been going out with him for a week and a half.
SnowAngel:

zoegirl:
angelaâ¦
SnowAngel:
i know, i know. but i think iâve secretly been liking him for a lot longer, and that makes it so much more real.
zoegirl:
are you sure heâs worth it?
SnowAngel:
yes, iâm sure! iâm totally sure! except when heâs being an asshole. *grinds teeth*
zoegirl:
i think you should let HIM come to YOU next time. make sure he knows that youâre not just automatically available 24-7.
SnowAngel:
good point.
SnowAngel:
okay, iâm not gonna bother with him anymore until he shows a sign of wanting to be bothered.
zoegirl:
zoegirl:
anyway, we have maddieâs bday party to focus on. i talked to delia in homeroom, and sheâs totally up for it. that means everyone we invited is coming except mary kate.
SnowAngel:
we still need to work out food deets, tho. i wish it was this weekend instead of next.
zoegirl:
angela? stop thinking about rob.
SnowAngel:
iâll try
Tues, Sept 28, 10:15 PM E.D.T .
mad maddie:
did u have a better day today, even tho mr. miklos picked on u in math?
SnowAngel:
i guess
SnowAngel:
things improved with rob, anyway.
mad maddie:
meaning?
SnowAngel:
meaning he apologized for getting off the phone with me so quickly yesterday.
mad maddie:
good
SnowAngel:
yeah. i acted all puzzled, like i didnât even know what he was talking about. then u know what i told him?
mad maddie:
what?
SnowAngel:
that iâd gone out and walked on the train tracks until midnight, just by myself.
mad maddie:
u went to the train tracks? by yrself?
SnowAngel:
hell no! r u crazy?
mad maddie:
shit, ur always going on about how freaky they r, how ur afraid a hobo is gonna come and molest u.
SnowAngel:
cuz one cld. u never know.
mad maddie:
so whyâd u say that then? to rob?
SnowAngel:
cuz i liked the idea of it. cuz i liked the idea of him thinking that i went out and walked all night on the train tracks. itâs a lot better than what i really did, which was lie on my bed and listen to Mumford & Sons and feel sorry for myself.
SnowAngel:
but u know whatâs strange?
mad maddie:
what?
SnowAngel:
it made me start wondering how much of other ppl r just images they made up. like maybe ppl lie about all kinds of thingsâhow would we ever know?
mad maddie:
totally. like today in math, when carl balkin was sitting in the back guffawing with his buds about all the âactionâ he got with some freshman chick. i was like, âyeah, right, carl. not even a freshman wld get it on with u.â
SnowAngel:
so true
mad maddie:
and that necklace he was wearing, with all the little metal balls? tray fruitay.
SnowAngel:
god, i know
SnowAngel:
but u shouldnât use that expression.
mad maddie:
what expression?
SnowAngel:
âtray fruitay.â itâs not nice.
mad maddie:
???
mad maddie:
jana said it this morning in homeroom, and it cracked me up.
SnowAngel:
yeah, but itâs like making fun of someone for being gay.
mad maddie:
no itâs not, cuz itâs an insult u could only use on someone whoâs *not* gay.
mad maddie:
if someone was trying to look gay on purpose then it would be no big deal. but if someone looks like an idiot just cuz he is an idiot, then itâs his fault and he should be mocked.
SnowAngel:
but ur mocking him by calling him gay, which is mean to ppl who r gay.
mad maddie:
oh, plz
SnowAngel:
u know iâm right
mad maddie:
donât u think itâs the slightest bit funny? tray fruitay?
SnowAngel:
i think itâs funny that U think itâs funny, given that itâs an expression that came from jana.
mad maddie:
ohhhhhhh. so itâs wrong to use âgayâ as an insult, but u can dismiss something just cuz a certain person said it? thatâs allowed, then?
SnowAngel:
excuse me?
mad maddie:
i think ur being hypocritical, thatâs all.
SnowAngel:
*steps a safe distance away* o-k-a-a-a-a-yâ¦
