I was reading David Sedaris's book "Naked" this morning and came across the word "kids". I had to think about that word for about ten seconds before realizing what it meant. "Kids" is a weird word.
Yes, I'm sure I have mentioned it before. It's a young, gawky, loser boy that all the girl's point and laugh at. Quite a useful term, I must say.
You're right- we do have quite a bit in common, dear. The power of the messageboards to unite such kindred spirits- I am amazed, and know not what to say.
