Pretend you’re an 11-year-old girl

I would like to dedicate this article to my good friend, Darren Tyrone Johnson, who has always wanted his name on the Internet.

Pretend you’re an 11-year-old girl (OK, that might be hard for boys, and even harder for actual 11-year-old girls, but you know what I mean). You are going on a very long trip and you have to leave your friends behind PLUS bring not-a-whole-lot PLUS wash yourself in those icky public bathrooms and showers PLUS be cramped with your PARENTS! How do you feel?

a) Sad (My heart bleeds for you)
b) Disgusted ( ’cause of the bathrooms)
c) Worried (Did I remember my undies and toys and books and parents and who-knows-what-else?)
d) Happy (I finally get a break from that dump of a room)
e) Mad (Did you say my PARENTS? #*@$^&!)
f) Nonchalant (La-di-da-di-da, not a care in the world)
g) Like Screaming (Did you say my parents? And icky bathrooms?AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)

These are slightly odd and they’re all likely possible.

    Sierra,

    About that “that dump of a room.”

    Perhaps if you cleaned it occasionally . . .

    Dear Sierra,
    I am going to use you as part of my lesson Tuesday in school on the LCD. DO you want the “eating” picture or post another? There are some really cute boys on my team that will see you. However, many of the boys will be more interested in the “critters” you see on the road not the 2 legged kind; I mean the ones we have studied in Science. I’ll let you know what the group feels about your survey.

    Greetings from Alex, Andrew, Adam, Erin and lucky. Hope you guys are having fun! Can’t wait to see you when you stop by New Jersey. I miss waking up and seeing the big Sandia Mountains in your backyard! Hope you have a great time and you can count on me reading ALL of your posts!

    Okay! I can’t wait to stay a your place either! I’m not sure how much longer I can take being crowded in with my PARENTS and sleeping in this small-ish (even though it’s the biggest in the RV. Just so you know I have an e-mail address now!
