Hullo, hullo, ladies and gents! I'm having a fair good day though I forgot to get allergy medicine for the second time this week. But I'm good, kitties are good and it's gonna finally start to cool off this week. Plus I went on a little buying spree, getting such essential things like a black and white Daryl Dixon and $26 skin cleaner. And since I'm pretty awake, I decided to work on my snark. Well, let's go!
Part 1! -
Song of the Day-
Chapter 6!
Another baby-sitting chapter I refuse to cover. Let's go over to
Parole de Chat, won't we?
Chapter 7!
At school, it's time for the groups to gather together. MA is kinda lost and I totally sympathise with her there. I'm so glad I never had to do anything like this during school. I'd probably have a break down. She spots Logan and goes chasing after him. They meet up with Miranda and Pete and there's bad blood between those two because Pete used to be an ass to her.
They get seated and kinda just sit around looking at each other awkwardly. A teacher comes over with Cokie because Cokie is a dirty liar and said Meghan Rinehart is the only author that intrests her and so does anyone want to switch with her group? Now, I'm a hard ass and would be like 'Sit down and suck it up, bitch' if Cokie came to me with that cock and bull story. But we all know SMS teachers aren't the sharpest bunch. Miranda jumps at the opportunity to leave Pete behind. And not gonna lie, I can't stand Cokie. She's such a phony. And I hate girls that do the whole 'Damsel in distress' thing around boys they like.
Logan takes charge and asks if anyone has read Meghan Rinehart's books. He says he knows MA has read them all and she gives him a small smile. He smiles back and and MA immediately wants him back. Pete, proving he's great, says her books are for girls and Logan gets mad because he just said he's read them. Pete, wanting to further prove that SMS teachers are shit, asks what the Hell their assignment is anyway. Are they supposed to be studying the author or their books? Yeah, this should have been cleared up beforehand. WTF is wrong with SMS? Anyway, their time is up before anything was settled. Pete asks MA if she thought that was a productive use of their time and date him, MA! He's right there!
That night Dawn informes MA that she overheard Grace say that Cokie doesn't care about studying MR and is just trying to get to Logan. MA is like 'Duh' because how the Hell wouldn't she know that. Dawn says that Cokie saw her chance with Logan being available and MA thinks 'He's not available, he's mine'. MA? Take a breath and unhook your claws. You're not with Logan any more. And frankly, you're better off. Let Cokie have his lame ass.
Chapter 8!
MA is heading to Cokie's house and can't believe she's doing such a thing. She calls herself a wimp for going along with what Cokie wants and poor MA. I feel that. Cokie answers the door all happy but deflates when she sees it's MA. MA is pretty dumb in that she thinks Cokie doesn't fit into her house. That she thought the rooms would be as 'cold as she was'.
The others arrive and Cokie makes an ass of herself over Logan. They discuss what they should be doing so I guess their teachers never cleared that up. Cokie announces that she read four Beatrix Potter books in a week when she was ten. If I was MA or Pete I would take Cokie. put her in a burlap sack, put it in a trunk and put it away in the attic because she's obviously going to be zero help. Also, when I think of Beatrix Potter, I remember reading one of her books and the cat in it put a bag on his head and I about peed myself laughing.
Cokie, wanting to be put in that trunk, suggests that they read to each other. Pete, who I love in this book, says yeah, that's just what he wants, to read to Logan. Logan says they should take one of each of her books and read it and Cokie asks if she didn't write any picture books. MA shows her snarky side and says they're studying young adult books, not Babar. They decide to read four of her books each and write up on them. They break up and MA hangs around hoping to leave with Logan. She overhears Cokie asking him out and runs away before she can hear his answer.
Chapter 9!
Hell nah. Let's see what I can dig up. Ah, Shmorky's birthday is coming up so let's watch
this!
Chapter 10!
MA is pissed. Logan had the gall to go out with Cokie. Several times. But he talks to MA at the library and is pleasant enough. At another group meeting, Cokie is saying how they went to see Top Hat (again with that movie?) and Logan is kinda a hag because when MA wanted to see The Music Man he said that movie was for kids. He wanted to see
Halloween III which is an infinitely goofier movie. Also, don't listen to the jingle. You won't get it out of your head till next Halloween. Cokie is an idiot some more and c'mon, Mary Anne. Sack, trunk, attic.
They talk some about their project and it's clear Logan and Cokie aren't doing their work. You're gonna need more burlap sacks. I swear I would beat Cokie with my beating bat because she asks if they have to turn in only one paper so she's clearly planning on not doing any work. At least MA is getting mad because she realises she and Pete are going to be the only ones doing any work. I swear, the shiptease is awful in this book.
