I just thought I'd say that it looks really, really weird to see a list made out like that. I think everyone might sort of keep a mental tally in their head, but the sheer listness, the drabness, the sort of prison-like enumeration (you can forgive me for that one) of it was just sort of striking. Kind of like, they're just all things in the past. Like, "Kinds of apples I've favored in past Fall seasons." Especially strange and striking is that, well, first of all that there are even patterns to be recognized, second that so many people recur, and third that every summer there's someone new, which isn't a judgment of you so much as it is an illustration of that maddening, beautiful effects of Summer Break. Thanks for sharing.

i think more than anything, for me, is that it's an interesting memory excercise. it puts my life in a new kind of order, not by grade (although there's that too), but by emotions. it's really, really fascinating to think of all these people, some of whom i haven't even seen since fifth grade. i posted it for some egomaniacal reason, but i do like my list. now, tell me about these patterns.
