I Will Get That For You
Never let me know what you collect.
I am the queen of “I’ll give you a gift for your collection”
My daughter collected penguins. I nearly went bankrupt buying them.
She threw them into boxes and gave them to thrift stores in record time.
My sister found a material she liked called frost. I bought all I could find.
She never needs any material again.
I will spend years paying for them.
I learned yesterday that a new friend collects Scooby Doo stuff.
I ordered her a mystery machine mug.
I saw twelve identical mugs on her kitchen counter.
I should be learning a lesson here, but apparently, I am a slow learner
Because today I ordered two stuffed crows for my cousin Charlie.
