i’m nearly finished reading The Heart is a Lonely Hunter. i’m on page 202 and still nothing has happened except one guy farted, and that was pretty funny. it was unexpected.
i’m also nearly finished with The Da Vinci Code. hee.
FROM THE DESK OF THE MAYOR OF CRAZYTOWN:
i had to get on to Crazy Margaret yesterday for going through my trash can.
“but it’s just trash!”
“yes, but it’s MY trash. it’s none of your business.”
“but it’s a garbage can! i was throwing something away!”
“look, when it’s on the street, fine. but when it’s next to my house? you’re not to touch it, got it?”
“but i was throwing something away and that’s when i saw-”
“Margaret! quit snooping around my house! and you can throw stuff away IN YOUR OWN GARBAGE CAN.”
laura and kris were lucky enough to have a Margaret Experience yesterday. maybe laura will write about it.
i forgot to tell everyone the good news: Lola FINALLY had her car taken away from her. so the streets in Gadsden are a little more safe than before. everyone who lives or works or visits the downtown area has had a Lola Road Rage Moment. even if they don’t know it yet. she’s the old troll who drove a goldish honda with a couple of hubcaps gone and the side mirror smashed. she drove about 10 miles an hour (if you were lucky). and when you were stuck behind her in traffic you were filled with an instant and fiery rage like that of a million suns burning. then, once you realized you were behind Lola you immediately deflated and had plenty of time to text message all your friends that you were stuck behind Lola.
well, i’m proud to report that gone are those days. and i know that sara n. is probably the happiest person to find out that news as she seemed to get stuck behind her every other day on the way to or from school.
although Crazy Margaret told me that Lola plans on getting another car.
that would be quite a trick. but as crazy margaret has said before, lola is a witch, so maybe she can conjure herself another car…maybe one like the Munsters had. and maybe the Munsters Theme would play as she drove. that, that would be worth getting stuck in traffic over.
