You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

That's why I like to have people over, it forces me to clean at least to SOME extent (depending on who the guests are)

But then we figured that she must have been a few years younger, so maybe I was that girl for her!

Aww! We all wanted pictures of Mary, and to find out what she was doing now. We were very curious. And thought C should like, send her some of the diary or something. C said next time she would just show up with Mary and we would all be like 'Heeeeeeey!" and Mary would be like "WTF?" (Apparently, they saw each other at their 10 year high school reunion, but Mary was not All That, as remembered)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, my girl was older than me, so aspirational! Although I'm not sure why I had such a thing for her in particular -- I don't think she was any big superstar at school or anything.

Yeah...I remember thinking a few different people were super super cool. There was one girl who was *so* pretty, and had the *best* handwriting, and was part of the cool crowd, but still NICE...I stopped biting my fingernails because of her! (She ...dared me? bet me? in science class, that I couldn't stop. So I did!)

Oh, I had a friend like that. Kelley. Bless the girl, she was about the only person that made junior high remotely bearable.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think the only people I looked up to at my school were teachers.

A grand to put something that ugly on your arm? No thanks.

I just saw the Popemobile.

I stopped reading the Pope after the first few issues. The character is such a Mary Sue, what with being infallable and all.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I was confused. I read it as "inflatable".

Which, you know, could explain a lot.
