Now that I've read Stardust, and fallen completely in love with it, I am truly scared of the movie. Even if they do a good job, it won't look like it does in my head.

And the end is so happy and so sad at the same time. Waaaaah! *snif*

So, Gaiman: I've read Good Omens, American Gods, Neverwhere, and Stardust. *le sigh* I love it all. Want more. *lol*

Dinner: Pasta, frozen broccoli, "cream" sauce (made exactly like normal cream sauce--margarine instead of butter, soymilk instead of milk) with Italian Seasoning and a bit of nutritional yeast. Way fast and cheap and yum.

I moved there in July of 1989, I think...I went into fifth grade that fall. You?

I think I was just leaving at that time. I had already moved over to the AT Mahan High School at that point (7th grade).

I was the first student council president the elementary school ever had. It was a disaster of a student council, actually.

My teacher's name was Mr. Kirstein.

Oh hell, I can't remember any of my teachers' names. *lol*

I recently looked up AT Mahan on Google Images...I found pictures from some reading event a few years ago. They remodeled the elementary school while I was in sixth grade, and everything looked exactly the same, down to where the piano was!

I lived in the townhouse-kinda things....my house was literally behind Top of the Rock (which was across the street from the comissary), walking distance from the high school. All those houses are gone now. If you have Google Earth you can look at it from above--it's weird to see a huge empty space where there was a loop of road and old townhouses all around it. Ah, 1049-D. ;^) I can remember my phone number too, 7843. I have such a bad head for names, though.

Did you do stuff at the Youth Center? The summer before sixth grade I went there every day, they had something akin to day care for kids too old for normal day care. I used to do overnight parties there too... hahaha I can remember dancing to Janet Jackson and New Kids on the Block and MC Hammer...with the disco lights and all that. I think it's where I really developed my current love of dancing...I also took ballet lessons there, I was in the Nutcracker three times!
