Actually, this was my entry, but I changed my name to that of one of my characters. I own this one, people.
Entry #5- Liatris Liguilistylus
I was allowed to write in this journal, too. I can because I'm such a smart person. I'm just kidding. There are plenty of people who are a lot smarter than I am, but my guests found that a little hard to believe until I introduced them to my sister. I think they were a little confused because we're girls. After all, girls in their time aren't educated as far as we are.
I showed each of them something I thought they would like to see. No one liked the car much. I could tell that Jim "took a fancy to it" because he looked at it like a little kid looking at a big piece of candy. I think the other guys just thought it smelled really bad.
I enjoyed their company while I had it. I thought it was fun to show them how much the world has progressed. Some things got better, such as medicine. Other things got worse, such as pollution. I read to them about pollution from things I found on the Internet. They didn't like the sound of it, but I don't think they completely understood.
It's hard for me to remember that not as much was known in detail in their time. It was funny to watch their reactions to some things. Mr. Trelawney's face lit up when I showed him the fridge. Captain Smollett made the most disgusted face I've seen in a long time when I showed him the car, but his eyes twinkled like a little boy's when I showed him the book of ships. Doctor Livesey's jaw dropped when we watched T.V. Jim had a fit of hysteria when I tried to show him how to dance. I think he was amused because I probably looked ridiculous to him.
I sent them back home this morning. All they had to do was stand right where they landed and look up. Then they were gone. I was happy for them, but I was a little sad to see them go. They told me they probably wouldn't be back for a long while. I can't blame them. I wouldn't want to go to their time for days on end, go home for a few days, and then go back and visit. Also, someone would notice their absence, and that could be bad if the wrong person found their time machine. They'll come see me again some other time, and I wonder what else I'll have a chance to show them then.
