Good! I like the way you relate it to other stuff you've been through...making it sort of impersonal using the pronoun "you" actually seemed to make it MORE personal. So good!

I have lived 49 years without a watch around my wrist. Now, I feel like I have missed something. Interesting take on an ordinary item. Well done.

watches, i think that i've gone through at least fifteen in my lifetime!

I know EXACTLY what you mean- when I don't have my watch on I feel the need to know what time it is every 2 minutes, and it drives me insane! Also what you said about the necklace... my locket that I wear all the time came unfastened today without me noticing and I've lost the pendant bit, and I keep going to fiddle with it and it's not there, and then I feel all sad... I'll stop rambling now!

Lol, well you've certainly brought it into perspective. I think about that kinda stuff too...I'm getting my watch fixed soon, yay!

Sounds kind of silly, but...it's true. I look at my arm for the time even when my watch isn't on.

Awesome. Very. I feel exactly the same when I lose my watch, which thankfully doesnt happen very often. Perish the thought!
Very good though. I think I might have said that. Dont think you'll mind though LOL.
Bye now
Keep writing
