Q&A Monday (#1)

Monday, May 25th, 2009

Welcome to the inaugural edition of Q&A Monday!

I got so many questions (keep sending! keep sending!) that I was considering breaking it up into two different Q&A days but then I realized that such a decision would no doubt be detrimental to my overall productivity because I am not the impressive Meg Cabot who somehow manages to be both a prolific blogger AND novelist AND has still finds time time to ride her bike AND watch awesomely bad reality TV. I know my own limitations, so I’m sticking to Q&A Mondays, Senryu Tuesdays and (retro)blog Thursdays for now. That will keep me busy enough while I write BUMPED, my first post-Jessica Darling novel.

The first question comes from Amber Lyn, who happens to be the creator and mod of the longest running Jessica Darling fan site. (more…)

“This is a hard paper to read. I’ll never assign it again!”

Here I am, draining the life out of my poor ninth grade English teacher by mistaking snottiness for cleverness.

TJ and I went to Pizza Hut to celebrate our track team’s undefeated season. (By the way, I didn’t run against Lacey and I have a stress fracture and can’t run for at least four weeks.) Then we went to K-Mart as a superjoke and had so much fun doing stupid stuff like trying on wigs, and spending 60 cents on the vending machines. We got two super bouncy rubber balls, a plastic frying pan for a Barbie doll, a ring, and a little soldier guy.

My knee hurts. I got a 96 in this class for the marking period. I so rightfully deserve it. Onward with more important goals…

T.J. and I both have colds so we’re both snorting and wheezing. Beth just looks at us and starts to laugh. I’m bored. I’m practically the only person done with all my work so I’m stuck writing in this journal. Usually it’s not bad but it’s just that I don’t have anything to write about.

Okay. I’ll make something up.

So I’m 14. Yippie. That means I only have 4 years till I’m 18. Or one year until it’s perfectly acceptable for an athletic, muscular, intelligent, funny and good-looking high school junior to like me.

DREAM ON, BABES.

TJ is absent today. She’s hanging with the dudes in Binghamton, NY, HOME OF LS: THE TALENTED SEX GODDESS. TJ says that LS always brags about how she thought Jay was cute in 7th grade and how she got to wear Steve’s watch in 7th grade and how she was the first person to like Tom in 7th grade. And I’m like, “Let’s face it, you were the only HORNY girl in 7th grade.”
