I know it was 1979 because it was also the year that I discovered that years are numbered. I thought that was so incredibly clever. Now I knew when I was. I was in 1979. Slip, Slide and Away was a big hit that year. I remember singing it in the car while it played on the radio. I think that we were driving a Ford LTD that year, which was also my favorite of my parents' cars. LTD... it sounded so high-class. And it had electric windows! And a two-tone paint job! I pondered the meaning of this song quite a bit. "You know you're nearer your destination the more you slip, slide, and away." I figured it had to have something to do with playground slides and I imagined myself going down an infinitely long slide toward my destination when I sang it.

I had volunteered at the animal shelter and the art museum previous summers, but this year I was old enough to join a detassling crew. I was very excited about this job. I planned to buy myself contact lenses and a bicycle. I was a late bloomer. At age 15 I was still a child. My favorite passtimes were fishing and rabbit hunting and reading. Ambushing younger cousins in the woods, digging deep holes for tiger traps, building forts... The first day I went to the municipal swimming pool parking lot to catch the detassling bus, I was a little nervous. I didn't know anyone there. There were about 20 girls aged 15-17, mostly on the younger side. Everyone seemed to know someone else except for me. When we got to our first field of the day, after having slept a little bit on the bus in transit, we all woke up, ate something from our lunch stashes, and milled around while our crew leader got organized. When we got started working a group of four friends started singing "I want your Sex," and most everyone joined in. I had never heard the song. It was very bizarre. For a fleeting moment at the beginning, I thought it might be a song the girls had made up themselves. Then everyone started singing it and I knew I had stumbled across something known to the entire world, except for me. It kind of reminded me of the "Two all-beef patties special sauce double cheese pickles onions on a sesame-seed bun" craze of my grade-school years. I was shocked by the totally dirty lyrics, and excited. On the all-girls' detassling crew we tromped through fields sweating in the sun in our cut-offs and bikini tops, singing dirty songs. Nowhere else in the world could I experience anything like it. And be part of it! I became friends with two older heavy metal girls who took me under their wing. They brought in their lunch pails oranges into which they had injected peach schnappes with a hypodermic needle. They were the most fascinating women I had ever met in my life.

I desperately wanted to play the lead role. Unfortunately, singing more loudly than anyone else in my class was not going to get me the part. I practiced the song "Tomorrow" for the audition, recording myself singing on my tape recorder. In the end, a girl named Sarah got the part. I don't think there was really any contest. After the try outs, I was miserably sad. I went home and listened to the recording of my rendition of the song a few times and felt pretty strongly that my singing had been just as good as Sarah's. And louder! Did I mention that Sarah had red hair?
