I don’t get girls. They’re weird. If I like a girl I start to feel funny when she’s around and then I can’t talk right, and then she makes fun of me and doesn’t like me. And most of them don’t wanna talk about robots and stuff. ---

I got The Phantom Tollbooth, it’s real good. Heh. I know, they’re mean. Ooo, I read that one before. I really liked it. It was very fascinating. Have you read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy? I thought it was really good but there were some parts I didn’t get. ---
