Welcome To Age Thirteen

angry pouty blonde wants straight hair
misunderstood redhead wants to be a blonde
annoyed brunette hates her mother and her curls
evasive curly-haired teen wants thinner hair
peckish thin-haired girl wants to be a redhead
Welcome to age thirteen

Yes, the last year before you're an adult is rough. Too many choices and not enough responsibility. Everyone wants to be like somebody else and then is mad if everyone doesn't want to be like them. ??? A poet friend in Texas, Bill P.S. Next year on my birthday it will be my 6th time at being thirteen. :-)

A lady at my work is 78, and going strong! She has not missed one day of work in 8 years!

It always seems to me that thirteen year olds are never happy with who they are and have no idea who or what they should be. They are merely flailing around until they can be thirty-five!
