Just a few problem standing in the way of me and my true love. At 24" it is way too small. I need something almost twice the size but worse, the closest thing I could find in the size I need made my wallet hurt just thinking of buying it. At $1500 plus, even I can't justify that purchase. As any normal sane person would I went through the stages of grief.
Denial. No, surely if I look harder I will find a convex mirror in the right size for the right price. Must look harder. Everywhere.
Anger. What the hell? Why is it when I want something I can never find it in the US. If l was back in Sweden I bet people would stop me on the street to give me their convex mirrors.
Bargaining. Okay. Maybe I can make it myself? Or maybe I buy the mirror and I'll just reupholster the two couches in the living room myself. Sure, I've never done that before but I could learn. I mean that would save a lot of money and then the mirror really wouldn't be that expensive. In fact, I'd probably save money this way.
Depression. Let's face it. I can't reupholster the couches. They are tufted and awesome and I'll never forgive myself if I screw them up. Which I will. Sigh.
Acceptance. Convex mirror. You and I weren't meant to be together. There is another mirror out there. Sure it may not be as fabulous as you are but it will have other things going for it and I will love it just as much. Well.. almost as much.
So for now the hunt goes on. I have flirted with Crate and Barrel's Malachy
and Zgallerie's Devon
But I'm not ready to pull the trigger yet. I guess I'll know the right one when I see it.
