193. A small glass

After the last text “192. The glass” November 22, I started to think about the size of the glass. I remember clearly that it was a comparatively small glass, which the person at the office gave me. The glass was clearly smaller than an ordinary milk glass. If I shall try to give a measure of the glass, that will be circa 3 inches high, and circa 2 ½ inches wide. These measures are only approximately. I remember that I thought it was a small glass for fizzy lemonade.

What I remember about the contents; is that the person opened up an ordinary small soda pop bottle, with a bottle opener. He went up from the chair and got the bottle out of a cabinet behind the desk. When I think about what it was, I first think about clear carbonated lemonade, or maybe seltzer water (carbonated water) or something similar. I am not sure, but I first think about clear carbonated lemonade. It was an ordinary 12 oz glass bottle (33 cl bottle in Norway) in 1975.

Before the person gave me something to drink, he asked me if he could offer me something to drink. I became surprised, and said yes to be polite to him. He asked me if I liked what he found, and I answered yes.
