We were much younger than the characters, but we wanted it to be true so I guess that didn't matter. :)<br /><br />Love the post.

I love the honesty of her character. Thanks for a great post (and the props!). It was lovely to see you in Brookline, though it was too brief. Perhaps we'll lure you to Mankato in 2012??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1127278217542074877.post-57143711654666513062010-11-23T21:05:14.455-05:002010-11-23T21:05:14.455-05:00The best bit is even after we broke up, we'd s...The best bit is even after we broke up, we'd still hang out at the bookstore together.

First Mitali, now you talking them up, I'll have to give them a go :)<br /><br />Driving on the highway is scary! I barely do it, I envy all my friends who can. But I agree sometimes a crush can be really good for a girl.<br /><br />If I find a guy who has cool with hanging at Borders, I will be quite happy! hahaMissAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11042352415616854651noreply@blogger.com
