Subject: The Case of the Missing Muffin
On January 28, at approximately 7:25 A.M. I purchased a Very Blueberry Muffin at Starbucks, located in the lower level of Renaissance Tower. At approximately 7:30 A.M., I arrived in the kitchen in our office. In the process of making my coffee, I set my muffin aside. At approximately 7:35 A.M., I left the kitchen and walked to my office, forgetting to take my muffin with me. I soon became involved with work and did not remember that I had bought a muffin until approximately 10:55 A.M., when I realized I was hungry. After a brief head-scratching (why am I so hungry? Didn't I have breakfast? Oh, right. I bought a muffin. Didn't I eat it? Oh, right. I left it in the kitchen), I returned to the kitchen. THE MUFFIN WAS GONE. After another brief head-scratching (did I leave it somewhere else? Maybe I ate it and forgot?), I asked passers-by whether they had seen an abandoned muffin in the kitchen that morning. The muffin's earlier abandoned presence was confirmed. I can only conclude that someone has taken my muffin, hopefully just for safekeeping.
If you have my muffin, please let me know and I will fetch it. If you have taken it and eaten it, please feel a little guilty (but only a little, as it probably appeared abandoned).
