Last night, I had

Last night, I had an experience I haven't had in years. I got a ride home.

Brendan, the crazy proprietor of Pizzakaya, had driven out to Chiba for supplies before going to the restaurant for work. When we arrived for our usual Wednesday night pizza fest, he told me and Tod that he'd give us a ride home.

So I found myself sitting in the backseat of a 1991 Diamante, riding along streets I've often walked. Brendan braked to a stop at to our door and we hopped out. How very luxurious!
