OMG, I decided to take a walk today. I walked past this new business on the main street - block and a half from my house. Its upstairs to the shop that sells drug paraphenalia (sp?) like bongs and such. The lower level shop is not known for... um... shall we say... better element people. The new business is a CONSIGNMENT SHOP! Advertising jewelry, electronics, etc. OMG, could it be that I've checked EVERY pawn shop in the area but the one where my stuff is? OMG OMG OMG OMG... this one is too close and seems too seedy to be true.

Oh, I forgot to tell everyone that a block down from my house is a methadone clinic, ya know, a place where all the druggies go to get their governmentally provided drug fix? The consigment shop is a few houses away from the meth clinic. Oh yeah, my town is really one of those special places... 'cause right behind me is a crematorium! Woohoo! (maybe hubby is right when he's pressuring me to move.)

You better believe I'll be walking over to the consignment shop tomorrow!
