Which brings me:

to a funny story about how I once had a crush on my eight grade math teacher. Actually, it's not so much funny as it is long.

Who was our 8th grade math teacher?? I seem to have blocked it out. Now, Mr. Finneran, the 7th grade science teacher on the other hand, hell yes.

Hillary: I had a crush on Connie Mathison in eight grade algebra, further earning the Indian name of She Who Equally Likes Girls And Boys But Could Not Get A Date With A Girl If Her Life Depended On It. I mean, I can scarcely keep girls as _friends_. How pathetic.

YES! Finneran was TOTALLY adorable, but I never got what was up with all the crushes on Shrewsberry. In high school I had crushes on Corcoran, Hilfiker and Bhatoura (Gadzala's TA).

Did you ever have crushes on teachers?

Yes. Many times because there was candy involved. Teachers should probably not have as much candy as they do.

You and I both need a girl, you even more than me--despite my much emptier bed (its a queen, yours is a cot). No offense anyone, but hily needs to know.
Anyone who would be bothered by this statment should also know that i'm right.
Hmm, may end up deleting this, but for now.

My bed is not a COT, it's a MATTRESS--and I don't think I can have a cat, houseplant or girlfriend till after graduate school.

That's the difference between boys and girls: a girl has a right to expect that my bed will have an infrastructure and sheets.

Depends on the type of girl you are looking for...oh god am I drinking a very nice wine right now, my new favorite.
Perhaps the right girl for you will have her own bed. After graduate school is maybe a sort of long time away, perhaps after the semester instead?
As a Yugo buddy of mine used to say, get all the Pishka you can get, every minute without pishka is another minute without pishka.

Maybe, by the way, your explanation of the difference between boys and girls is why you neeed to be with a girl. Because that attitude, that the man should just be happy to be in a bed like thing, kind of seems unfair.
And why I feel the way I do about you.

hey, i'd like you to do that thing you did on yours on mine, i know i said i'd figure it out myself, but fuck it.
usname is my old yahoo account, remember? and password is your ex-kitty's novel's literary/artistic genre.

MATHISON. I couldn't remember her name. That bitch gave me my first "C".

Yes, I also wanted to be Corcoran's scandalously younger love slave. Except at the time I'm not sure I even knew what that entailed.

Hilary said...

AND she scarred many a young preteen by being snotty and marrying a big dumb guy. I ran into her a few years later and she looked like a soccer mom. Serves her right for giving you a C.

Hilary said...

Your comment inspired me to reflect on the actual life experience of having been a scandalously young love slave. Know what? It wasn't nearly as glamorous as I had thought it would be. In fact, it was kind of obnoxious. Hilary

Neal, thank you for your passwords--I'll insert that patch of JavaScript for you this afternoon. Hilly

neal said...

no, thank you for helping me to be lazy about it.
no rush.
TM me if you need to.

that "feel the way I do about you," was about girls, by the way. That you should be with them or one or you know what i mean.
