deli story
So last week, I was having a particularly bad day. I'd just gotten out of a frustrating meeting for the campus weekly magazine, and was walking home trying to cheer myself up and failing miserably. I walked by the deli, and it was four o'clock, closing time. Bob was in the window, lifting a tray of cookies out to be put away for the day. I smiled and kept walking, but suddenly I heard the screen door creak open. "Excuse me," he said, poking his head out the door. I spun around, feeling something good was about to happen. And it was. "I have one spice cookie left," he said, "and it's the last one of the season." They only make spice cookies in the cold months, or else the icing melts when they leave them in the window. I usually ordered a spice cookie about twice a week, so the last one of the season was a big deal. I followed Bob inside. "I'll give it to you for free," he said. "Otherwise I'd have to eat it myself." "You're wonderful!" I said, in my cookie-induced glee. "I wouldn't go that far," he said. "I'm nice, but I'm not wonderful."
