Geekishness-- OT (was Mortal Peril and a few other things)

Aloha--

Dee, I completely relate.  All through middle school, I was the 
chubby braniac who always had a smartass remark to make.  Of course, 
the giggling members of the social hierachy didn't take well to that, 
so I was ostracized something terrible!  I had no allies in my grade, 
all of my friends being a year older and therefore separated from 
me.  

However, it all changed once I hit 8th grade and the high school.  
Well, the "the skanky popular people avoid me like white pants after 
Labor Day and shirts with more than a square inch of material in 
them" scenario hasn't changed much *lol*, but I managed to "play the 
game" and get myself into the Varsity Club for field hockey.  Of 
course, all social strides I've made are canceled out by my supreme 
band geekishness.  :)  

Being the only sophomore girl in a close-knit group of junior boys 
also raises eyebrows...

And yes, I read Foxtrot... "A!  B!  A!  A!  B!"  *lol*  The sad thing 
is, I'm the only girl on the squad, earning me the nickname "AV 
Chick".

Some strains of geekishness never change.  :)
