The lessons of visiting a certain class of girl in NYC.

I didn't own a copy of hte oscial register, because what would a girl like me need it for? Still, I knew its details on my classroom peers.

There were a few Jewish girls one of whom had this incredibly garish (carried in on a carosel pony when the party was half over) Bat Mitzvah that the DAR-type girls were very put off by, and it was all just AWKWARD as far as I was concered, in part because I was only at any of these things because school policy required it.
