My Girl. A Monologue

Sometimes I just love a movie, or a play, or a book. I re-read or re-watch it over and over and then parts just stick. This has happened a lot growing up. Maybe its a bit quirky... but I can still recite totally random things today. Take this movie monologue from the opening scene in a childhood favorite movie called, "My Girl" . I think its kinda funny. This is Veda..... The my girl of the movie...

"I was born jaundice. Once I sat on a toilet seat at a truck stop and got hemorrhoids. And I've learned to live with this chicken bone that's been lodged in my throat for the past 3 years. So I knew dad would be devastated when he learned of my latest affliction. "Dad, I don't mean to upset you, but my left breast is developing at a significantly faster rate than my right. It can only mean one thing... Cancer... I'm dying."

I just thought this was so cool.....And I don't really know why... lol....She's so dramatic... Such a creative little hypochondriac, because her dad ran a funeral home. and her mom died... Could you blame her?
