When I asked Dolores about her collection of sunglasses on a shelf in her office, she told me that it’s bright when she comes in, dark when she goes home, so she often forgets her sunglasses, and then wears another pair when she comes in the following morning. Her collection of sunglasses and explanation for it reminded me of the first line to ZZ Top’s song “Cheap Sunglasses”:
“When you wake up in the morning and the light is hurt your head
The first thing you do when you get up out of bed
Is hit that streets a-runnin’ and try to beat the masses
And go get yourself some cheap sunglasses”

This gave me a smile for today. Thank you.
Thanks, Susan! Always pleased when I make you smile;)
Cute story–I really enjoy your writing.
Thanks!
Reminded me of my mum. Just before she died, she gave me her car. It took me a while to begin driving it, but when I did, the glove compartment was full of different pairs of sunglasses. It made me laugh out loud when I found them, as it was just so typical of her; always prepared ‘just in case’. Thank you for reminding me of that happy discovery and memory.
You are very welcome, Julia! Thanks!
