That's the positive spin I am putting on my brake light that kept turning itself back on the last few days until it drained my battery and I had to get a very pricey new one delivered to my house. At the same time that I noticed my dead car, I realized that when you park under certain trees in Texas when it rains, they cover your car in sap. Yuck. After a 3 hour venture to find a car wash open in the rain and grocery shopping during the busiest time of day I came home in need of calm repetitive motions. So I reduced all prices on and jewelry. We're talking 60% - 75% off the original prices here! Take a few minutes to browse through the sales and take advantage of my stressful day...stock your gift closet for the upcoming season of needing last minute gifts or just buy yourself something pretty...because you're awesome and have most likely had a bad day recently as well.
I have a magical brake light
