    Strolling down Oxford Street in all its beautiful eclectic grottiness, I paused past the liquor store’s sign “Lick Her here.” A mischievous smile overtook my face as distant memories came effervescing to the surface.

    The car slowed, and the road was empty. Moving into the emergency lane, I turned the hazard lights on and the car off. There was an empty gas can in the back and sneakers. I locked the door and began to walk down I-20. I had gotten off work at lunch to be at home over labor day weekend. It was now two o’clock, and I was in the middle of upstate Louisiana. The sign said the next exit was a mile and a half away. Though it was almost fall, it was still very hot, per usual down here. My immunity
