in California
THURSDAY (MORNING)
I am going to tell on Belinda and Nathan. I'll tell Ms. Elkon everything. I'll tell her about the swirlies and the lunch money-stealing and the violence.

THURSDAY (EVENING)
I didn't tell. And you won't believe what happened. I'm still in shock myself.
First, I was on my way to the principal's office when Belinda pinned me down. "Please don't tell!" she begged. "I just wanted to be cool!"
"Well, you weren't being cool. I got poo water in my hair. Do you think you would like that?"
"No,"
"You were kicking me around like a mule."
Belinda grinned. "You can call me Mule. 'Cause I like that name."
I smiled back. "All right, Mule."
But Nathan wouldn't accept. "She's a priss! A sissy! I hate her!"
"I hate you too," I frowned. "You're like a sidekick or something," I was hoping to make friends with him too.
"I HATE YOU!!!!!!!"
Belinda growled, "Look, James is a great girl and you're terrible!"
"Terrible singer," I added.
"Fine!" Nathan screamed. "You're not my friend anymore!"
"Good, 'cause you don't deserve me!" Belinda screeched.
Nathan stormed away, with a rain cloud overhead.
"He really doesn't deserve you, Mule," I said, patting her back.
"Thanks James,"
"Friends?" I asked.
"No," Mule replied. "Friends forever,"

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa--
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-- ow-ow-ow! Whoa, I didn't expect THAT! Nicely done, my friend. Question: Why does Belinda call Jaimy James... for the first time? I mean I have my share of nicknames (you don't even WANT to know how many play on words Kazel can have...) anyway, if my worst enemy suddenly was friends with me and said "Look, Hazey (yes, that IS one of my nicknames, sad isn't it? ;-) is a great girl" I 'd get kinda freaked out. Anyway, I'm liking it more and more!
-Have a Stagilicous Day!-
