This has always been a hard time of year for me....but being here without my family team is making it even harder. Any suggestions on distractions?

I'd say drink, but that'd go against my sobriety.

Volunteer somewhere?

You too, huh?

I could give that a go....might distract me enough.

Oh yes. And since you're familiar with it, there are meetings if you ever want to go.

Pretty sure the shelter does a Thanksgiving dinner for the homeless, people who don't have anyone to celebrate with or can't afford it.

I suppose it would be good for me and Sophie would approve. Could you give me some details?

I might have to look into that. Maybe I could help out or something.

Sophie's your girlfriend? Is she here?

The meetings I go to are at the Catholic church on Wednesdays and Fridays. Start around 8pm. Decent coffee and donuts.

She is my fiance back home. I wish was.

Perfect! I was raised in a Catholic church.

I'm sorry.

Cool. I'm Rosa. If you want to meet up to go to a meeting let me know.

I will be sure to do that!

Thank you.

I completely understand. There are some festivities scheduled around town.

I could give those a go. I just never thought I would miss my people so much. I used to be such a loner.

I know a few people like that.

I'm Pepper. I run the winery. I usually have some kind of festivities going a few times a month. More with the holidays.

It's been some time since I had a glass of wine, so I wouldn't even know where to start.

Well since my fiance isn't here the second one is certainly out of the question.

Mate, some people have been here for years without their partner showing up.

For me that wouldn't matter. I could never cheat on Sophie.

Oh I wouldn't call it boring. She has been the highlight of my life.

Yeah, I miss my team too. I don't think I've been away from them for this long.

This is the first time since we all got together that we have been a part for this long. So, it's a lot to take in.

It really is. I keep hoping they'll show up but no one has so far.

I suppose we can still continue to hope! My friends are always telling me to be more optimistic.

It's all we can do for the moment. And hey, maybe they're right. Everyone should try to be more optimistic once in awhile.

Sorry to hear you're without your team.

It depends on the type of distraction you are looking for. Despite this being a small town, there is no shortage of vices to get lost in if that is your goal.

I've got into my fair share of vices before, but usually my distraction of choice is helping others....I just have an odd way of doing it.

That sounds like a pretty noble distraction to me.

Though, I am curious. What is your odd way of doing it?

I find people that are being taken advantage by the wealthy or corporations and I provide Leverage.

I like to think that I pick up where the law leaves off.
