This is my favorite coffee mug. A good friend gave it to me years ago and I use it every day (the handle doubles as a clip for handy transport).
Last week, I forgot that I left it outside the campus bookstore. When I realized this morning what I'd done, I was heartbroken. Then I went down to look for it--sure enough, right where I left it. Whether folks left it alone because they don't drink coffee or didn't want an old coffee mug, the
fact remains that no one threw it away or bothered it. This is a weird place to live, but the people are some of the most honest (and kind, often) that I've met.
