Yesterday I had to talk to the police after school. Aunt Harry went with me. They kept asking me the same questions, over and over, and it got very tiresome. Had I stayed at home all evening? Was I upset about flunking Mr. Roberts's English class? I told them yes, I had, and tried to tell them about my pendulum, but they wouldn't listen at all. They don't seem very interested in physics. I told them Mr. Roberts had made me re-write my essays but hadn't said anything about flunking, and that I hadn't worried about it because he's hard on all his students. Then they got on to who else was doing badly in Mr. Roberts' classes and who had had troubles with him and I said I didn't know about anyone else's grades and didn't pay any attention to who was upset with who as it wasn't very interesting. They seemed to think I was lying about this because they kept going over and over it again and again. I was getting really tired and I hadn't been able to get anyone to tell me if I still had to rewrite all those essays so I started crying and Aunt Harry said she thought if they didn't have any new questions we would leave because they could find us if they thought of anything else.
When I got home Chip and Jimmy were playing with the pendulum. They were setting up dominoes in a ring and watching the pendulum knock them over as it swung around. I watched this for a while and it cheered me up a lot but I was still too upset to fix all the errors in this post and so I didn't put it up until today. Also, Rupert called and he is out of the cave and said it was a lot of fun although he hurt his ankle.
