Today all the seniors went to Freedom Park. It wasn't the most thrilling thing in the world, but I had fun. Rory and Kyle started a fire in the grill after Taylor and I complained about being cold. For the rest of the morning I smelled like campfire and I liked it. It started to get warmer around lunch time, and afterwards I laid in the sun and ( Read more... )

So, I definitely just spent an hour and a half at Blockbuster while Charlie was working. One of his coworkers, Linda (who, by the way, was old enough to be either of our mothers), is really cool. Her and I spent most of the time picking on Charlie. It was really funny. Anyway, at one point Charlie was telling a customer about a movie and saying ( Read more... )

Tonight while girls are slipping into their fancy dresses, I will too. Tonight when everyone leaves for the Prom, Jordyn, Christina, and I will leave for the Passage. Oh the ( Read more... )

Adventures in Babysitting

Ania: Have you talked to Charlie?

Maren: Katie's a tomboy.
