Sarah took me shopping the other day. Her treat. (Thank you again, Sarah, that was fun!) She insisted on paying for the things I picked out - a beautiful bedspread and matching curtains, some empty shadowbox style picture frames (I love that new (old) style) for me to fill myself, a teeny little red velvet cushioned stepping stool for Joel to use to climb up on my bed (he can't make it without help from mik and mal) and a gorgeous black shower curtain!
What the hell was I thinking picking out a black shower curtain? I hung it tonight and stood back to look at it after I tied back the outer curtains... Black! Black as night! Scary! Even that woman in Psycho didn't have to get attacked behind a jet black shower curtain!
This curtain talked to me, it did! It said, "Come in, come in, child don't stand out there all night.. we have things to do, places to go, don't even think about it, just hop right in!" The hell I will! It's Black, Dark, and did I say scary? And if the thing scares me, what the hell will it say to Mikyla or Mallory or Joel? I bet you a donut it'll say "RUN!!!!!" to them.. I bet there's no amount of Strawberry Shortcake bubbles in Walmart that could convince them to use that tub so long as that Funeraly Homeish curtain is hanging there like that.
What the HELL was I thinking!!!
