Sub-marina

A tale from my most recent trip to the Marina:

In the bed of my pickup, parked on Chestnut and Scott Streets, were two white plastic bags full of clothes. I had intended to drop these items off at Goodwill, but upon the discovery that they were closed for the evening, I decided to leave the bags overnight. Should someone happen upon the potentially desireable booty and take it - I thought - fine. If not, it would go to Goodwill in the morning.

When I came upon my truck this morning, I found that not only were my bags still safely stowed in the truckbed, there were two, new, *black* trash bags full of sweaters and pants.

Only in the Marina.

also good to note- in front of us in line at the Noah's bagel this morning, a young couple argued about whether or not to take a four-day vacation in Telluride. The girl felt that she was being "guilted into it."

That's so incredibly funny I almost fell down! New bags of used clothes!? Whew! I miss you, dear, and wish you were here. Guilt your mom into giving you $900 to walk the Seine with me on Bastille Day.

That's hysterical. Why is it so freakin' hard to get rid of old clothes? I have a trunk full of old clothes that I've been trying to lose for months. Months, mind you.
