smelling restaurant a block down from me, just past the backyard with the mean dog. She had a dirty blond bob and blue eyeglasses, and we played in her backyard behind the restaurant. We used the tubes that cigars came in, that were discarded nearby, as pretend test tubes. The test tubes were filled with a "formula" that could turn someone into a monster. We took turns being monster, heroine, and hero. She had a much older brother with Downs and an older sister we rarely saw. Once she and her brother put curlers in my hair--but it stayed very straight.

She moved away after first grade, and I was sad, because we had a lot of fun.
