Having a phobia has changed me.
I wore dresses all the time. I like to wear dresses.
Nobody actually talks to anybody anymore. People in cubicles next to each other, they e-mail each other.
No libraries, no progress.
In high school, I weighed 175 to 180. I looked like Abraham Lincoln. I was 6-foot-3, biggest thing in the class, but tall, not fat.
Everyone complains about the weather, but nobody ever seems to do anything about it.
