She was a cute girl, dressed up in Belinda Carlisle wanna be Go Go gear, representing the best of the beach in the early 80's. Everything I wanted to see, everything my hormones wanted to cheer on, like a painted fat guy at a Buffalo Bills football game. Her blonde bob, bangles, and apple dappled cheeks bounced through the boardwalk, high on candy. It was a moment of Kronos in my 13th year of life, unforgotten, unforgettable, unrequited.
