Yay, Gus!

The In Crowd
Last time I checked, high school was twenty years behind me. My first PTA meeting proved me wrong.
It was us and them, just like always. A glittering cadre of Jimmy Choos, spray-on tans, and the keys to Escalades hanging from Louis Vuitton key rings on one side of the room. An array of sweatshirt and jeans on the other, complete with grape jelly stains and bags grubby little fingers had groped through searching for lunch money and gum.
Now the cool girls’ badge is running the bake sale and taking playground duty. In crowd by tax bracket never changes.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Heh. Amy, they sound more like Ferragamo or Manolo types than Jimmy Choos.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Since I am now a paid-up member of the writing community, may I now comment on how writers are just like everyone else?
We all lust after StephL, we are all mostly broke, and we all want a good sentence.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Yay, Gus!!! That is so very cool!

Could be. I don't actually know one from the other very well. But they were also a weird mix of hometown South Philly with very new money and Manhattan taste.

Quite true. Especially the...no, wait, all of it's especially true.

I think Jimmy's are a little exotic for most of them, is all. In the same way I wouldn't expect them to be wearing Robert Clergerie shoes, either.
BTW, ma'am, you have a chapter segment. Feedback is wanted, if and when anyone can deal with it.
Gus, of course you may comment. Writer! Isn't everyone in here a writer?

Good one, AmyLiz.

I've never heard of Robert Clergerie! This is what happens when Sex and the City ends. All my fashion comes from Target lately.

If I gt my page quota done tomorrow, I promise will read and comment. I'm behind, though, and it's killing me. I would so much rather be reading Kinkaid goodness than writing the Crappy Book That's Going to Kill Me.

Like that ever stopped me.
