I was participating in a contest of who can stay on the monkey bars the longest. One could hang straight-up monkey style, flip upside down and wrap one’s knees into the bars, or lie along on top. It went on for hours. I finished my book. I came in third place in round one; when we went again, I finished second (those some said I really won).

I also had breast implants, and I was pretty sure one had ruptured.
