Saturday August 20th

10:00am

I was just about to get dressed when the phone rang.

I said, "Is there really no one else in this house?" Maybe someone would hear me, or the phone.

I wonder where everyone has been, I've barely seen them for two days, and I've been living off jammy dodges, that can't be healthy…

On the phone

I said, "Hello, this is Georgia Nicolson, the only person who seems to actually live in this house."

Dave said, "Hello, sexy kitty."

I felt that attack of laughter when you know you need to stop but you can't, like in the middle of a test and you look next to you and you see Rosie stroking her beard, and the teacher who's watching over your class because your other teacher is out is someone like Hawkeye or someone equally as scary and then you get double detention and a zero on your final. But it wasn't even like a he's funny laughter, it was more of an I'm nervous and jelloidy laughter. Like how I used to feel about Robbie.

Oh God, I hadn't said anything for 2 minutes.

Dave said, "Georgia?"

I said, "Hahaha, yeah I'm here….hahahaha."

"What's so funny?"

"Egyptians!...hahahahaha"

"Erm…I bet they are…-"

"Did you know they didn't wear PANTS? Hahahahaha…"

"Gee, breathe. Look, I was wondering if I could borrow some more of your hair remover. My leg hair is starting to grow back with a vengeance."

I took a deep breath, "Sure, how about around 9?"

"Perfect, see you then."

I put on my wig, a pair of jeans, and a plain red shirt.

Kitchen

Another attempt to fight off scurvy.

I found something yellow in the fridge, it looked like a cucumber. I didn't know they could turn yellow…could they?

One minute later

Maybe it's squash.

Two minutes later

Half a squash. I was cutting it up and by the time I was done Angus had eaten half of it.

Looked through the fridge some more

5 minutes later

Heating up pizza. It's probably from last night, I came back pretty late.

At the table

There was a note. It said,

Dear Georgia,

We tried to say goodbye this morning, but you barely woke up. Your father has gone to a conference for a week, and I'm going on a retreat with the girls from aerobics. Your sister is staying with Uncle Eddie, I talked to Jas' mum, but they are going on vacation tomorrow, so I arranged for you to stay at Rosie's until we get back. We'll call later.

Love,

Mum and Dad

I was officially an orphan; at least Rosie wouldn't give me a hard time if I messed up her owls. Well, she doesn't have any owls to mess up during the night, and her parents are rarely even home.

In my room

Packed my boy-ey clothes, and my Telletubie jimjams. I also decided to grab a few of mutti's boy books; she won't be back for a week, so she won't have to miss them.

20 minutes later

Decided to waste time by eating more pizza, and watching TV.

15 minutes later

Door bell rang.

Dave was wearing a really short skirt, and a halter top.

In my bathroom

Dave was applying the hair removal cream.

I decided to check my legs.

2 minutes later

Erlack a pongoes. I looked like a yeti.

I reached for the cream, but Dave moved it away.

Dave said, "Nope."

I said, "What?"

He laughed, "Guys don't shave their legs, Gee."

My eyes felt like they were going to pop out they went so wide, and my mouth was opening and closing like a goldfish. I could be a goldfish yeti. Very sexy.

"But what about my eyebro-"

"That too."

"And my armpi-"

"No."

"But I've told you! I'll end up looking like a werewolf! All I have to do is crawl around and I could be casted into that movie Breaking New Eclipse!"

"Gee, I think it's just Ecli-"

"Drop it."

Dave started to rub the cream off, "Why's this stuff burning?"

I slapped his hand away, "Like I've said before, girls go through a lot just to look good."

He cringed.

"Would you rather date a ball of fur, or someone really smooth…ish?"

"Well, depends on who's under the fur, if it's someone as beautiful as you, then I think I know what I'd choose."

I started to smile but then gripped my stomach and ran downstairs.

Why couldn't we have two bathrooms? I'm not sure. So I'm opted for the next best thing that you would use to vom in, the dustbin.

Dave was right behind, rubbing my back soothingly.

After I emptied my stomach contents, he brought me over to the couch.

He looked really concerned, and felt my forehead, "what have you eaten today, Gee?"

"Some squash, and a couple slices of pizza."

"Do the squash look fresh?"

"Yeah, I mean it had some hair on it, but it's kind of like strawberries, you know? Those tiny fuzzy hairs, and what not."

"Gee, squashes don't have hair."

"Oh God…"'

"What about the pizza? Do you know how fresh that was?"

"I think from last night, I mean I got home pretty late, so I guess my parents just had pizza."

"Aside from that, when was the last time you and your family had pizza?"

"I think two Fridays ago, why?"

He was in the kitchen, checking the pizza box, "This pizza was from then."

I held my head, "Ughh…"

"How about you go back upstairs, and I'll get you something to drink?"

"I can't, I have to go over Rosie's…my parents are gone for the week and I'm staying at her house."

"Well where's your stuff?"

"Upstairs…"

I decided to lie down on the couch for a few minutes.

12:00pm

I woke up in Rosie's room.

There were furry arts and crafts everywhere on the wall.

I looked to the left and Dave the Laugh was reading Rosie's diary, and sitting on a beanbag chair, covered in pink fur, of course.

I said, "What happened?"

He came over and sat next to me on the bed, "I went to get your stuff, and you fell asleep on the couch, so I called Rosie and her and Sven came over and got your stuff, and I carried you to her house."

I smiled, "Aw…thanks, Dave. That's really nice."

"Everyone else is downstairs watching a movie; do you want to come down?"

I was still smiling like an idiot, "Yeah, definitely."

I stood up, but he still put his arm around me for support, which made it sort of difficult going down the stairs, because we both kept running into the wall, but we managed to make it to the living room with minor injuries.

They had just started watching Rom and Jul.

Sven was wearing furry tights. He ran over, and hugged me. I jumped.

I laughed, "Your furry tights are rather startling."
