Thanks for the Memories Excerpts from the second diary(journal!) of Daria Morgendorffer

2/27/99 8:32 AM Woke up to the sound of Quinn whining.Again. The padded walls did little to drown out the sounds of shallowness that radiated from her room.Mom gave me this journal to record my thoughts. She thinks it would be a "good creative outlet for my negitive emotions." So I gave in. So shoot me. That reminds me. Where's my shotgun?

2/27/99 11:00 AM Watched Mystery Science Theater 3000 on the Sci-fi Channel. Quinn stopped by on her way out to the weekly Fashion Club shop-o-rama at Cashman's. She thinks that Mike is "cute but should do something about those robot things" Typical Quinn. I ignored her. BTW the movie was the Projected Man. It's about how this guy gets horribly disfigured in an accident.Jane would have loved it.

2/27/99 1:33 PM I love quotation marks. There I said it. Are you happy now? Went hunting under my bed looking for my slippers ( the bunny ones) and found *gasp* a beanie babie. I'm as shocked as you are. Ha. It must be Quinn's. I never did find the slippers though. Mom and Dad want to go to a movie but we can't decide which one. Quinn wants to see Shakespear in Love (she wouldn't get half the joke anyway) Dad wants to see 8mm (mid-life crisis in the making) Mom wants to see Blast from the Past and I want to stick my head in the ground and suffocate. Family life.

2/27/99 3:29 PM We've decided to see Blast from the Past (Mom won again). I grabbed my box of Girl Scout Thin Mints and the bottle of Pepto Bismol and hopped into the car ready to go... then Mom told me that we weren't leaving for another hour. Damn. I just couldn't wait for the torture to begin.

2/27/99 5:15 PM I am writing this from the too cold theater. The movie started 15 min. ago. So far so good. I haven't strangled Quinn yet.

2/27/99 6:45 PM Suprisingly enough the movie is funnier than I thought. Might have to see it again sometime. Haven't laughed this hard since Silence of the Lambs.

2/27/99 7:30 PM After the movie we stopped off at Books By The Ton. I had twenty bucks hidden in the pocket of my jacket. Lucky me. What did I buy you ask? The latest issue of Fortean Times and a copy of the book Buddy Babylon (don't ask). Quinn bought another bag full of fashion magazines and a little plastic Teletubby. Rev. Falwell would have a field day with Quinn.

2/27/99 11:15 PM Just logged off a chatroom on the Sick Sad World Website. Where else can I talk with fellow oddities without fear of incareration? Well. It's time to say good night. Another boring day. Whee.
