Espresso

 I bring smiles to people.  Some frowns.  Mostly grins though.  Today, I dropped off a package to a lady who was parked in her driveway.  She was wearing military fatigues. Green ones.  Her name tag indicated "Air Force."


I dismounted my mail truck, and brought it to her, stating my usual, "Special delivery for the world-famous so-and-so!"


I saw the happiness from her eyes before I caught her wide smile.  Her eyes were open, like mad saucers.


She said, "Oh, I've been waiting for this!"


I told her I was happy to deliver.


She said, "It's my espressoooooiioo!  WHEEEEEEEE!"


I shit you not.


My first thought was, maybe I shouldn't deliver this one.  Somebody had to cut her off.


But, I did, and moved on to capture this joyful moment.
