Today Bobby Berry invited me over to his house after school. He's kind of a strange kid and we've never really been friends, but we've been classmates for like forever, so I went. They had this weird purple carpet in every room, and the whole place smelled like boiled cucumbers. I looked at his collection of model robots and we played a little Assassin's Black 15, and then I went home. It was pretty awkward the whole time. I hope he doesn't ask me again.

You'll never guess what my buddy Wally Lowery showed me after school today. He had this magazine that he said his dad keeps hidden under a mattress, and he totally stole it. So, he opens the magazine and there's this big fold-out poster in the middle, and... The poster was this big list of instructions for building weird vintage postcards. I don't know why you'd hide a magazine like that, and I'm not sure why I was so disappointed. Go fig.
