Count me in as not popular at all. I didn't know most

people had friends till middle school, and didn't have

my own friends till high school, except the girls in

jr high (2 of them, one in 7th grade one in 8th) whose

parents MADE them do stuff with me...one girl's mom

was friends with my mom, the other girl was on my

basketball team and was pretty abrasive herself.

Then, ah, high school. Land of way more unusual souls

than a 26 individual class...
