Mon Nov 25 – 63
Woke up in a wonderful mood in spite of the president’s funeral but when I see Mom & Dad – poof. 3 girls invited me to the Kohut house but no I must scrub the bathroom floor! Miserable again. A dirtier, more disgustingly humiliating task cannot be imagined. You need a knife to scrape the goo. Even at the Waverleys we didn’t have to do that! Believe me when I was down on my knees I made a resolution never to have to do this when I’m grown up. (Does Avril have to scrub her floor? No!) Wish we could watch the President’s funeral on TV but my parents are too highbrow to own a set! Nov. 26 – 63 Another disgusting day at school struggling with Pythagorean theorems I don’t understand. I was not meant for this but I think I’ll live. Called my pen pal Mark at military school today about the party Sat – I tingle just thinking about him. Hope he kisses me and puts his arms around me! My best friend Polly doesn’t understand it at all. It’s as if she has no pleasure in being a girl. Wed Nov 27 – 63 Holidays at last! Genevieve came home with Jack. She is cool as ever with preppy glamour but has put on weight. Jack is neat and very handsome even if his skin is bad.. As soon as they find how dead Brockton really is they’ll be out of here. Thurs Nov 28 - 63 Best Thanksgiving ever! Very informal. Relatives laughed at all my jokes. Genevieve and Jack exchanging subtle smiles as if they have secrets no one knows. Perhaps they have. After dinner dancing and ice skating (Jack & Genevieve went to the movies.) Came home & watched slides of our European sail. Perfect day! Reading Creeps by Night. (Shiver) Sun Dec 1 63 Sat dressing carefully for the party when the phone rang. It was Mark! He has such a manly voice. I told him to meet me at the Field House. It was a keen party but I don’t think he had fun. No kissing. Hope he invites me to the Christmas party! School Tomorrow – ugh. Jay and Jack have gone.
