interrupted. you were all, “i’m kissing chive on the washing machine! hahaha, isn’t that hilarious? i’m kissing chive on the washing machine!”
mad maddie:
cuz u r my friend. cuz i wanna share my life with u.
zoegirl:
and then you gave your phone to chive and made him talk to me. it was very random and unnecessary.
mad maddie:
i did not make chive talk to u.
mad maddie:
did i?
zoegirl:
you don’t remember? afterward, doug and i talked about how much we hate it when people do that. “here, talk to my great-aunt zelda.” “here, talk to my buddy from camp whom you’ve never met and never will.”
mad maddie:
weird. well, what did u say to chive on the phone? what did HE say?
zoegirl:
he was nice, i guess. he was like, “let’s see, you’re the shy one, right?”
zoegirl:
maddie, did u tell him i was shy?
mad maddie:
i dunno, i might have
zoegirl:
why?
mad maddie:
what do u mean, why? cuz ur my bud.
mad maddie:
i told him all about angela too
zoegirl:
well, that’s sweet, but please don’t go around telling people i’m shy.
mad maddie:
but u R shy
zoegirl:
a little, maybe. with some people. but it made me feel dumb.
mad maddie:
chive made u feel dumb?
zoegirl:
noooo, not chive. he must have realized i was embarrassed, because he said, “hey now, nothing wrong with being shy. just don’t be afraid to let loose, okay? you can’t always stand around with your hands in your pockets. sometimes you’ve got to bust a move!”
mad maddie:
ha. bust a move. not sure how that relates to being shy …
mad maddie:
so did u like him? don’t u think he’s awesome?
zoegirl:
i did like him. he had that drunk-and-sincere thing going on, but he was kind of charming.
mad maddie:
he’s cute too. more like gorgeous.
zoegirl:
if you say so. but what’s going on here? i thought you and chive were just friends.
mad maddie:
we r!
mad maddie:
what, u think i wanna be his girlfriend?
zoegirl:
doug assumed you were. he saw the two of you together, and he said it looked like you were really into each other.
mad maddie:
that’s just chive. he does this deep-gaze thing when ur talking to him, as if ur the only person in the whole world that matters.
zoegirl:
well, like i said, doug thought you were a couple.
mad maddie:
doug, doug, doug. why the obsession with doug? anyway, the two of u hung out for the whole party, but that doesn’t make YOU a couple, now does it?
zoegirl:
hanging out versus hanging all over …
zoegirl:
kidding!
mad maddie:
i’m gonna let that slide, cuz at least i’m getting some.
zoegirl:
ick! maddie!!!
mad maddie:
it was cool that doug came to dylan’s, though. i don’t usually see him at those parties.
zoegirl:
we were chatting at work, and i told him about it. i thought it was cool that he came too. i was glad.
mad maddie:
i liked his shirt
zoegirl:
“tough guys wear pink”? he wore it on purpose for the kids at Kidding Around. graham especially. (graham’s that adorable three-year-old i told you about.)
zoegirl:
last week graham wore pink socks, and a girl named ashleigh told him that only girls are allowed to wear pink.
mad maddie:
alas, it starts so young
zoegirl:
but graham didn’t seem fazed. i call him graham cracker.
mad maddie:
bet he’s never heard that in all his 3 yrs
zoegirl:
last night i played candyland with him, and i let him land on queen frostine even though that wasn’t the card he drew. he said, “you’re the best, zoe.” he kept saying it over and over. “you’re the best.”
mad maddie:
awwww
mad maddie:
so i thought angela did pretty well with the whole party thing, didn’t u?
zoegirl:
freakily well, given all that’s going on.
mad maddie:
no doubt cuz of THE BRACELET
zoegirl:
ah, yes, *the bracelet*
mad maddie:
but now she’s having her thanksgiving dinner at eleven in the frickin morning and preparing to jet off to
