Ginny
Ginny is Dave’s twin sister. While Dave was tall, lanky, red-haired, freckled, and what we affectionately considered a geek, Ginny was athletic, blond, and beautiful. Dave was the closest I had to a best friend in college, and I suppose it’s natural that I would fall for his sister.
We had a brief romance. She visited me once in New Hampshire and I took her to the local amusement park. We had our picture taken together in a photo booth (sadly, I don’t have any copies). When she got home, she showed the picture to a friend and her friend said, “Oh, that’s nice. He has a really big mouth too!”
Our romance did not last long, through no fault of either of us, I think. She was just much more mature than I was and quickly moved on to more manly men. I felt like this was a smart choice on her part.
June 1984
Though I love this picture of Ginny, Dave told me later that anyone who knew her well could see that she was really annoyed with me.
