Shop where I got a bunny rabbit. I named him/or her "Harold."
We brought him home. In the mail I got a letter from Stacy. He
said he might be over this weekend, but I haven't heard from

says to make an appointment & come in some time. By golly,
I will! Dad flew to Missouri. I talked to S.D. I watched my hunk
on Chips. I viewed a repeat of B.J. Talked to SD. Dad came home

hi: 85, low: 60
I went to Jacksonville Illinois with Ma, Aunt Dot, & Judy
for that craft camp. I made me, Stacy & Steve bracelets,
me a key chain, & moccasins. It was pretty fun. I almost
enjoyed it! We got home around 7:30. I watched television. Stacey
called, Rosanne called. It should be neat to talk to Mr. Weatherford
tomarrow. I'm also gonna talk to my counselor to see about this
ICC business! I hope I can start that next year! That way, by
the time I'm done with HS, I'll be done with college too!
Wednesday June 6, 1979 (called
Buster!)

in a dull mood lately. And you know what else? I'm getting sick
of this dumb diary! I want to remember what I've done, but I
hate writing it down!
I want to say a prayer for Snook:
Father, please help my kitty. He's such a sweet animal. He's
very sick and doesn't deserve to be. Please, Lord, let him live!
Thank-you. Amen
I'm working on my zitty face, and flabby gut, and boring hard
to get along with personality. Maybe by the time I see Mark,
I'll be good. I need to lose 20 pounds! HELP!

I read some of a book "S" is letting me borrow by Rosemary
Rodgers called The Crowd Pleasers. It's pretty good. Watched
the Muppets on 60 Minutes, Part of the Hindenburg, Greg Evigan

It's funny!

a box, and it kept us awake.We ended up moving
it into their library.
Thursday June 14, 1979
hi: 86, lo: 62
I woke up at 7:30, then went back to sleep until 9:40. I called
Uncle Art to try to catch Ma up there, but she wasn't. So, I
packed up my belongings and returned home. She had left a note
that said to meet at Aunt Dot's at 11:30. So, I washed my hair
and drove to A.D.'s. Ma gave me my mail. I got a note from stinkin'
Stacy. He says he can't write often cause he has so many friends
to write to! I HAVE 20, count them 20 pen-pals, damn him!

dammit! I'm 10 pounds overweight, but I want to lose 20! I'll
just have to keep working on it, I guess! My face is clearing
up a bit. By the time I get to Chattanooga, Prunella will probably
be here, and I'll be so gross!
Friday June 15, 1979
hi: 90, lo: 67
Ma woke me up early by flapping my window shades. I fed Booger

deviled eggs, and watched the story. Me & Ma went to the
Mossville dairy bar & got an ice cream cone. I sat out and
got a tan. Came in and washed up. Toured a research center with
Ma & Pa. On the way home, a guy yelled to us, "Hey,

home. Watched Steve Martin on The Tonight Show. He's a riot!
Saturday June 16, 1979

Friday June 22, 1979
hi: 85 lo: 66
Got up. Sat around. Washed. Watched story. Left mom a note.
Went to Stacey's. Her mom brought us to the local supermarket
where we got chow for later on. We compared diaries, played frisbee,
volleyball. Waited for Shelly and Holley to get there. They did.
We all sat on the curb and waited for Vicki to get there. She
did. We roasted weinies, had corn on the cob, cake and ice cream.
After supper, we played volley-ball. Me, Stacey, and her dad
beat their team. We had a water baloon fight with 2 neighborhood
boys. It was pretty fun. We came inside and watched a bit of
"The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming"
and played a neat card game called Uno. We went out to the tent
for awhile but got scared and came in and watched part of a movie
with Erik, my hunk, in it called "The New Centuraians."
But they didn't want to stay in to see the whole thing, so I
asked stacey to record it for me. We went back out to the tent
and laid around and told stupid jokes and just acted stupid in
general. Then everyone fell asleep, but I don't think I did!
All in all, it was a pretty fun day. I'm typing this on June
23rd, cause I couldn't very well do this over at Space's in front
of everyone last night!
Saturday June 23, 1979
 hi: 69

movie. Slept for a couple hours. Watched the news, the Gong Show,
Chips. Sat in my bedroom amongst the debree. Made popcorn and
pigged out. Stacey called and we talked for awhile. I brushed
the little sweaters off of my teeth. Then, I proceeded to wash
my zitty face. I am now sprawled out on the living room floor
waiting for the 31 Late Movie "The Curse of Frankenstein."
Saturday Night Live is a repeat. Here's a comic out of today's
newspaper that I thought was pretty funny.
Sunday June 24, 1979
hi: 75 lo: 48
Went up and got Stacey. We went shopping. I got a set of Uno

Monday June 25, 1979
hi: 79 lo: 49
Woke up around 9. Helped Ma with chores. We went up and ate
at Long John Silver's. I love that place! Yummy! I watched Days
of our Lives. It was exciting today. I brushed my teeth and egged
my face. I watched MASH. Booger chewed on my foot. I love men!
I want Buster! I watched Dinah where some guy discussed sex.
According to him, I've had sex before! He says holding hands,
kissing, anything that arouses some strong emotion, can be considered
as sex! Wow! I'm filthy! Batman was on The McCoys. Prunella
hasn't arrived yet. I ate supper. I washed my face. I watched
the news. SD called. I'm sick of her for reasons too various
& complicated to list in today's entry. Maybe tomarrow. Watched
Lil' House on the Prairie, Mash while playing Mike Uno. Watched
a repeat of WKRP. Made some popcorn. Kinda watched Lou Grant.
Am now watching news, will then proceed to view The Dating Game.
Tuesday June 26, 1979
hi: 84 lo: 53
(I've gone to another diary. For the continuing story of my
life, please read the sequel "The Stinkiest diary ever Written"
refer to Anything Book #0-517-271478)
I was getting tired of writing real small and with little
detail in my Snoopy diary, so I got this one so I can write as
much as I want!
Mom woke me up around 8:30 so we could go underwear shopping.
I washed my face and hair. Then we met Aunt Dorothy at the mall.
At Monkey Wards, I got undies for me and a card for Buster. I
went to the Book Market and got 2 of these diary things. We stopped
at Dipper Dan's and I did something I shouldn't have! I had a
Sprite and a Hot Fudge Banana Suprise. From there, we came back
home. I didn't get any mail. I came inside, and am now writing
this!
I'm waiting for our story to start. Yesterday, Laura hung herself,
and we left her just hanging there! I watched the story. She
is really wacko!!!
Now that I have this kind of diary. I can tell you what I wanted
to last night about Stacey. Well, for one thing, she has her
beedy little eyes on my brother, not because she likes him, but
simply because she wants a boyfriend. She would delight in using
him to make me jealous! I, myself, would like to see Mike find
a girlfriend that would truly like him, and also, I don't
like her snotty attitude!
2:20 PM - I went out into the hot beating sun and fought
the battle of the drying spots as I attempted to wash and chamois
off my beautiful car. Mike did his at the same time. I came inside
and took a tea break. While Mom was doing the dishes, the cat
was jumping up and down in it's box meowing. Mom threw water
on it, and now it's hilarious looking! I watched M*A*S*H. 3:10-
PM- I picked up some stuff in my room, but it's still a bit
cluttered. I am watching Captain Stinks and Salty Ham. They said
hi to Chad Fidler who is 4 years old and that he wants his grandpa
Gene McCleary to call. Who the hell is he?
A guy from "Alien" was on Dinah and they talked about
the movie. Do you believe that I lived through the scariest movie
out today?!
5:20 PM- We ate supper. Next, I brushed my teeth and washed
my face (this is so exciting!). I did a bunch of exercises to
help me lose weight.
I watched the news. There's no good news anymore at all! First
the snow, the cold, the flood. Now gas shortage, trucker's strike.
Oh, I forgot the famed 3 mile island incident! The world is coming
to an end!! 8:00 PM -I helped Dad in the garage with Harold's
cage. In my room, I watched 3's Company. It was hilarious! When
SD called, I had people tell her I was at my grandma's spending
the night. Do you believe I've wasted about 4 pages on nothing!?
10:07 PM - I helped Mom with some homemade potatoe chips.
Basically, she made them, and I ate them!! Watched
the 10 o'clock news. I hope this gas shortage doesn't ruin my
chance to see Buster this summer. I am absolutely dying to see
him!
Well, I guess now I am going to watch the Dating Game, then I'll
go to bed. Hey, this eligible bachelor is a disc jockey! But
he's ugly. Oh well, they can't all be as fortunate as Buster!
Wednesday June 27, 1979
hi: 78 lo: 60
I woke up about 9. I watched my usual shows. Mrs. McCready
came over and talked both of Mom's arms and legs off. She's full
of bull! I ate a sloppy joe. Then, I brushed my teeth, washed
my face and hair. I watched my story, Days of our Lives. After
that, I picked up stuff in my room so it looks less cluttered.
I called Cindy, my hair lady's, new hair place and made an appointment
to get my head trimmed Saturday at 10. I rode my bike for 1 1/2
miles. Stacey called and talked at me for a few minutes. Then
the guy from Cohen's came with our sofa/sleeper. I laid on it
for awhile. Some high pressure sales person came and pushed an
album at me. I didn't even want it, so how did I get talked into
buying it? I then viewed Gilligan's Island.
Dad came home with a friend who had car troubles. They fixed
that. It rained long enough to create water spots on my car,
that of which I carefully washed yesterday. I ate chicken and
corn for supper. I watched Robin Williams on Laugh Inn. The guy's
riot! Watched some other shows. Stacey called and as per usual,
talked my ear off!!
I had a beautiful dream about Buster and me last night. I hope
I dream the sequel tonight!
I don't think I will get my hair trimmed this weekend. Then
again, maybe I will! Then again, it's too short already! Oh well,
we'll have to just wait and see!
I can't wait to see Buster! I'm dying! I want to just ride around
and talk to him about everything. Maybe he'll take me into his
apartment this time & we can sit & talk.
Thursday June 28, 1979
hi: 85 lo: 58
Mom woke me up early. Me, her, and Aunt Dot went to see Steve
and Judy's house. We ate at some greasy place in Flanagan. We
didn't get home till around 3.
I talked to Stacey on the horn and asked her to stay all night.
She came over around 6:30. We played Uno and Pay Day. We walked
down to the store and got chips, milk, and butter. We caught
lightening bugs. We played a very short game of Pay Day with
Mike. We watched the Dating Game, and Starsky and Hutch. We went
to sleep.
Friday June 29, 1979
hi: 81 low: 66
Today was the pits! Prunella came while I was asleep. She
did her best to get rid of me, but I put up a fight. We took
SD home. We were gonna go shopping, but I got sicker and sicker!
So we came home and I barfed and died in pain! Bob came over.
They're going to repossess his trailer, and he and family may
end up living here. I watched Captain Jinks and Gilligan. I ate
a few pieces of toast. I watched the news. I hate being
a female! Guys don't have any of these problems! I laid on the
sofa-sleeper and I viewed Different Strokes, Welcome Back Kotter.
Right now, I'm watching a movie called Love Trap. As soon as
this is over, I'm going to bed. I don't feel too swell!
Saturday June 30, 1979
hi: 84 low: 61
Me and Ma went to Venture. We got film, I got the single "Is
she Really Going Out with him?" I also got a couple magazines.
We got groceries at Kroger. Dad finished the rabbit cage this
morning. Harold really loves it. News flash: I'm looking forward
to vacation!! It should be pretty fun this year, if I don't die
from nerves on the way to Tennessee! I spent the night with Stacey.
We goofed off. Played Bill Cosby records, volley ball, etc. Watched
my hunk, Erik, on Chips.
Stay tuned for July 1979:
- --President Carter says a recession
is likely
- --Parents call off trip to see Buster,
and I plot an adventure
- --Summer vacation trip
- --Sky Lab crashes to earth
- --I date a Southern boy
