Pockets!
I was railing yesterday how I was pissed off about the $1.30 bottle of water in the vending machine, because guys never carry change around with them for more than day.
Today I stopped for a beverage at McDonald's on my way to class. It was raining, and I toted an umbrella and wore my jacket. (I need to get a new one, by the way.)
My bill came to $1.03. I silently cursed, knowing I'd have to break $2 because there wouldn't be change. Then - a miracle! My jacket. Surely there was change in it.
I fished around the pocket, and I felt the little metallic friends that would be my savior. There were two cents in the pocket. I was a day late and a penny short, and I had to give him two dollars and get 97 cents back in change, because I could not find a third penny.
Oh what a world.
