I would need someone to drive me home. As I get older, I have a lower tolerance for alcohol. I just can't do it.
Barb, I see what you mean, but I would argue that things have been too swift
with the sister. Her behavior toward the AA counselor was really bad in the beginning and I'm glad the situation is generally rectified, but she still has that attraction to Rafe. I would have preferred slower growth culminating with her beginning a relationship with the AA counselor at the end of the season. I also wanted the AA counselor in the witness protection program and that's how Mary would have been outed to her family about her job!

Commuter train. Wife picks you up at the station. And hands you a Scotch when you get home.
With a bar car.
I was born in the wrong era.
Commuter trains don't escort you from the office to the train station - which I most assuredly would need to do.
I need a limo service with a driver who I can lean on on my way out!
My father worked in the company general office in Chicago in that era. We lived two blocks from the train station and his office was near Union Station.
Of course, he died from complications of alcoholism and emphysema.
We had faux "bar" cars on the LIRR when I used to take it. It was a dude with a cart and he'd roll it off the platform and into the train just before departure.
Though I think it was just beer/wine/soft drinks. No martinis.
My commutes would be much better with a bar car.
Also, with a three martini lunch.
ION - YAY! Leverage night.
