My Girl

Vada: I used to like to play with my Ken and Barbie dolls. Ken was my favorite. Then one Christmas I got them a camper and all they wanted to do was hang out in it by themselves. So I wasn't too upset when they took that wrong turn and went over the cliff. Vada: I was born jaundiced. Once I sat on a toilet seat at a truck stop and caught hemorrhoids. And I've learned to live with this chicken bone that's been lodged in my throat for the past three years. So I knew Dad would be devastated when he learned of my latest affliction. [to father] Dad, I don't want to upset you, but my left breast is developing at a significantly faster rate that my right. It can only mean one thing. Cancer. I'm dying. Harry: Okay, Sweetie, hand me the mayonnaise out of the fridge. Vada: Pacifist! Thomas J: Am not! Vada: Bed wetter! Thomas J: I stopped that! Vada: Why do you think people want to get married? Thomas J: When you get old, you just have to. Vada: I'm gonna marry Mr. Bixler. Thomas J: You can't marry a teacher, it's against the law. Vada: It is not. Thomas J: Yes it is, 'cause then he'll give you all A's, and it won't be fair. Shelly: What's that scent you're wearing? Henry: Old Spice. Phil says it's a timeless classic. Vada: Weeping willow with your tears running down / why do you always weep and frown? / Is it because he left you one day? / Is it because he could not stay? / He found shelter in your shade / You thought his laughter would never fade. / On your branches, he would swing / Do you long for the happiness that day would bring? / Weeping willow, stop your tears / for there is something to calm your fears; / If you think death has ripped you forever apart / I know he'll always be in your heart. Justin: Feel my aura. Vada Sultenfuss: I don't think I'm allowed to. Thomas J. Sennett: Vada? Vada Sultenfuss: Yeah? Thomas J. Sennett: Would you think of me? Vada Sultenfuss: For what? Thomas J. Sennett: Well, if you don't get to marry Mr. Bixler. Vada Sultenfuss: I guess. Shelly DeVoto: This Phil, Harry, Gramoo, and Vada Sultenfuss. Danny: Vada Sultenfuss? Tough break. Vada Sultenfuss: I like my name. ~ Home ~ Movies ~ Songs ~ Anonymous ~ Women ~ ~ Friendship ~ Life and Success ~ Poems ~ Shakespeare ~ Star Trek ~
