“That’s why I’m here, stuck behind a cash register at a Maurices clothing store in Fort Wayne, not even at the good mall.While I’ve been busy selling scrunchies and stirrup pants this week, all my friends have been moving back to campus after summer vacation. Everyone’s arriving in their family station wagons packed with milk crates full of cassette tapes and St. Pauli Girl posters lovingly rubber-banded around cardboard tubes since May. The sidewalks in front of Greek houses and apartments and ...dorms are full of trunks, laundry baskets, and hot pots ready to fulfill a late-night ramen craving. Everyone’s tan and refreshed from a summer away and their bags carry pristine notebooks and new pens and snowy white K-Swiss sneakers, tags still attached.Tonight, all my friends are headed to a kegger at the Delta Sig house except for Joanna, who’s going to a Slip ’n Slide party on the hill at the Beta house. I’m scheduled to close the store, so my plans include balancing the register, vacuuming, and if I’m lucky, not removing used tampons from the fitting rooms.106Andy and Roni have apartments on opposite sides of an alley on the west side of campus this year.MoreLess
