but then there were cookies

i was having a shitty morning, i spilled coffee on myself in the car
on the way to work. i cursed a lot at the next stop light. i had
nothing in the car, no wipes, no water, no napkins. i got more and
more furious while driving as i watched the stain dry and set in.
when i got in the building, i went to the kitchen to try to wash out
the stain on my pants. i scrubbed it with a sponge, making a big wet
spot. as i was drying it off with a paper towel, i noticed a box on
the microwave. it had a note on it: "this box is a victim of my kids
refusing to try new things. help yourself and enjoy". it was a box
of soft & chewy chocolate chip cookies that you put in the microwave.
there was one pack of two cookies left in the box. i followed the
instructions, and they came out warm, soft and chewy. i took some
skim milk form the fridge (even though it's for coffee only!) because
you just need milk with cookies. they were great, for microwave
cookies. and after that i felt much better.
