Broken Mug
In my new place, I kept a mug in the bathroom. It was inherited from the folks and it said "DO A KAHLUA." It was not age-appropriate.
I woke up one morning and found the mug in the bathroom trashcan. Curious, I pulled it out, only to find that it had been broken in half. My mind went "Huh." Then it went "I wonder if the the family will mention it."
Two weeks went by and I didn't hear anything about it. I didn't want to ask them about the Case of the Broken Mug because I didn't have that much emotional attachment to it, accidents happen especially when you live in a small house with a 4 1/2 year old, and I didn't want any bad karma between us.
But I arrived home today and the 8 year old gave me this-
Cool! A new mug and an acknowledgement of my Recent Graduation.
I also got a letter from Nordstroms thanking me for my application and apologizing for not having any employment opportunities at this time. So it goes.
