Really

REALLY ! I was enjoying perusing men’s shirts at my regular thrift store ~ my husband had a million shirts but in my little head you could never have too many. That afternoon I had met up with my long-time buddy and he was searching a few feet away for his own treasures. Out of the blue this stranger blurted something out to me, I didn’t recognize her and I didn’t understand what she was saying. She repeated something about the shirts I was looking at but it didn’t make sense to me so I casually smiled and went on my merry way. It took a while to realize that I did know her and that she had made reference to my husband... and that strange tone she took with me was the same as if she had caught ‘my friend and I’ sneaking out of a seedy rent-by-the-hour motel room. What?! I don’t know if I was more insulted by the insinuation that my husband had a cheating wife or that I didn’t deserve better than being taken out to a thrift store. . people will think . what they will . no rhyme or reason AP: Honorable Mention 2021 Posted on February 13, 2021
