There was once a point in my life where I wished to dress up like all the artists I saw on Pop-Up Video, hence the Edie Brickell post before this. Little sixth-grade Elyse wanted nothing more than to be COOL and went to school dressed in big baggy black sweaters with acid wash jeans and weird y-shaped necklaces.
It’s too bad that I was in the sixth grade eight years too late for that to be relevant.
