the horror

Or, ways I'm like I was in high school

• general feelings of inadequacy
• unnatural enjoyment of new school supplies
• bad eyesight
• get hives at the mention of economics
• attracted to the geeky skinny guys (see "potential second husbands")
• tendency to dislike bouncy perky cheerleader-types
• hate high heels
• want the popular people to like me (or at least notice me)
• agonizing over hair & makeup
• relish the angst of The Smiths, The Cure, Squeeze, The Smithereens, omd, Depeche Mode, and Echo & The Bunnymen
• still have no respect for my American History teacher
• height
• 'pleasure to have in class' but 'visits too much with neighbors'
• love the smell of mimeograph in the morning...
