This Waitress Is So Sweet

Waitress: “Is everything okay?”

Me: “Yeah, I’m jus’… ‘s jus’… tired. An’ dizzy.”

Waitress: *To my girlfriend* “Is she diabetic?”

Girlfriend: “No. I think she just needed to sit down; we’ve been on our feet all day. Could we have a menu?”

Waitress: “I’ll be right back.”

She hurried off and came back a minute later with a menu… and a small bowl of vanilla ice cream for me. Once I got my head up, I downed it in a heartbeat, and by the time we were ready to order, I already felt better. When the bill came, the ice cream had been left off. We left her a good tip.
