The hoodygan

On my way walking to the thrift store, a fuuny thing happened. i was stopped. d and r caught up with me on my way to pick up a few things at the local church basement thrift shop.

I really wanted to get a hoody and a couple t shirts. R said if i needed a referral she had 2 but i told her i was okay; i had one ; it was somewhere in my bag.

When we got there we went our separate ways checking out the clothes but then d came up to me and showed me a sweater: " this would look good on you" . " Are you showing me a grandmother sweater?" I guess you could think of it as a cougar sweater . " No, it 's nice."

I spotted a green hoody and got very happy. I tried it on. It fit. Then i saw another hoody, a white one and that one fit even better. I started to put the sweaters on one atop the other under the sweater i was wearing. D came over and looked at me and laughed. "I don`t feel like carrying a bag." " It`s not Macy`s", I said.

When i was done, i walked over to d and r still browsing and said i was done and ready to leave/ " You can't go like that, you've got like 6 layers on; it's the church."

I protested. " I have a referral."

I guess you could say, i looted the place.
