You were never an oddball girl in high school. You make it sound like there's a terrible memory or two involving the cruelty of teenagers that still haunts you...that makes me angry. For what it's worth, I know what it's like to have been the butt of a lot of jokes, having grown up as an oddball boy myself (maybe I didn't suffer as much emotionally - though I got about as much of that as I could handle - or more - as a wimpy, oversensitive boy, but I probably got physically beat up more than most girls would - at least I hope so. Ah, happy childhood days...)
