I can’t come to a sleepover. My mother said I had to help take care of my little brother because she “can’t hear herself think anymore” and “She’s going to scream the next time one of the four of us asks her to do _anything_”. You don’t want to hear her scream, so I better deal with the stupid 3 year old. I wish he had been a girl. A sister wouldn’t have been nearly as annoying. ---

> [@633squadron](#): > > Yeah, and you got COOTIES! Ew, don’t drink from the water fountain, jelly elly put her cooties in it! GROSS! Circle circle, dot dot, now I have my cootie shot! Hey, at the party, we should call Tommy Mason and ask him which 4th grade girl he thinks is the cutest. And then, when **Flutterby** falls asleep, we can put her training bra in the freezer! (I just have to add: Tommy Mason is the name of a kid my mom used to play with in the 1940s. One day, my Aunt Doris and Tommy wouldn’t let my mom play with them, and in retaliation, Mom bit a giant chunk out of Tommy’s arm. That was the only time my mom ever got spanked as a kid (she was/is a real goody-two-shoes). Tommy Mason is something of a minor legend in our family.) ---
