Join me on a little journey to the 80’s! We were all dressed in our fluorescent sweatshirts with matching socks. MTV ruled the airwaves. And if you didn’t have at least 2 to 3 Swatch watches you were either poor or really lame. I remember having 3 Swatches, but I wanted them ALL. I fantasized about how one day I’d make enough money to buy tons and tons of swatches. Of course this desire has since been replaced by currently wanting every shade of MAC eyeshadow ever made. But with me its always something. Don’t put multiples in front of me…my molecular blueprint makes it impossible for me to not want them all!
However, the “X” watch was always my favorite of the 3. A good friend of mine got it one year for a gift and always thought it was stupid, thus handing it over into my eager little paws. I probably wore it every day for almost a year until a certain Halloween party where I left it with my things. That night it got lifted by my boyfriend, who was always a little bit jealous. He spitefully threw it into a pond. I’m sure its still there today.
I actually spoke with said, boyfriend, from 20 years ago, this week. I happened to mention the incident above, which I guess is why its on my mind. He just laughed and said, “I was really an asshole wasn’t I”? Yea honey…I’m afraid you were!
