the wild bunch

OK, so Homecoming was not a disaster. But not so romantic either.

Ren was such a big brother. And I know thats the way its suppose to be, but when you are all dressed up in black lacey ruffles and army boots, you just want to do something Madonna might do.

Ren was like dancing with an inanimate object. Really. But Chip was a wild man. He could make circles around Ren on the dance floor. He's such a clown. I think one of the chaperons thought he was drunk. He was so hyper. And Sasha just stood there giving him funny looks from time to time. But I caught on, and we had fun, chasing each other around. True, we might not have been the most sophisticated high schoolers in the bunch. But it was a work out with Chip.

Now I have a cold. A bad cough.

I also found out my cousin hooked up with some chick on the Internet. God, I finally get him fixed up with Angie. Thinking that would be so perfect. Its Angie's fault. I'm sure of it. I don't want to think bad of him, but I'm beginning to think my cousin just wants sex, not a relationship. I don't want to think that about him, but what if its true.

Now, I know you are thinking, don't be so judgey. I don't want too. I don't. But I'll think about it in the middle of the night and then sit up and want to shout...is that all there is to my cousin? Is it?

I think Ren thinks I might not be adult enough for him. He won't say it. But he's been looking at me differently since that dance. Like I might be 12 instead of 16.

I can really be grownup when I want to be. I can. Just not right now. I'm so under the weather. Hope I'll be ready for Halloween because I promised Chip I'd go trick or treating with him.
