Today was good. It rained but it was good. Got up kinda early and talked to Alice. Then Mom let me drive her into work. That was my first really long drive (usually about 45 min). I didn't mess up badly at all and I got there in a bit under an hour so that was pretty good I think. Then we went to Styvusant cause my mom had to mail something. I couldn't find Sophies World at teh Book House and that was a minor annoyance. Then it was back home and I read about Michael Collins (like i don't have enough books going alread). Then Alice and I and Rich and Ashley went to the mall. That was fun. Pretty much malled out for one day. Then we went back to Alice's house. Rented a movie and didn't watch it, went for Law and Order reruns instead. Lots of fun. Finally back home to discover that Sylvia had disappeared. But when I went into my room I discovered there was a strange noise under my bed. And behold! Sylvia. She got shut in and she went to the bath room. When people noticed she was missing they yelled for her. Poor Sylvia thought they were yelling at her and she hid. At least that's the best I can figure it. Being a dog she can't tell me much. Then a long talk with Alice. Good times.
