Guthrie, pages 152-158

It sounds to me like Guthrie and the gang are in a bar much like Papa's. Guthrie has left Maggie's faculty Christmas party to go have a drink. At the bar he runs into Judy who is bragging about how young she is...yet she has a daughter in college, leading me to draw the conclusion that she had her baby at a young age just like Victoria. Judy wants to sleep with Guthrie. She makes it happen. Later on we discover that Maggie and Guthrie have a thing of some sort so looking back on this chapter, I feel angry for Maggie that Guthrie left her Christmas party and ended up sleeping with another women. Guthrie and Maggie sleep together later in the book so I think that Maggie was withholding sex to give him time to think clearly about Ella. By sleeping with Judy, she has been given an informal invitation to claim what she wants.

There is a man in the bar who just went through detox. Oh boy!

Plethora of cigarettes!
