Quote #4
Well, last night it happened. I am no longer a virgin! […] I wonder if sex without acid could be so exciting, so wonderful, so indescribable. I always thought it just took a minute, or that it would be like dogs mating, but it wasn't like that at all. (54.1)
Oof: "Like dogs mating." That's all.
Quote #5
All my life I've thought that the first time I had sex with someone it would be something special, and maybe even painful, but it turned out to be just part of the brilliant, freaky, way-out, forever pattern. (54.3)
Whatever happened to saving herself for Roger no matter what, forever and ever and ever? Alice's foray into LSD makes her give up on that dream pretty dang quickly, and we can't help but think she's maybe a little disappointed in herself.
Quote #6
Then [Roger] kissed me and it was what I had always dreamed it would be since I was in kindergarten. Other boys have kissed me but it wasn't the same at all. This was fondness and liking and desire and regard and admiration and affection and tenderness and attachment and yearning. It was the most wonderful thing that has ever happened in my life. (57.3)
It's amazing that Roger was able to pack all that stuff into one kiss. Hoo-ah.
