remember that store?
claire's bought them out...in 1999...which takes me to the artist formerly known as...who along with that whole Y2K waste of money, time and resources...convinced us that the world was going to end at the stroke of midnight...or at least shortly thereafter...with the expected chaos...i was not out partying like it was 1999...i was sitting in the house on the couch with my then boyfriend tuned in to cnn thinking we'd see all these news reports of the world ending one time zone at a time...
anyway...back to the store...they sold accessories...you know earrings and watches and necklaces and bracelets and purses and scarves...and such...all the things that you could use to complete a look after you've bought an outfit...the last thing you would buy...
or...in other words...not anything that you really need...things that you could really actually do without...if we're being honest...
and let's be honest...i don't answer your calls because you call me at the oddest times....at 941p on saturday...at 1018p on wednesday night....at 813p on friday evening...
as if you'd done everything else you'd wanted to do that day...been everywhere you needed to go...seen all the people that you wanted to see..conversed with everyone else that you needed to talk to...
and finally....you get around to me...
as if i was the last thing on your mind...
an afterthought even....

wow! what a poignant thought...I blogged about "Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option." (quoted by Unknown) recnetly and you are talking about afterthoughts...I think everyone is getting tired of being the "but" at the end of the sentence...Great post!
That was simply beautiful....
