One time I was invited to a party at Arlene’s house. Everybody was there because Arlene was the most popular girl around: she was number one, the nicest girl, and everybody liked her. Well, I’m sitting in a big armchair with nothing to do, when Arlene comes over and sits on the arm of the chair to talk to me. That was the beginning of the feeling. Oh boy! The world is just wonderful now! Someone I like has paid attention to me!
