So, I did a neighbor a favour last week. I blew out the end of her driveway just after the snowplow came by. It was buried pretty deep and it seemed like it was the decent thing to do. As I was working, she and I exchanged glances but, from her smile, it seemed that she had something on her mind.
I finished the driveway, and she walked up and stood by me pretty closely and thanked me and then added "Is there anything I can give you?". I paused for a moment and said something like it was my pleasure to help. She said slowly and with a smile, "are you sure?". Once again, I declined. It never occured to me that she might have been offering something other than hot coco. Maybe my other head was reading something into the offer, but I got the distinct feeling that there was an adventure at hand. She and I are both married (to other people). She isn't bad looking and is a little younger than me. What would guys have done if you were in my shoes?
