deviant art

it was the summer before senior year in highschool. i had just returned home from a marvelous, PG, dazzling three week adventure abroad in barcelona, espaƱaaaa. i was wicked tan, skiiiiiineeee, and kinda a babe. so what better time to strut my post european stuff? so we had three weeks left before the school year began. high school was boring, so any chance to do anything remotely unorthodox was jumped on immediately. senior editor in chief of the school newspaper, political cartoonist for the washington post,man,idol, wizard, none other then the prodigy himself, eric freeegen shansby was asked and agreed to draw us in la nude. heeheeeheeee. so we frolicked over to the local candy store, bought donuts, salt and vinegar chips and starbursts.then we locked ourselves in marisa shweberkorans guest room on sycamore avenue and got nakeee. i wore my posh, black, thick framed glasses and posed very titanicesque.eric is an arteest, so this wasn't a giggle fest, it was his task at hand, his virtue. amy posed and said after the drawing was completed she looked like a constipated monkey. iiiii on the other hand, looked quite sophisticated AND skinny AND TAN, but now i have a debilitating horrifying fear of melanoma and aging skin so i am now pale and crusty. sike, not crusty, yet. so we got drawn it was FUN FUN FUN, we thanked our artist and then he went off to Yale to become an enchanting sorcerer. SO anyways, wahoo lucky me, two weeks ago (age 23, one year out of college), I GOT TO HAVE A CHINESE DINNER WITH him aaaand fricken Norm the Toive. we ate reaally quickly, talked about girls, boys and mysticism and then walked over to the playhouse where nora barked at the theater attendant for being disrespectful for not letting us in because we were 5 minutes late. god, what a stiff!but we got in, watched young twentysomethings lament about breakups and hookups and warlords and then we said farewell. eric,want to paint me at age 23? we can cover the 20 extra pounds with floral decor.
