When arriving in a new town, Lexie’s first order of business was usually finding the local watering hole. Drinking wasn’t the only thing on her mind, though she did enjoy throwing back a shot or two. In her experience, bars were usually the best way to get a feel for the town in question. The more blue collar, the better. It was there you could hear about gripes and complaints, places to avoid and the people to watch out for. It was also where you could make connections, establish a presence with someone who might be able to help you out down the road. Lexie might not have been the best at planning for the long term, but making entrance was something she excelled in.
The moment Lexie walked into The Long Way Down, she knew she was right where she needed to be. It wouldn’t have been a stretch to go so far as to say that she felt overwhelmingly at home. “Let’s see,” she said as she slid up to the bar, pushing her latest credit card toward the bartender. “Three shots of moonshine and a pint of whatever IPA you have on tap.” The bartender raised his an eyebrow, appraising her order, before setting up the tab and starting on her drinks. Yes, her aim was to get good and drunk this fine Friday evening. As if being completely overdressed wasn’t enough of a clue to that point. |
