"If anybody wants a bird, I can sing like a canary."
-A woman on NPR the other day.
Setting: Suzie's driveway, a parking lot in Park Forest, 'Airplane Jesus' Cemetary, Kyle's house, the hose of the people I babysit for
Characters: Anastasia, that's me; Andrea, my pseudo-sister and best-friend-I'm-not-fucking; Suzie, our beautiful gothic friend; Monica, fuschia-haired friend of Suzie; and other obnoxious people Suzie knows
The incident of fireworks was tuesday, the 4th of July. We pulled in front of Suzie's house just as she pulled up next to us.
"FOLLOW ME!"
After 15 minutes of the winding side roads of Park Forest, we parked in a lot eerily close to where we started. In this case, the fireworks took a background role to silent glow-stick raves, more Marlboro 27s (the bronze box from another post) , ice cream cake, calls from people from July 2nd into the 3rd, and stupid fights between children and parents (but not in that order).
Also, Round the Clock from 11:30 to 6:3o. Last night was watercolours painted with Sweet N Lo packets. We are realizing that We have crushes on all of these boys; James (turns out he prefers James to Jim- I can sympathize), Jason, Nick and Brad. All of them.
James is a tree too. And Nick knows... He knows it all, man. This morning we were "kits and cats".
