Believe me, they hit on girls who look 12, too. In fact one of my college friends looked super young - like a 12 year old - very very petite and just childlike. Full grown adult male strangers would hit on her CONSTANTLY.

Oh, bless. Your father sounds like a real handful.
This was a wonderful piece, Anna. Vivid and delightful and filled with humane insights. I could imagine a quasi-fictional novel growing out of this - the real life characters are colorful enough that they need no embellishment.
Really wonderful piece Gail, I read the whole thing - couldn’t tear myself away. Thank you so much for sharing your work with us readers.

THANK YOU I LOVE IT!

Oh Joanna, you are too good for us. This is for you....

WHERE DID YOU FIND SUCH BEAUTY
Perfect post is perfect!
For the love of god, please stop calling them “The NAF.” Sounds like a British pop group.
