J.A.M.

Chapter 18
Entry 55
Operation Benji was a success!!!!!!! The BBQ was a success also. We had plenty of things to do for the adults and the kids. We had a block wide scavenger hunt. We paired off with each other which was the perfect way to get Rob and Benji alone together. All the items on the lists were limited to stuff we could find around the yards of each other. Mine and Phillip’s list included a football, garden gnome, chew toy, and a croquet ball. It didn’t take long for us tom find the items either. The gnome was in auntie Joh’s yard, the football was in Seamus’ yard. Phillip had a croquet set in his back yard and the chew toy was easy to find I my own back yard. The last team to come back was Benji and Rob. Their faces were a little red and I swear they we trying to hard to cover up their necks. Dr. Hawk was amused by this as was auntie Joh. When we asked what took them so long they just said they were getting to know each other. Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you about the food. It was awesome. The dads started off by grilling some bratwurst and hot dogs. While those kept everyone at bay they put some ribs and chicken on the grill slathered with barbecue sauce. Auntie Joh had brought some baked beans, while Doc brought some awesome coleslaw. I don’t know how any of us kids aren’t fat from all the great food that our parents make, its totally amazing. After everybody had gotten their fill of the food the dads sprung a surprise on us and brought out a projector and screen and we all sat down and started watching a movie. The only sad spot to the day was that Wesley couldn’t come.
Entry 56
OK so something weird happened today. Melvin Chambers called to talk to me. He wanted to apologize for being such an ass to me and everyone else in our group. He said he had a long talk with Wesley and it made him realize just what a dick he was. He said he had some issues at home and he was taking it out on anybody else. I told him that he was welcome to talk to me anytime he felt like it. It was kind of nice being able to talk to him without him being a total dick. I think maybe we should invite Melvin to the GSA meetings that way he could get to know us even better. It couldn’t hurt, at least I don’t think it would. I talked to Phillip about it and he thought it might be a good idea, so I’ll invite him tomorrow. With it being Sunday, we had a lazy day without doing anything. We spent an hour walking Leah around the town and to the park where we tried to teach her to fetch. She doesn’t have the concept down completely, meaning she will go after it but she won’t bring it back, or give it up for that matter. We are planning on taking her to the groomer this week. Just a little trim and maybe paint her toenails. I just want to glam her up a bit. Phillip thinks I’m going overboard, but she’s my baby I can’t help it. She’s just so damn cute. Well, tomorrow is a big day, it’s Wesley’s mom’s funeral, and he asked if I could be there. I’m glad that he considers me a good enough friend to be there. I think it’s because I know what it’s like to lose a parent, so I could help him through it. I really hope I can.
also any and all comments are welcome
