There Goes the Neighborhood

Two reasons for living on my street, the condom shop and the cheese shop, have closed. This is a disaster. The condom shop, just in theory -- I didn't go in there every morning -- but what, please, is the point of living in Europe if you can't have a cheese shop a few doors away?


Of course it's a sign of gentrification, rising rents, Berlin bohos becoming parents, etc. There was already a baby-clothes shop next to the condom place. (In case of product failure.) But guess what finally pushed the condoms out? Dingdingdingdingding Richtig! A "baby-mama spa."

Anyone who knows what that is, please enlighten me in the comments section.

remember that one time, when you were driving around philadelphia, with your date's hand wedged between the carseat and your thigh after that amazing conversation at that great sushi place in center city, and his phone rang and it was his baby's mama (!?!?!?!?). well, that's where she gets her nails done.
