PAST NOTES

analog instant messages


you have found my collection of passed notes from the 90s, welcome.

spanning from the beginning of 1995 to junior year of high school in 1998, a note, reproduced verbatim from the original with the exception of all names, is posted to this blog in the order I'd received it. each post contains one note, and a brief narration of the back story as best I can remember it.

there will also be, from time to time, relevant photos, songs, videos, links, objects, quotes, diaries, poems, and other ephemera (all admittedly completely self-indulgent and wince-inducing).

1995 — THIRTY SIX

Hey Eve,
Its Oct 30th, Halloween Eve! Devil’s night shall be here soon!!
Anyways – its 8:01 in the morning and I’m still not in school. Let’s see I haven’t been in school since Friday the 20th! This is great! Being expelled aint so bad. Especially when I hardly got in trouble. I cant believe it. My dad was pissed, but he only yelled for a few minutes! I’m not even grounded! But I did get my phone taken away. But that’s okay. I’m used to it by now.
Well here’s the storeee - …
… I don’t belong to any school. I’m not at Crapel Field anymore. But my mom hasn’t enrolled me in any other school. She looked up info on this convent for me but the tuition was WAY too high for her. So she said she’s sending me to Pine Box Central high school!
YES! YES! YES! Holy shit, I’m so happy! Damn it! Those schmucks on the Rock Revolution played “Aeroplane” instead of “My Friends”! Figures… they finally say “Some Chilli Peppers for Eve from Jackie” and they play the wrong fuckin song.
Today my moms takin me to get my haircut. I cant wait! It’s all comin off baby. Balds the word! No just jokin, I’m getting it shorter than I’ve ever had it though. Not as short as Cadence.’s but kinda close.
Oh yeah, the reason my dad didn’t get too mad is cause the reason I got expelled was stupid, and he went to the school to argue with that asshole coach guy!! Weird, huh?
So here I am… 1 week and a day since I last went to school. I could live like this… Well I’ll be in school soon enough. All good things must come to an end. Anyways…
How’ve you been? I haven’t talked to you in so long. It really sucks. I miss you. How is Jim doing? Cailean? Any problems with her flirtatios cranium?
Well I have to go wash the breakfast dishes I used. I’ll write back ASAP.

Jackie 
P.S. We gotta get together 4 halloween! I’m gonna have my bro call ya so we can make arrangements.
