What a change in attitude around here! Sense Bogdanskii and I had our little chat he has been carrying himself with more... Gusto? I think that's the word I want to use. He has been walking around with his head held high and proudly wears a little gold cross around his neck. Found out that was what his Mama sent him for his birthday, which was yesterday. He turned, surprisingly, 28. Anyway... I've been picking up on some.. Uh... Hostility though, Johnny has been getting more and more moody as the weeks go on. When asked any kind of question, he snaps in return... And it doesn't help that Billy Boy keeps agitating him... But whenever Billy walks off... Johnny normally gets this... Somber look on his face. Ugh... Everyone around here seems to be hiding something about their past! Then again... I shouldn't pry into it... If they want to talk they can come find me!
... Why do I feel like I shouldn't have wrote that?
