Mom made pound cake for dinner again. Yuck! She said I couldn't go play Final Creed 13 until I'd cleaned my plate, so I had to choke it down. When I grow up I'm just gonna eat Bitter Soy Twigs for every meal!

You'll never guess what my buddy Johnny Benson 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 collecting stamps. I don't know why you'd hide a magazine like that, and I'm not sure why I was so disappointed. Go fig.
