Previously on The Melissa Diaries: I had just found out that I was named editor-in-chief of my college newspaper for the following year. It should have been something to toast to; instead, I was already too obsessed with another editor. It looked like it was going to be another long summer.

My Father’s Suicide: Floating above grief
Faux Trixie says
wait, did this paul kid have a brother named Mark? The last names are the same, so I have to think they are related. If so, I was in LOVE with Mark M. for all of seventh, eighth, and the beginning of ninth grade. He was that cool skater kid, but was sadly, a year older than me.
That's when I started hanging out with the skater kids in MY grade to be a cool skater girl. Yes, yes I did. This led to me carrying a skateboard, wearing baggy jeans and tshirts, and generally trying to impress the skaters with my bad-ass awesomeness.
Moral of the story? I wouldn't worry about checking online message boards.

You are awesome already! They could be related, though I think Paul grew up in the suburbs. 🙂

Oh, Mel…Paul…it's all so sordid when I know who this is about.
Melissa Blake says
Oh, come on! It's funny!
