I’ve known quite a few Jennifer’s in my life. One was my roommate for a year, one is my second cousin, one slept with her fencing coach while we were still in high school.

There was one Jennifer though that I used to be really good friends with. She was a grade above me and lived a few blocks away in the rich development. She had a pretty crappy home life, but a pretty sweet home. I used to go to New Years Eve parties there and my friend Mike and I spent almost every day after school just hanging out in her humongous house with her male nanny Jeff playing Disney Princess Trivial Pursuit (and subsequently somehow losing to the guys) and just sitting in her parents giant hot tub, without water in it, just because we could. She moved away after high school and I didn’t hear from her again until last year. She’s single and with a kid living in PA now. Hopefully I’ll get to hang out with her again soon because she really was a great friend.

Oh and her fun fact is that she was also on the fencing team with the other Jen who slept with their coach.
