'It's the last day of school, so I took a hit of acid. It's not like I'm seeing things that aren't there. I'm seeing more than I usually see of what is there. . .'

Christy's just out of school in the American South. The big, bad world beckons, but she's turning her back on all that grown-up stuff. She's going to enjoy herself - a bit of sex, a skinful of dope - whatever it takes to keep it all together. But sometimes, no matter what it is you do or don't do, it's all going to fly apart anyway . . .
