Wonderful!

Last weekend I was helping with an emergency dejunking of a neighbor's house.  

I was taking load after load of trash out to the dumpster behind the house.  It was kind of hot and I was kind of tired and the bags were getting heavy.

But the junk kept on coming and so I kept on taking it out. 

Then, as I was taking a particularly large and lumpy bag out, I heard:

You're wonderful! 

 It took half a second before I realized it was coming from the bag.  But that didn't diminish the good feeling I had inside knowing that at least the toys in the bag thought I was a good person.  Then came

Will you be my friend?

That wasn't quite as flattering.

I continued on my path to the dumpster and the bag kept validating me and asking to be my friend

I felt kind of guilty leaving the thing there, but I did it anyway.

The bag is still there being cheerful and lonely forever*
