewhere else.
