Chapter 14After Daniel went looking for Lisa Sunday, I stopped in at the Lazy Eight, but took it easy on the booze. Danced a little, shot some pool, and drunk a little. Boots went home with me, and I took her back to her place the next morning after a healthy round of s*x. I don’t know how she made it to work on Monday mornings looking halfway decent. I worked around the house until Friday morning, and then drove to town and bought me a new pickup. Cleaned out most of my savings and put a lot of the cost on the tick, but the old truck was about spent. My uncle signed the title to the old pickup over to me, and moved the rest of his things out of the house. Seems like he’d made a permanent connection with his girlfriend. The place was mine now, as much as any home on a reservation can be.
