One hand strayed to his left cheekbone, hovered there tentatively, wandered to the bridge of his nose, and from there dropped inertly to the bed. ’Lordy me! I must have been drunk last night, ’ he said aloud, mechanically taking he straight line of logic from effect to cause, as much experience had taught him to do.
