Would love a gift card

If romantic love was a store, it would be Holt Renfrew. Which means to say, I have never really shopped there. I can't afford it. I walk in every time with high hopes and a lot of savings, but never enough. In fact when I walk into the store, everybody in there already knows I don't have what it takes to make a purchase, so they don't pay much attention to me. They just wait until I leave. Or they tell me kindly their store is closed. They'll re-open tomorrow morning when I'm not there, no doubt.


So I walk into Club Monaco feeling pretty good about myself: HR was really overpriced, who do they think they are? Nothing at Club Monaco fits me properly, who am I kidding? My shoulders are too broad, but so is my stomach. Felt nice while I was buying though. They were so nice to me. Deep down they knew I was making a bad purchase from the beginning, we were a bad fit. But I hold my breath and try her on. She's suffocating me. I'm stretching her limits. This isn't going to last past the summer.


I used to wish things were different, like love wasn't a store, and I didn't have to shop, and somebody would want to purchase me! But I guess I got what I expected. I suffocated her, she stretched my limits. It didn't last past the summer.

Now I'm broke and don't know if there's the right store for me. Maybe there will be sales online? I just want a gift card.
