Women in the store were hoarding the dresses and scarves, collecting in corners auctioning off the last pair of a size 5.5 woman's shoe. One woman was attempting to wear a child's dress because it was all that was left. It felt like this was the female mob and we were pushing weight on the black market. Who needs a human kidney when the coveted blue maxi dress was at stake!
"Are you looking for Missoni?"As I walked around the store looking as if my dog just died, I continued to cross things off my list. I bought the fancy toilet paper because Peter gets mad when I buy the cheap stuff. I looked forward to picking out my first ever bottle of Mrs. Myers hand soap. I'm officially Brooklyn now. I finally cracked a half ass smile when I saw a big bottle of environmentally friendly laundry detergent was on sale.
"Yes!"
"OK follow me.." one said as she burned the shopping cart rubber.
(almost a full out sprint to the vacuum cleaner isle)
"It looks like you only have kids stuff in there"
"I have bedding too!! I don't think I'm taking it either!"
"YES!!" the other yelled.
I text Perry when I got home to tell her of my terrible morning.
Crashed servers.
Maybe I'm not meant to have anything. Maybe I'm throwing Bushwick's biggest pity party and no one's invited. Just me. Here's a look from the collection.
Damnit.
