"honestly i can't remember teen dreams"
- honestly? from 'american football'
i was looking through my senior year hs yearbook yesterday
as i often do when i'm at home
one particular thing that caught my eye
was sara healy's message
right on the third page
what i gleaned from her
lovely arched script
(which i find most girls of that age seem to produce effortlessly
and i find innocently charming)
were several things:
1. she wanted to drink with me
before graduation, during the summer,
and any time i ever visited her in SB
2. she was overly fond of me
even though we did not meet until senior year
3. in my rather puny attempts to
define myself with girls at that age,
i never realized i should've talked to her.
now she's off in who-knows-where
and it is a bit disparaging
that i will most likely never have
even a smirnoff ice with her
but that's the life you choose
when you come back home
and you're the last bastion of your cohorts
