Well, I’m a little late getting to this, but I wanted to let you know that this is one of my all-time favorite Substack pieces. I love everything about it! 😄 Also, how in the world did you find this gem of a story?!
I have to thank my mother for keeping everything from when we were in school. Now she's in the habit of giving us giant boxes full of stuff like this. For us to "go through". It was honestly hard for me to choose one story from the bunch to share, but this one just had a nice vibe and rhythm to it. And I honestly feel like I could have written it yesterday and it would have sounded exactly the same. 😂 Except with fewer 90s references.
I’m guessing 1976
I guess 1979 and hope I get that story ;-)
1983
4th grade Meg showing how spoiled Snow White was with “She even had people polish the soles of her shoes every five steps she took” is 🔥 🔥 🔥. 1980.
I enjoyed the story so much I forgot to look for clues! Such a vibrant imagination! But I will guess the same year I was born. 1976.
My guess is this was written in 1989 making you born in 1980.
I'm going with 1977
You know what this totally reminds me of. Jane Austen's juvenilia. Really funny satire by a kid.
What a wonderful compliment for my younger self. 🥰 Thank you, Mary. My brand of humor was vastly underappreciated at the time.
1981.
I feel like I have an advantage here...1980
You do! And I already disqualified you because you went to high school with me 😂 Sorry. ❤️
