Day 2- Jon Lind

Jon was the first guy it didn't work out with.

Starting in first grade, I would like him and he'd hate me and the following year, we'd switch. One year, I would chase, tackle and kiss him and the next year, he'd enlist his friends to corner me to kiss me. I think it was third grade when the chase-and-kiss game was becomming passé and we begun to try to impress or tease each other instead. He could write his name smaller than anyone else in the world. He loved Calvin and Hobbs, so I loved Calvin and Hobbs. I have vague memories of sitting at the same table as him in the library alot.

We weren't in the same class in fifth grade and we went to different middle schools, though I doubt we were meant to be. It was all very experimental. I still like Calvin and Hobbs, and that's mostly due to Jon.
