One day I found myself in need of a rear wiper blade for my old girl Mary Margaret who just so happens to be my late 1999 Honda CR-V, after setting out on a journey to find an affordable rear wiper blade, I found myself at the Elburn NAPA. Due to my lack of rear wiper blade on this rainy day I was in a bit of a not so pleasant mood. I walked into the double doors and immediately found myself unable to see over the shelves due to my five foot one stature (knocking off one star because short people lives matter) I trudged my way through the aisles and made my way to the counter. I looked up and saw this gorgeous young man, with long, beautiful flowing locks of brown hair and a beautiful pair of ice blue eyes. I was so taken aback by this absolute dream of a man.
