June 18, 2002 moist and owlish It is evening before Senior Class Photo Day.  Two seventeen-year-old females rent Splendor in the Grass and An Affair To Remember.  They are best friends and huddle together behind locked doors to watch movies in common defense against the Demon who, imbued with evil, blemish-forming powers, stalks young ladies on Senior Class Photo Eve. It is photo day.  The Passover is complete; morning broke without breakout.  But the movies, intended as amulets, were sad and jerked tears.  The girls are afflicted with post-sob puffiness. Two figures reclining in a darkened room; bright cucumber eyes, moist and owlish.  All is quiet.  Young minds ponder the vicissitudes of vanity.
