Week of 10/30/2005

Witty One Liner: I’m an angel! Honest! The horns are just there to keep the halo up straight!

Quote of the week: Love is when you don’t want to go to sleep because reality is better than a dream.

Offbeat oddity (courtesy of the planner): Sharks can live up to 100 years

I feel as though I was a weird combination of sass, spice, and attitude mixed with shmoopy, teeth-rottingly cute, die hard romantic. I had a lot of “fuck you and let me be me!” in high school, but at the same time I was devouring Harlequins and full length romance novels like tic tacs. And goodness, this was the year I turned sixteen so I would have had all that sweet sixteen never been kissed bullcrap wafting around in my brain (although my sister would bring up my kindergarten infractions to deny the sweet sixteen never been kissed label). Sixteen and wondering why none of the boys wanted to kiss me while tramping around in Hot Topic bondage pants, writing disturbing poetry in my notebook that never left my side, acting like a know-it-all in pretty much every class I took, and reigning supreme over my teeny tiny clique that was at the bottom of the social food chain. Yup. No idea why I didn’t date in high school. None at all.
