ESSAY: 'A pang ricocheted around my heart. An actual pang, I tell you, because our days of three-ring-binders are over.”
One late afternoon last week, I figured I might think about starting in on that morning’s work. Owing to my inadvertent lifelong impersonation of a sloth, I was behind on everything. So, of course, I decreed it Top Priority to empty my inbox.
Until that pang, if you'd asked me what I missed about the full nest epoch, then I would have said that I missed, almost exclusively, my sons' mini-iterations. Their previous little charming selves. This pang, however, signaled an epiphany. What I also miss, it appears, is school supplies.Glue sticks, for month-long projects such as Revolutionary War dioramas on which work would not begin until just about suppertime the night before the due date.I loved these provisions.
What’s a bit odd is that my devotion to buying school supplies is distinctly off-brand. I despise shopping. I'm even more obnoxiously hostile in retail environments than I am, well, everywhere else. Having fashioned a life-long religion out of making-do, I’ve also never met a penny I couldn’t pinch. Plus, remember, sloth? Unlike natural-born shoppers, slowness to the point of motionless stupor is how I roll.
