Grandpa is Drunk  I'm deer hunting at Grandpa and Grandma Redding's old farm. I'm using a small bow with wooden arrows. There is another bow there, with single strings. I see some deer out by the pine trees near the mailbox. I take a bow and arrows out of the case. I walk around the house to the big porch, where the deer were walking. I get there and my friends Stephen and Franco Ramos are there. The deer walk really close by. I'm not sure if it's okay for me to shoot. Stephen looks with bulging eyes, indicating to me I should shoot, but he doesn't say anything. I pull back the bow and shoot at one of the two does from my hip. The arrow is short: 12-16 inches long. I hit the deer high on the hindquarter. It runs away. It will live, which makes me glad because I don't want to wound a deer. Grandpa calls in the deer, and says we hit one but it got away. He plays with fishing weights and jigs in his fingers as he talks. I'm really excited about hunting since right away I shot at a deer. I see a big buck with a huge rack! I stalk the deer, waiting for it to move. It gets spooked and runs away. I'm still watching the two does that I shot at from across the field. My grade school classmate Rita Bauer comes and starts chopping up vegetables for a salad. I'm mad that she is making so much noise, and I try to quietly make her leave, which she won't do.  I'm eating dinner with Grandpa, Grandma, my brother Wally, aunt Joanne Redding, and others. Grandpa overeats, eating spaghetti noodles and peas. He gets drunk. He stands up and falls over. Wally catches him. I help Grandpa to the bathroom. He stumbles. I sit him down on the toilet. He falls off the toilet. He vomits into the toilet. I'm wearing rubber gloves while he vomits. I watch him. I remember what my coworker Jerry Parson's friend said about watching someone vomit: that one should see it! Grandpa vomits up the noodles and peas. He won't tell me which toothbrush is his. My aunt Rachel Redding and her son and my cousin Archie Weber are there. Grandma is sleeping. I look for deer using binoculars. There is a gas can on a chair. People clean up the room we are in.
