No wonder there's always a ringing in it.

Except you left out the part where the guy punched me.

Okay, serious now. I like the way this progressed (seemed) into a span of a life time and then came back to square one.

Thanks. It was enjoyable dear poetess.

Talk is cheap, well said. Especially when diluted by a sleazy drunk.

I'll stick to coffee. Thanks for posting.

Love this one, it brings back memories of the small talk I was part of in my old beer drinking days. Now I often say thank God I done my heavy drinking when I was young. A hangover would be too much for me to handle now. Still it sounds so familiar just listening some drunk trying to carry on a constructive conversation. Cleverly written.
