Starting My Day the Right Way

"Hope you're doing great so far this term!  Take a break and enjoy this little treat.  Return the egg to the service desk, so we can refill and hide it again!  P.S. We only use sealed mini chocolate bars in the eggs."

This morning as I walked towards my cubicle, I noticed a colored plastic egg sitting on a table.  First I thought "wow, that's random; who brings an egg to the library?"  Then I noticed there were other colored eggs scattered on various tables in the vicinity.  As I entered the cubicle section, I saw one on the desk of the first cubicle.  This got my hopes up that there would be one waiting for me on my desk.

Today is apparently not my day - no egg.  But since it was 8am and there were less than a handful of people in the library, I took the egg from the first cubicle and opened it.  If it had anything with peanuts/coconut/peanut butter, I was going to put it back.  Unfortunately for the person who will eventually sit in the cubicle*, it had a Milky Way Midnight inside.  For those who don't know, this has been a long time favorite of mine.  My mom and SILs would send me a bag or some bars when I lived in Ethiopia.  At that time, I was very good at rationing my supply and even had extras when it was time to leave.  Now: I devoured it in an instant.

While Mulford is no KSL, it does have its perks.  By perks I mean it gives out free candy multiple times a semester.

*It's currently 9:12am and no one has sat in that cubicle.  I do not feel sorry for my actions.

  1. What a nice surprise! If it had been me I probably would have stolen TWO eggs - so you shouldn't feel bad at all!

  2. I agree with Jessica, you are way too nice. I would have taken at least two eggs and wouldn't have felt bad at all!
