i call her anne...

i hate the scarlet letter and other fancy readin's, and when i was asked to perform in a bookclub burlesque based on the scarlet letter, this is what i did. does anyone actually get hanged in the scarlet letter? i never read it. i know the jist of it. demi moore has an affair and they shame her by tacking a big angry A on her chester. she has a daughter named after Janis Joplin's classic album Pearl. Blahblahblahblah LIT'rature.

i've always been very good at pretending to know things. i can remember playing hand-raising-roullette in high school with myself. the game was easy. i'd raise my hand when the teacher asked us to comment on something we read regardless of whether i read it or not. the equivalent to a bullet in the brain was getting called on first, before anyone else was called on who's answer i could pirate.

i miss high school sometimes, except for the whole waking up at 6:45am and not being an independent adult part.
