I work at a small bar just about 15 minutes out of town, up River. It’s very farm and community based.

I came into my busiest shift this last week. It’s a Wednesday night and it’s BINGO night. Draws a heavy crowd, always.

One of my oldest regulars out here (he’s genuinely been coming to this bar at 3pm on the dot his whole life) (and he has a drawl when he speaks), he calls me over and slowly asks me how I know this one girl. I recognize the name but can’t put a face to it.

He pulls out his phone and slowly shows me her Facebook.

• A few years ago I was seeing my maintenance man at my first apartment. We had been dating just about 2ish months but nothing official. But we were exclusive (or so I thought. I had later found out that he had another girlfriend who lived in the same apartment complex.

It’s was her Facebook page that my regular had pulled up.

God bless a small town
