Two more days and I get my first paycheck! Woooohoo! I can’t wait to go speeeeeeeeeeending…..wheeeeeeeee! Dad confirmed today that he’s paying me $7.50 and hour, which is above minimum wage, because he says that I’ve been working hard enough to earn a little extra. He’s a great dad. AND the weather report says that it’s supposed to rain on Monday, which would mean a day off (if it really happens)! I could spend the whole day at the Mall! That would be AWESOME!

I hung out at the lake this afternoon with Sophie until about dinner time. None of our other friends showed up today, and it was kind of nice to be just the two of us. You know, we didn’t feel like we were having to entertain anyone else, and we could just be totally silent and read our books on our towels in the shade, or take a swim and race to the dock. She always wins, cuz her arms and legs are longer, but mine are getting so strong that I really pushed her today. I actually kept up with her! We were both totally out of breath when we got there, and she gave me that shocked look when we pulled ourselves out of the water and sat on the edge. I just shrugged and grinned, and let her wonder whether I’ve gotten faster or she’s gotten slower. It’s fun messing with her mind. It was a relaxing afternoon and one of those I’ll remember forever, just my BFF and me.

Had a great idea! Send Gray a questionnaire about himself…so I can learn more stuff! I don’t have to wait for a response to write him again, do I? (Princess Prissy-Butt picks THE worst moments to try to get my attention. It’s like she just knoooooooows when it’s most inconvenient….like now, when I’m sitting at the computer typing and trying to concentrate. She jumps up on the desk and starts batting at the keys as I type, so I’ll pet her. But when I want to love on her, she’ll have none of it. Stupid cat.)
