I said, "Gee mom, give me a break. You've got it easy." "Easy?" she says, cocking one well plucked eyebrow. "Well, yeah. All you have to do is look pretty." Then she popped THE QUESTION. "So, you'd like it easy too, I suppose?" I'm Io. And that is exactly how it all started. This is my "Boy Comes of Age" story. Looking back, my being a tad too anxious about starting high school was my fatal flaw. My story is funny and some sad. Weird surprising and a smidge predictable. But its a fun and furious ride. So, sit yourself down, put your feet up, and read on. I promise you won't regret it.
