Day 19: Pay it Forward

The weekends are supposed to be my chance to do one of the "bigger" things planned for my 60 Days. Today, however, I was slightly out of commission.

After a fun night of fireworks, drinking, and meeting new people, I was feeling less than stellar this morning. I had yet another BBQ/housewarming to attend today and was also invited to go on a party boat. I had an all white outfit picked out for the party boat, but wound up too tired to do much of anything.

So, on my way to the BBQ (where I spent a total of 50 minutes), I stopped at Dunkin Donuts to grab myself an iced coffee. After paying for my drink, I asked the guy at the window if I could pay for the coffee of the woman behind me. After giving me a funny look, he said, "OK, sure." I also asked him to tell her to have a nice day. While stopped at a red light, the woman pulled up next to me, honked, and offered a friendly wave and smile. Hopefully, it made her day just a little brighter, and hopefully, she was able to return the favor to the person behind her.
