Came across a dog without an owner on the trail today. It was chewing on a long-dead rodent. I could see someone ahead in the trees.
โ€œExcuse me, is this your dog?โ€
โ€œMaybe.โ€
โ€œItโ€™s black and white?โ€

โ€œWell, it looks like itโ€™s chewing on something.โ€
โ€œMaybe!โ€
Turns out, the dog was named Maybe.

Every time I ask for a โ€œmedium burnout,โ€ it feels like both a coffee order and a description of how my week is going.
