I had another plan for tonight, but then it was a beautiful, rainy evening and I wanted somebody else to do the work for me. So I texted my pal Barnes and went down to say hi to him at South Seas Cocktail Lounge. The name 'Barnes' may ring a bell—he made me a beautiful … Continue reading Ginuary 28th: the Twenty-Eighth.
