The Who's

"All the world's a stage, the men and women merely
players..."-Shakespeare

Who are the actors in the play of my life?

-Jerry: My current boyfriend, of nearly two months as I'm
writing this. He's sweet, affectionate, head over heels for
me. The only problem is, I'm not sure if I feel the same
way.

-Anthony: My best male friend. I swear if I was male I
would be Anthony. I've had a crush on him for nearly half a
decade. The thing is, he's gay. And he just found out, less
than a week from when I write this, that I like him. DAMN
IT!

-Jennifer: My best female friend. She's known how much I
like Anthony for the last six months. She's also best
friends with him, and it's kind of her fault that he knows.
Of course, she also helped hook me up with Jerry, so
whatever.

-Kevin: Jennifer's boyfriend, Jerry's best friend. Also
responsible for hooking me up with Jerry. He's a great guy,
really cool. But he's also a jerk when he feels like it,
which can be a little too often for my tastes.

-Rachael: The last friend in my little group. She's funny,
smart, a talented artist. She has problems with guys too,
so we get along well.

-Rick: Ricky's my last boyfriend. Dated him for 15 months,
was miserable for the last five. He lives in a different
town, a half hour away. The thing is, he started cheating
on me a week before we broke up, with the girl he was
trying to hook his best friend up with. So now I talk to
his "friends" more than he does, simply because I'm cool
and he's a jackoff.

-Joe: My first boyfriend. Currently a druggie and a high-
school dropout. Don't I have the best tastes?

And, of course, me. All names above are changed. If I need
to put my name in, I'll call myself Sarah.

The curtain opens on a field of land mines...
