Saturday, September 29th, 12:57 PM. I had invited the club over just to chill. They were supposed to arrive at one, but Melody, Maria and Hannah were already here. You see, Elizabeth just bought THE BEST nail polish colors for me. Currently Hannah was trying "Pink Gleam" and Melody, "Fiery Red." Red nail polish is hot, it said in one of my magazines.
Jen's mom pulled up to the curb. Remember, she's the person who only owns dress up things? Yeah, pretty weird. "Ta-ta, Jennifer. I shall bring Andrea to play rehearsal and be back at four, sharp." Jen hopped out, in trendily ripped jeans and an Abercrombie and Fitch hoodie-thing. Who came up with tat term, anyway?
"Ta-ta, Mother," Jen grumbled, her back to her mom so she could not see her roll her eyes.
Jen was looking at my new issue of Cosmo Girl (I read magazines outside and forget to put them back), when Suzi, Claire and Margo pulled up, Vanessa Pike in the driver's seat.
"See ya later!" Vanessa zoomed off. I sent her a skeptical look, and then mouthed to Margo, "What the hell?"
Margo just shook her head. "So, people, we've got to talk about the club." I said rather loudly.
"Uh, why?" Melody asked, blowing on her nails. "I mean, our club is—well, we're getting jobs."
"Well---to promote the club. Get publicity, make ourselves well known, you know."
Hannah asked, "Uh….do you know what kind of things Kristy did?" Just as she said that Nancy got out of her mom's Volvo. Her hair was wet and straight. She probably just got out of the shower. Actually, she probably just woke up.
"I asked her," I said. Then I listed from memory, "Playground Camp, Summer Camp, St. Patrick's Day Parade, yeah….."
"Okay, I get the point," Nancy exclaimed, sitting down right by the pink nail polish. We eyed each other (fake) warily, and then burst into laughter. "We should do a party or something," she eventually managed to say.
"Well," Margo spoke up, "It's October soon, and…."
"Costume party!" Hannah suddenly cried. "We'll hold it the 20th, a Saturday, the weekend before Halloween. All the kids can dress up. It will be great."
I gasped. "Holy crap! You sound so much like Kristy it's scary!"
Jen went, "I guess," even though she doesn't even remember Kristy, she was so young. O-kay.
"Let's have officers," an idea suddenly slammed into my face, if you know what I mean. "Hannah, I promote you to president even though it was my idea, the club. You have great ideas, anyway."
Hannah gave this totally true grin. "Fine, be that way!" she cried in a triumphant/happy tone. "You are vice president, though the ideas are mine."
I rolled my eyes good naturedly (weird….) "Drr, loser. Um, well, Jen, Claire and Suzi are obviously our junior members. Let's go by Kristy's officers—Melody's handwriting is best, thus, hello secretary. Maria-you're the treasurer. Margo and Nancy can both be alternate officers, I guess. Any questions?"
"Will you shut up?" Hannah laughed. "Honestly, you haven't given anyone a chance to speak!"
The others booed at me. I just laughed at them for being so retarded.
