“Have a great day!” Well, I hadn’t stopped to wonder if I was having a great day or not, until Sheila said that to me, requiring me by her imperative to have a great day.
I realized, then, that I was not having a great day, that I ‘d never had a day I’d be willing to describe as any better than “very good,” and that the odds of my having a great day any time in the near future were pretty low. But I looked at Sheila and said, “Yes, I am now having a very great day today.”
She regarded me oddly and we never spoke again. <END>
