I'm returning to the workforce and having the hardest time finding good quality, classy, simple shell tops. I've been using this one that is from petite sophisticates, a store that closed like 20 years ago. I need to get some more. Where should I go??
I was thinking today about these times when I was in 6th grade in 1981 and was almost kidnapped from the same Park two separate times. One time it was Memorial Day and I was roller skating home from 7-Eleven past the park with a snack or something and some dude pulled up in front of me, rolled down his automatic window, looked across the seat at me over his sunglasses, fanned out a huge handful of $100 bills and told me to get in the car if I wanted to make some money. I don't think the wheels on my roller skates ever moved faster than when I hauled ass away from that car.
Same park a couple months later and I was wandering around the Rose garden. I was a dreamy little kid. Some old dude walked up to me and started talking to me about the flowers and at first I thought he was really nice and then I got a vibe. I started to walk home and he kept circling the blocks that I was on over and over again all the way until I got home. He parked outside of my house until I called the cops and they made him leave.
I was 11 years old in 6th grade. It wasn't until I was older that I realized that this was just a sampling and that men were going to treat me like that for years. This wasn't a big scary Park in an urban area. This was in a town of 50,000 people. Just men out there prowling for victims. Did you ladies have similar experiences? I've thought many times how lucky I am because I came so close so many times to not being lucky.
Edited a typo
The way the racoons sound like they are killing each other every night lately suggests we are going to have about a billion raccoon babies in this county in a couple months...
