Today the door bell rang and initially it startled me, as it does everytime the door bell rings and I'm not expecting someone. It was a couple who had been walking their dog and noticed that the lights of my courtesy ride*, a bitchin' 2008 Mazda3, were still on.
I didn't know people did things like this. Not, um, anymore i guess - this is fucking 2011, right?
Someone went out of their way, took their own time, to knock on a stranger's door, knowing they might have the wrong house, to save someone the inconvenience of a dead battery. Would they have knocked on my neighbors door? The duplex across the street? I will say "yes", they would have ... and that pleases me greatly.
I thanked them, played it off as if it wasn't a big deal, waited for them to leave and went to turn off the lights.
