Wednesday - Meeting up for Root Beers
Jan. 31st, 2007 04:57 pmToday on my drive into work, I was thinking about Colton, the step-grandson of a woman I used to work with. Pam did not use the word "step" when she referred to Colton; in her mind, she just skipped having children herself and went strait to being a grandmother by marrying Colton's grandfather. It's the easiest and best way to become a grandmother, if you think about it.
I haven't thought of Colton in years, but this morning I found myself behind an SUV with a sticker on the rear window that consisted of a picture of a baseball with the name "Colton" underneath it. I haven't met many kids named Colton, so this brought to mind Pam's grandson. It's a good thing, too: I can't let myself forget him, because he and I have a date. We are to meet up for root beers in the year 2015, or possibly real beers in the year 2018. We shook on it six years ago, and he promised to be there. The drinks are on me if he shows up. In fact, I would do anything to pick up that tab, because according to Colton's doctors he is not expected to live until then.
