Sometimes, you come around a corner at Cost Plus and see the absolute perfect gift for the person you’re going to see later that day, and you do a little dance in the aisle and almost knock over a display of champagne bottles, compose yourself, and snatch the box up with the aplomb of a pirate claiming her share of sweet sweet booty after the battle is done.
The only thing better is when you give the gift, and the recipient starts laughing in disbelief and sheer untrammeled glee.
Of such small things are friendships made.
