The Girl Who...
Ever since I read the Shopoholic series by Sophie Kinsella, I've secretly hoped to be affectionately referred to as "The Girl Who....." by some group of strangers that sees me on a regular basis. Possibly The Girl Who Wears Nice Shoes, or The Girl With The Cute Laugh (I realize I have a loud and obnoxious laugh and would therefore never be referred to as this, but I can still dream).
Anyway, today I found out that at Pacific Drugs on the corner of 1st and Marion I AM referred to as The Girl Who...only in a moment that probably was not unlike Becky Brandon's (nee Bloomwood) when she found out, after hoping to be referred to as The Girl With the White Coat, The Girl With the Angel Bag, or The Girl Who is Always Kind To Everyone She Meets (among many others), that she was in fact referred to at the quaint gift shop in her parent's town as The Girl With the Ugly Pram. Yes, today I found out I am known as The Girl Who Buys Lots of Candy. Although I can't argue it in sheer truthiness (they have such a variety! Ten flavors of Laffy Taffy, the elusive Jolly Joes, the good kind of cinnamon bears, lemonheads, etc., etc.), it is a little disappointing. |
