So friends, its official, I am heartbroken. BORDERS is closed and I have officially lost my hideaway. Gone are the days when I would get lost in the biography section, or feed my addiction with a beautiful cookbook, or just wander around the store taking in the peace and quiet that comes with being surrounded by books. So I went one last time, to stock up on some books, so I wouldn't have to quit this place cold turkey. That the goodbye wouldn't really be official until I finished my last book. And although I have to admit being my mother's daughter and loving a good deal, there was just something about it that also felt like highway robbery.
I probably would have spent/saved a lot more, but I had to get to work and also I was running out of arms to hold them all. And there isn't much space left on my bedside table. But in the end, it was well worth it.
Goodbye Borders, thanks for the memories and you will surely be missed!
