Jenna's
Diary
Aug

Those
lawyers were really snotty and my cousins were just rude. I thought death
was supposed to bring everyone together? All this blah, blah, about how I
didn't go to the funeral, blah, blah, how I didn't go to see her when she
was sick blah, blah. I don't know what they're so upset about, they both get
to split her house.
They
almost ruined the day for me.
I
got the keys!!!! The keys to my very own cottage!! Deck shoes. I need deck
shoes.

I
told Mr. Van Heusan that I was going to take my holiday's from the 18- Sept
1. The guy is unbelievable. He just kind of coughed really nervously and said
something about me only being at the job for a month. I could not believe
it, I was really pissed.
I
just gave him the silent treatment and read my magazine--if
he wants to play it that way that's fine.
My head is burning, I
tried to wash my hair but there is something wrong with the extensions. they
kind of look like my Barbie after I washed her hair in the toilet with Lysol.

I
think my mother is stealing from me. I'm not quite sure, but I always put
an emergency ten in the flour cannister with all my safety pins and thread.
I was kind of short (I had wanted to hit Mr.Van Heusan for an advance but
I'm still not speaking to him) so I figured I'd use the ten and it wasn't
there.
My
mother is hardly around anymore. She's is off before I get up and she's' not
here when I get home. The only reason I know she's here at all is the boxes
she keeps bringing in. I looked in her room (my room) and there is box after
box of vomit-making Precious Moments. I am so sick of sleeping on the couch.My
back hurts and the hum of the refrigerator make me feel like I'm sleeping
in a speedboat.
She
and her sad eyed friends have to go..

Michael
called!!!!! I can't believe it. I knew it! He must have seen me walking outside
of his house Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Those extensions really made
me look hot before they started to rot.
It gives me the creeps though, to think of him peeking out the window at me.
I feel kind of violated.
It
was soooo cool because I didn't really know who he was, honest to God so I
got to play that moment of "...Michael?...." I'm pretty sure it
got to him. I put just the right amount of disinterest in my voice even when
I figured out who it was.
He
covered pretty well by asking if his mother Aimee was there. (HOW LAME) He
said he was kind of worried about her because he never sees her and she's
never home. He figured that she was with my mother.
I
played it really cool, and told him that I'd been really busy with my cottage
and all, like I was just able to slip it in not even like I was bragging and
that I was taking my holidays the last two weeks and what a drag it is to
organize.
He
just said if I heard from his mother could I call him and gave me the number.
I almost screwed up by saying the last four digits, but I coughed and covered
up.
This
is great!!!! I just imagine that freak sitting in front of his computer trying
to think of excuses to call. He is probably just eating his heart out.
This
is great.

What a lousy day!! The only good thing was Mr. Van Heusan finally gave in.
I'll leave Friday afternoon and come back on the first, that will give me
the long weekend to recuperate.
This afternoon I realized I don't have a car or a driver's license. How am
I going to get up to the cottage? I called the bus lines to see how far they
go and the nearest bus station is over ten mile away. Shit!
Also I think my head is infected.

My
mother is definitely stealing from me. I put a five dollar bill on the coffee
table and when I got home it was gone. I cannot believe someone would steal
from their own daughter!!! After all I've done for her, I've given her a home,
food and this is how she repays me? I waited up to confront her and she crept
in about 1:30.
She
didn't deny it or admit to it she just started to blubber about a whole bunch
of things since time began, how much she misses my father how lonely she is
how how she has never ever felt important, how this is the first time in her
life that she ever felt she belonged, that she finally had people around her
that listened to her that...well I didn't get all of it because I fell asleep,
but I want that five back.

There
is so much to do, this cottage business is really time consuming. I need
new clothes that's for sure, the place will need more furniture because
Aunt Josie R.I.P. had really crappy taste and I still haven't figured
out how I'm going to get up there.
People
can be so jealous when you're a property owner. I phoned Irene to tell
her and she was just kind of offhand about it. Like her friends inherit
cottages every day. It wasn't until I hung up that I realized I'm not
speaking to her because of that party incident and Joanna was just kind
of cool about it. I'm telling her the most exciting thing that's ever
happened and all she can do is harp on about me not calling since graduation.
People
can be so selfish.
Michael
called again, well actually he returned my call. I left a message saying
I was worried about my mother too. It was a great excuse to talk about
the cottage. He suggested that we get together tomorrow for a coffee.
I don't know what I'm going to do with my hair. I don't know a lot about
false hair but I'm pretty sure that even the best looking extensions shouldn't
include pus.
He
is going to sooooo regret saying he wasn't attracted to me. He's going to
be panting for me by the time I'm finished with him, and then I'll just tell
him that I'm not attracted to him. See how he feels.

New to Jenna's Diary?
You are probably thinking"Say, I'll never catch up, so there's no point starting now."
Well that's not true, Jenna can't follow a thought for more than a second so you won't be missing a thing. (And quite frankly that attitude is the reason you are not a neurosurgeon.)
