a dollar on the ground

| March 9th, 2007

I’m sitting here in Caribou Coffee at The Greene right now, next to a window facing the front, and right outside on the ground is a dollar bill that someone dropped. I noticed it about 5 minutes ago, and I was tempted for a second to go out there and pick it up. If it was a twenty, I’d do it, but it’s only a buck. What I find so interesting is that I’ve counted 10 people who have walked right past it, 3 of them almost stepping on it. It’s as if people aren’t looking where they’re walking. Craziness.

Well, I guess I spoke too soon. Two girls just walked out the door, turned left, and one of them spotted it. My chance for a free buck is gone. At least she seemed happy to find it.
