Digital

At the end of mine and Danny's honeymoon we stayed a night at his grandparents house so they could drive us to the airport in the morning.

That evening they took us out to dinner to congratulate us as newlyweds. At Dinner Danny's grandma talked to us about Danny's career. She was a drama teacher in Pales Verde's and in touch with many agents. She already had one picked out for Danny, she really thought he would be the next Brad Pitt. She talked to us through dinner and worked to convince us to move to California and try the acting gig. Though she was persistent we explained to her that we wanted to stay in Utah and figure things out for a while before deciding on a career. Throughout dinner Danny's grandpa chimed in to agree with his wife and coxing us into become Hollywood residents but he could tell we weren't too interested.

At the time Danny's grandpa was struggling with dementia and Alzheimer's. Throughout dinner I would look up to see him staring at me intently with one eye closed, his mouth formed in a tight circle slightly opened, his hand close to his face with his pointer finger shaped like a hook. And hook it was, for he was a pirate! What a fun night we had. Though his grandpa was a little out of it, he was hilarious and had a great sense of humor. We would laugh when the pirate would return to our conversation throughout the night, always with one eye closed and the other wide open staring me down.

When we finished dinner and were walking to the car Danny's grandpa stopped in the middle of the parking lot and very seriously explained to Danny that his best career choice would be in "DIGITAL." The conversation went as follows...

"Grandpa, what do you mean digital?"

"You know, Digital!

Up down, on-off, black-white, digital."

"Oh digital.?"

Danny and I looked at each deciding whether we should laugh or agree with him, for he clearly was not all there.

Throughout the drive back to their house his grandpa continued to repeat digital things. We were squeezing each others hands in the back seat trying not to bust out laughing. He continued to tell us that if we wanted to get anywhere in life or make any money then we should get into digital. "up-down, on-off, digital."

Well grandpa Hunter after years of laughing at that conversation we have finally decided that we are going to take your advice, and with that Danny is now pursuing DIGITAL.
