They’re fine. They went camping in July. Eighteen-year-old boys are stupid and fast and both of those things cut in both directions.
The video went around. Somebody’s mother filmed the whole thing on a phone from the back and it got shared enough that people I went to high school with sent it to me.
I have not watched it and I’m not going to. I don’t need to see myself do that.
Bonnie Krebs came over on the Monday and sat on my porch and cried and said “I didn’t know” about six times, and I said, “How would you,” and I meant it, and we’re all right.
Vaughn saw the video on the Tuesday.
He called me at half past ten at night, and for the first four minutes he could not speak.
Then he said, “I didn’t know about the diploma.”
I said, “Neither did I.”
Then he said, “I said he was making a spectacle out of her.”
