We had some guy from the college come today and talk about pledging Delta Psi Upsilon, the big fraternity over there. I said I had enough friends without buying any, which was pretty funny, until he said he could tell that wasn't true just looking at me. It would've been okay if my former best friend Henry Page had stuck up for me. Whatever. I have friends! I've got you, anyway.

Today Billy Harrison invited me over to his house after school. He's kind of a strange kid and we've never really been friends, but we've been classmates for like forever, so I went. They had this weird scarlet carpet in every room, and the whole place smelled like boiled arugula. I looked at his collection of model boats and we played a little Silent Steel 9, and then I went home. It was pretty awkward the whole time. I hope he doesn't ask me again.

Mom kept pestering me to muck out the chicken coop while I was playing Space Punk 8 today. I tried to tell her I was in the middle of a boss fight, but she made me do it anyway. She said "Ask a silly question, try, try again." I have no idea what she's talking about when she says stuff like that. Sometimes I wonder if I'm adopted.
