School
tomorrow, and I’m as excited to chat with Robbie about the latest Laymon novel
that he loaned me on Friday and that I finished (this one was called “One Rainy
Night” and was an incredible non-stop roller coaster ride of mayhem, action,
and unadulterated bloodshed) as I was at the chance to talk with Monica.
It
took me the whole weekend of dwelling on her to realize that I suddenly had an
easy “in” with her for a conversation. All I needed to do was find out from
Robbie what Costello books she had already read, and see if I’d read them as
well. Or if she’d read one that I hadn’t and I’d read another, at least we
could still compare notes.
It’d
be a great conversation starter at least.
I feel
like a kid in grade nine again, steeling up the courage to ask a girl to dance
with me.
It’s
this queasy, uneasy, yet enjoyable feeling.

You should really take
this one slow and always remember that she's one of Sarah's friends. Who knows
what Sarah has told her about you?
