THINGS THAT SEND ME OFF THE PLANET

JM totally wanted 2 kiss me yesterday!!!!! I KNOW he did. Next time we’re together, he WILL… or maybe I’ll kiss him. Wahoo!
Maybe on the ski train, in front of Mark & every1.

Chris heard abt my “spin” in Massey’s new ’stang… couldn’t believe I got 2 ride in it b4 he did… that we rode w/ the top
down. Wicked, he said.

Chris didn’t say anything abt the tix, which means Jeff didn’t tell him. How cool is that? Most guys would totally brag abt
speeding & getting pulled over but Jeff didn’t.

I rode in a hot sports car w/ Jeff Massey w/out wearing a seatbelt, got stopped by cops, & got away w/ it. We share a secret.
It will bind us together 4ever.

Jilly squealed @ all the right places when I told her… she called me Wild Girl.

Reede went crazy when I told her… told me I was smokin’.

THINGS THAT ARE KIND OF ANNOYING BUT NOT ENOUGH TO BRING ME BACK TO EARTH

Mom was pretty cool when I got home but freaked abt the top being down on Jeff’s car. Like I might get pneumonia or something
from the cold air.

Mom asked if I had a crush on JM. That makes it sound SO middle school. I’m in LOVE. But I didn’t tell her that. I told her
we were just friends… she said good cuz he’s a lot older & she didn’t want me 2 get hurt & btw, don’t 4get u can’t date till
u r a lot older & not guys who r almost 3 years older than u. I KNOW. She gave me this lecture w/ Blake… blah, blah, blah.

And what’s w/ this getting hurt thing? R she & Mark in on this 2gether? They both need 2 stay out of my biz!

Mom also pulled some twisted adult psychology: “That’s my smart girl. I never have to worry about you.”

Ugh. Why did that feel like a bad thing?

Probably cuz I’m wild. I’m smokin’. I SO rock.
