Sunshine Superman

It's Tuesday, June 11, 1991.
It's another long day at Sakuyama Chu Gakko (Sakuyama Junior High School) and I am slowly getting used to not having female companionship at my beck and call. Has it really been eight days since Ashley and I broke up? It must not be bothering me as much as I feared anymore - I'm sleeping. I'm not going over things in my head all the time. In fact... being so busy at school is helping.
So to is the fact that there has been an edict sent around the school not allowing the kids to bring in their pet beetles to scare the crap out of the foreigner (gaijin) - me.
I actually go over to the school principal and shake his hand while bowing deeply.
It's a hot and humid day, though cloudy. 
Too hot today, I agree to join the school baseball club tomorrow - and show off my fading baseball skills. I can hit a ton, but as a third baseman, I could never make the throw to first base an accurate one. Hopefully, the kids just want me to hit the ball to them.
After school Matthew - the other local foreigner - comes over. We have some chicken AND TV dinners and watch a few videos each has had sent over from back home.
I get a package in the mail from Kristine - the major crush in my life, who lives some 500 kilometres away from me. Unfortunately, it's not a pair of her panties, but, it's the next best thing. It's a bunch of comic books. I'm a nerd, alright. But a horny one.
I love that girl for thinking of me - and actually sending me something I would really appreciate.
I have (as of 2011) over 30,000 comic books - and had about 20,000 back in 1991 in Toronto. I had zero, here in Japan. Now I have 20.
It didn't matter that I had read many of them before - at least she tried. She tried and it means so much to me.
I love her and want to have her children. 
Can I have her children?
No.
I want her to have my children. 
I go to bed at a respectable time - midnight and think happy thoughts about my friends making my life so enjoyable. Many of those thoughts involve Kristine.

Somewhere wishing I could fly 500 kilometres,
Andrew Joseph

PS: DC Comics publishes Superman... However, DC actually stands for Detective Comics which is famous for the first appearance of Batman - not Superman, as he appeared first in Action Comics #1.
PPS: I'm such a nerd. But I can hit a baseball!
