That girl ended up being one of my best friends in high school before we had a big fight and stopped being friends. I didn't remember this story; she told me about it when we were in tenth grade!
I got it for Annie and Shirley Temple about evenly! I had a music teacher who used to sing "The sun'll come out, Tamara" at me (Tamara being my given name).
It did! Although I didn't remember it until tenth grade when the other little girl (the one who thought I was Shirley Temple) told me about it! Also, when I posted this on my FaceBook, my cousin told me that when I was little, people would stop me to ask for my autograph. WHAT.
Thanks. I had started taking a comics class a few weeks before LJI started and this seemed like the perfect way to get prompts for new material.
Man, I never got to sit at the octopi table. They just numbered our tables... I feel the need to go back to my grade school and blame all my adult problems on the lack of octopi.
I think that is a good plan! All our tables in first grade were named after animals. I know there was a Bear Table. I don't remember any of the others but I am pretty sure that what table I sat at in first grade played an important part in my life development.
I was told I looked like Andrew McCarthy when I was a teenager. Now my students tell me I look like "that guy with the bowling shirts in 'Two and a Half Men.'" I don't even know what that means.
I do know that looking like Shirley Temple is infinitely preferable to either of those things, though. ;)
