I was talking to orcjohn the other day, and I promised him some pictures of me when I was young enough to be blonde. I thought this one was going to be one of those, but I'm misremembering and have some sort of a chestnut-colored wash in here. But I thought it would be fun to post anyway, because the other person in this picture is wildnsquirrelly. I think we're about 16 in this shot.

I told you, knock that shite off.

May I remind you, honey, that there were 3 general groups of people at that school: 1)the preppies/athletes/rich snots, 2)rednecks, and 3)normals. We were in the 3rd group. Group 1 thought they were all that, but it was self-delusion, and they had to pick at others to make themselves feel better. Group 2, well, they weren't the pick of the litter, even for rednecks, and I should know, I've got a whole family of them.

(I always comfort myself with the fact that, my nemesis in grade school, Cheyanne (who would have been in group 1 above if she had gone to our HS), skipped out on her first semester of college, ran off to south florida, spawned about 6 or 7 kids, all by different daddies, got disowned by her then horrified parents, and is now living on welfare.)

You were quite pretty in high school, and you are absolutely gorgeous now. I still remember the first day I met you, and for the rest of that week feeling on top of the world, because such a pretty, smart and cool girl like you took the time to socialize with a shy bookworm like me!

You. Are. Gorgeous. And I'm going to keep telling you that until you truly believe it. Know it, believe it, live it.
