Went out for groceries, including a couple 5-gallon water jugs. At the checkout, the lovely person at the register says Hi ma’am, pretends not to notice my 5 o’clock shadow that my makeup has for hours failed to hide, tells me she loves my bracelet, and then tells the young men helping bag items to “help this nice lady with her water”.
I’ll be hanging onto that. She was an angel.
Share your stories too, however seemingly silly or gloriously gargantuan!


I went out to update my ID in boymode today. There were some administrative trouble with categorisation of documents, and when the clerk that I was talking with got help she referred to me as “This young lady” and I had to try not to melt at the desk. I’m still smiling thinking about it most of the day later.
