Last night, I was at CVS

Carol and I had to change doctors. Insurance made us do it. And while there, we had to get new prescriptions. I was heading for the check out stand when I saw Mike Capp. He and I used to work together at a local hospital. In fact, I got him the job. At first,I didn't recognize him. I called out," Mike," and he replied. He had changed over the years, twenty plus. So, I suppose I might not have been as easy to recognize either.
We shook hands. He had been drinking. This was something I had not expected. He was slightly tipsy. I could smell the booze on his breath. He slapped me on the back, saying," He was always a hard worker." Well, I had to work hard. I was handica[pped, and nothing came easy for me. He then left the drug store.
