A story about a time when I felt different from everyone else

Nablopomo Request # 3 : A story about a time when you felt different from everyone else - From Melly. 

This kind of feels like cheating, but really it would be impossible to write this story before the end of Nablopomo! The story starts on August 13, 1979, and hopefully there are still many more chapter to be written.

I don't think that I have ever, for one minute or even one second, NOT felt different from everyone else. I was always fatter, poorer, slower (physically), more timid, more anxious, more awkward and weirder than everyone else. I've never quite fit in anywhere. Sometimes I find a nice medium sized octagonal hole into which I can squeeze my large round self. But I never feel like I feel truly TRULY fit in. Anywhere. Not at work, not in my family, not in any church, not in any clubs or associations... I just never truly feel like I fit in! 

Except.. here. On this blog. This is 100% me. I feel like I can only ever be the real me when I write without censuring myself.
