Summary
Water polo sounds so unimaginably stupid that she literally cannot imagine it. But so does disco. And instant messaging. And raking piles of leaves just to jump in them after. And all-you-can-eat buffets. And prank calls. And frozen yogurt. And fucking surfing. And still, though she’d never admit it to Joel, she wants it to be real, all of it, desperately. Maybe because of how stupid it is. Maybe because of how seriously alive it must have felt, in a world where the moon ate up the sun and still no one thought it was too dark to throw a party.
