One day you go out and buy two shirts. One catches your eye immediately and its one that you could use to cruise on special occasions. The other is maybe a bit a plain but you’ll wear it on your lonesome or during errands. It is literally a beater – you don’t pamper it all – you just use it and never think twice. You can wear it when you are sick. The first shirt – well, it holds out for a “special occasion” – you take care of it and treat it well.
Once the “cruising” day comes you don your fancy shirt and skip off into the town. Maybe it doesn’t happen in the first hour or the second but at some point you realize that you’d rather be wearing the other one. In fact, the other one feels more like you than the fancy one ever will.
How come we aren’t supposed share our birthday wishes? All of mine usually involve spending time with someone I consider significant. It seems to me if I never say anything, it would never happen. Than again, I say things all the time and nothing seems to happen.
