i know why.
the green makes me hurl. her, too.

they're being nice and patient.
they look better this way. they have great bodies.
i need it. i look good in blue.

it's called cancer.
what's wrong with him?
that's the difference.
you can watch.
you look better with 'em on.

egg salad and nehi grape.
they're mine but i'll share.
why'd you leave the house open?
can i keep the necklace?
when you gonna ask?
she's the worst one of all!
herry told her he had to pee. but the way he talks. he could just say 'eeee,' like that.
she told him that recess was almost over, an' she wasn't gonna make a trip special, an' he could hold it.
she made him stand against the wall.
she wasn't hurt for real. just screamed like a baby.
petal'll think so, too.
