It's taken me fifty years

One morning, when I was in grammar school, a girl in my class came in wearing a denim jacket she'd bought from a charity shop. I loved that jacket and I wanted one the same.

Fifty years later I've got one. And it's from a charity shop.
I'm going to have to find my old CND badges for appropriate decoration.

I remember jeans jackets in school. I always wanted one but never got one. I bought several for my daughter from thrift stores but after I got older, I never thought much about one of my own again. You look darling in yours. Maybe I will get one for fall. Just like chucks, they never seem to go out of style.
