The happiest thing on Earth happened in front of me today.

I was sitting at the cafe I am at CONSTANTLY while the weather turned from a balmy 84 to an overcast, hellish downpour of rain. The barista who always takes care of getting me good coffee was wearing shorts. Her boyfriend, seemingly unexpectedly, walks in with his hands behind his back. Then this happened.

Barista: Awww, did you bring me pants because it got cold and rainy?

Boyfriend: No. (pulls flowers out from behind his back)

Barista: ohmygod… no one has ever given me flowers.

They hug. For a long time.

Barista: I hope this feeling lasts for a long time.

Hugging continues.

Barista: Shit… I don’t have a vase. (she pronounces it “vaahz” awesomely)

Both: laughter.
