Animal Crackers

I ate lunch by myself today, with the VP Finance and the Manager of Finance sitting at the next table, deep in discussion.

I had animal crackers. It is impossible to eat animal crackers without sizing up the animal, and making him dance. I made my rhino walk over all the other crackers. I made my bunny hop across the ziplock bag. Then I got an owl. "Who?" I whispered, glancing over at the other table. They didn't seem to notice. I ate the owl. That's the last time I eat animal crackers by myself.
