Change

Yesterday, I was racking my brain for an act of service idea.  I know that at some point I am going to repeat myself, but it has barely been a month, so I'm not terribly eager to do so.  I'm also broke, which means buying something that benefits a charity or buying groceries for someone is out of the question.  Not that service has to result from spending money.  It's just that a lot of ideas involve treating someone, or buying gift cards to give to random people.

I thought about going home and making treats for someone, but I knew that the likelihood of this happening on a weeknight was slim, especially since I've had a headache since last week.  All I wanted to do when I got home was spend a little time with my family and go to bed (which is what I did).

Then I remembered that I had some random change in a bowl in my office.  I grabbed some on my way out of the office and headed straight to the vending machine down the hall.  I had no idea how much sodas/water cost (why don't they post prices anymore?), so I just stuck in $1.25 and walked away.  Hopefully someone was pleasantly surprised when they went to get a drink!
