i don't think i'm that smart, in fact, i don't even know how people measure intelligence. i do know that i remember a lot of things and people better than most.

i can recall all kinds of strange memories, of getting punished, of first crushes, of embarassment, of trophies and failed tests, of the spark that set me off.

i remember friends that probably won't ever remember me.

i often wonder what a lot of people i used to know are up to, if they stayed in my hometown, if they are on the up and up or stuck on the down low...

i miss you guys. i miss ian irving and primus j. majda the third. i wonder whatever became of shasta lopes, if she still looks as good as my mind recalls... i wonder what elaine gonzales is up to, and if she remembers when she bought me a candy bar for my birthday. i wonder if she ever thinks about me, what i'm up to, how i'm doing?

probably not.
