"Going" by Amy Hempel

I love the short story "Going" written by Amy Hempel. In such a short story she was able to tell so much her Character. I also like how the story would explain itself on how and why each thing happened and the story starts off good right off the bat he is in the hospital and he wakes up noticing that there's a typo on the menu when he wakes up, instead of being concerned about his own health and what had happened in 2 days he was pretty calm to be just waking up. Another thing i liked about the story and like the connection of the binoculars while driving : two ways. Sometimes you can have two feelings at once and can be difficult to describe and Binoculars while driving (fast and slow, far and close all at the same time)is a great way to describe that feeling. Amy also made her character very interesting in a way that he had a bit of mystery behind him. The last thing he remembers was seeing a scorpion sting itself to death cause the bartender put tequila on its tail and then when he was leaving the man asked where he was going and he simply responded he was just "Going"... but Why 2 days of memory loss i still didn't get why 2 days?
