Susie took over as teacher’s pet – that was MY spot at school - and became class queen. She knew the esoteric translations which had been my forte. Her poetry - as good as mine. Pretty, fashionable, thin, with the sass of a natural redhead - my dyed dirty blond showing dark roots and being overweight – not in her league. She had a large family, boys AND girls. Me – only boys. She not only taught brainy seniors, but also had a challenging newspaper job as overnight translator. While I was slugging away teaching c-stream, with the odd job translating.
