Hi! It’s me! Lily!!!
I didn’t post last night. Bad me. I’ve actually been a little worse about that lately. Aww. I guess I’ve just been so busy it slips my mind sometimes. Oh well. It happens I guess.
It’s getting hot! Texas summer hot! Hotly hot! Well… that doesn’t work as well.
But yesterday there was a lot to do!!!
Liz and I practiced a lot – shse’s pretty good too!!! I mean I knew that, but she could probably do the Tchaikovsky violin concerto. I told her that, and she said “you really think so?” I do, she’s pretty good, and if I can do Schumann, she can do Tchaikovsky. I could see the gears turning over in her head, but we kept working on what we were working on. Her recital is pretty soon anyway, so doesn’t do to get distracted.
Beth’s really not doing well – she got dumped by her boy friend last night. She thought they were going on a date, but he just ended it. Poor Beth. She was crying and that’s one reason I didn’t post last night, we had a girl’s night, just her and me. She was so sad. She just ate ice cream and sobbed.
I told her there will be other boys and she’s smart and beautiful and will have no problem attracting a nice boy.
“But I wanted that one!”, she said, and wailed some more.
Awwwww.
Jack and I were going to go on a date, but I postponed it. Instead he came over with a heap of chocolate. Bless him (and not in the “bless your heart” way some southern people talk – really, bless him.) He gave Beth a big hug and told her it’s his loss.
That made her cry again and he just held her a little. Awww. I knew he’s not interested in her, he was treating her like a little sister, and that’s just the best thing!
He didn’t want to stick around for the girls’ night – he said “it’s a girls’ night and I’m not a girl” – he’s right, but still. But the chocolate more than made up for anything!!!
Anyway, we ate most of the chocolate, and then I crawled in with her and just held her all night. She would wake up and sniffle and go back to sleep, and wake up and sniffle some more and go back to sleep. Aww. I hope Jack never does that to me. I don’t ever want to hurt that bad.
She seemed to do a little better this morning. We went to church, and she was so downcast. But the chocolate pancakes after helped her a little. They always help me.
Jack and I went on our date this afternoon. We didn’t get any “alone time”, but we did go to the mall, and walked around holding hands and window shopping. It was fun.. He bought me a cinnabon. It’s not chocolate, but too much chocolate is bad for you,, as good as it is, so that worked fine.
It’s sooo hot outside.
Anyway, that’s the weekend. Poor Beth, but I’m sure she’ll recover and find another boy she likes. She’s so pretty and smart, I’m sure she’s already got some interest.
