A meeting

Posted at 10:28 pm on Wednesday, January 7, 2009, in Uncategorized, and tagged .

I met with this guy last night. We sat at a table in the nearby Starbucks for ninety minutes or so. I didn’t order a coffee, although he offered to buy me one. I am not a “coffee-person,” I never have been, but it has never been easy turning down coffee. It is still not socially acceptable, like not smoking in the sixties. Afterward, I shook his hand, although he said he probably shouldn’t because he was sick and had been coughing into his hand. I told him that it was alright, and he thanked me. He asked me to be sure to wash my hands when I got home. I did.

    Quite the opposite; I frequent coffee shops for the aroma and good people.
