Dear Jouranl--
Howdy do! This is your old pal, Johnn-o, writing. I am sorry if I haven't written in you for a while, but lately I just haven't felt like writing. If it isn't arguing with my stupid sister, Ronee' (and she started it!), it is having to put up with my stupid m.d. again. Today was a bad day for me; I kept dropping more things, and I got tired of the kids looking at me or laughing at me for being so klutzy! And then I got busted by the principal because I was late getting back from the bathroom...I was sooo mad....I couldn't help it that the zipper on my pants got stuck!
I am officially not grounded any more, but I am still a little angry at Ronee' because it seems like she always seems to get her own way, and she gets to have many exciting things happen to her while my life is well...just plain BORING. Nothing really exciting has happened to me lately, and I am tired of sitting around, growing moldy from inactivity! No wonder my muscular dystrophy has been acting up lately! SHEESH-o-MATIC!
I am also missing my mom; she was in Sri Lanka for a week, helping out the tsunami victims, and I was worrying so much I couldn't sleep, and now I am really dragging along. I am so tired I can barely keep my eyes open! I also haven't been able to eat all that well because I have been nauseated, worrying about my mom in Sri Lanka; but it seems that she made it through the week, and now she is on her way home on a plane; and she will be home sometime tomorrow! GOOD! I can't wait! I can't wait to tell her how crazy Ronee' has driven me this past week and how she got me into trouble! GRRR! Ronee' drives me CRAZY at times!! Then Ronee' can get it from mom!
I also am sick of eating pizza and leftovers; I am ready for some HOT cooked meals! Daddy can cook, but mom
is the cooking star of our family, and she can really whip up some of the most fantastic dishes! Her Cajun and Mexican dishes are to DIE for, and I also love her Italian dishes; and she really makes a killer pizza, way better than Domino's, Papa Jack's, or Pizza Hut EVER could! I bet if she offered her pizza recipe for sale, she'd close all the pizza places, and my mom would be a rich woman! :) But after a week of pizza, it starts to get a little old....
Well, ol' Star Face made it to her show; which means more attention heaped upon her. That is all good for her, but what about me?? What am I? Chopped liver?? It's like she gets all the glory, and I get SQUAT!! GRRR!! I will be soooo glad when she gets back from Hollywood; then she can get back to being a normal kid...her usual annoying, pain in the REARRRRRR self! No wonder we have been at each other's throats because she is getting a big head, and I don't like it AT all! Someone needs to pop her head with a pin because she is getting all heady! GRRR!!
I am glad to say that I passed my midterm. I passed all the tests in all my classes; I ought to have...I studied my BUTTINSKI off! I think I spent a million years studying, to make sure I knew all the stuff for the midterms; no wonder I am so wiped out lately! I am glad that is out of my hair; I HATE tests with a purple passion! Whoever invented tests must have been related to the DEVIL himself because I am sure the person must love to see kids suffer and sweat it out! GRR!!
I haven't heard from Rebekkah in Cali lately; I hope she and her family are okay...Cali has had some rotten weather lately, and I hope and pray shes is okay...I guess I will have to email her later, to see if she is okay! I know she isn't mad at me, but it's been a while since I last heard from her...
Well, I gotta' go; the bus has just pulled up in front of my house, so I gotta' scoot. I will write more in here later; until then, toodles!
~Your pal, Johnny. :( :) (sad, yet feeling better--a LITTLE better, not much; but anything does help!!).
