Going dotty
Stripes used to be my thing. Actually, they still are. It doesn’t matter how many times I tell myself when I’m out shopping I have enough black and white stripy t-shirts, I still come home with more.
Then I discovered dots. Polka dots, to be specific. I’ve got a red and white polka dot dressing gown, a red and white polka dot purse, a red and white polka dot bag, black and white polka dot sandals and I did have a black and white polka dot dress but I couldn’t get the zip undone after being in the pub on New Year’s Eve so I cut it off with a pair of scissors and replaced it with a polka dot dress in orange and black.
Now I’ve got a red and white polka dot Kindle case. I needed a case for my Kindle Fire HD as I didn’t want to break the screen by bashing it when I fell off my bike drunk like I did to my Kindle Keyboard (although Amazon, bless ‘em, replaced it the very next day).
This case is great. It’s sturdy and protective and all that kind of stuff but what I like best about it is you can stand it up so you can read or watch videos or whatever when you’re eating (unless you’re one of those people who talk around the dinner table, in which case, you probably think it’s rude to read while eating).
Obviously, though, what I really like best about it is the red and white polka dots.
