The Little Grey Telephone

September 18, 2006... I remember, in the weeks after we broke up, riding from yard sale to yard sale, looking for things for my new apartment. And one sunny Saturday, finding a perfectly functional Bell telephone, just like the one I took with me when I left.

I thought of her and her new, dollar-store phone and how boxy she always sounded on it. So I picked up the Bell, cleaned it and gave it to her.
