Damn you woman! You make me cry! And I'm an ugly crier! This was a poignant and touching write.
I have one team member keeping me cackling, one is causing the usage of delicious words and sumptuous phrases, and the last team member is setting everything swirling in this bi-polar head to music! Thank you for writing this. Peace~~~D!
Aw. This was so sweet. The first section brought me back to my own childhood - so much nostalgia. Your description of your protagonist sitting on the monkey bars was what really drew me in. Who wouldn't relate to this image? And the cars. Heartbreakingly adorable.
It at first reminded me of my friend Staci; I was at a new grade school with much better playground equipment than my old school (where we were in fact trained in how to react if we found a used needle on the playground, which happened now and then). Staci came up to me and asked to be my friend, then showed me how to jump on the big tires, which for a shy, awkward, 10 (11? I think 10) year old was the biggest thing ever. People like that are amazing.
