Mistress J weighed heavy on my mind. Goddamn her. Her and her wretched games. I brought a bottle of fireball whiskey to my lips and took a prolonged swig. There was no burning sensation as I drank it‚ no bitter flavor or bite. I’d had too much alcohol that night to experience delicate‚ human sensations such as taste.
