This marks the first of three weeks that me and the other kids spent at summer camp, and also introduces cute girl Gretchen Theune. Co7G is rapidly dwindling to an end, and will end when the last day of Camp ended.

Uncle Robby came back to pick up Adam, and Brian rented Command & Conquer today.
July 19, 1999 (Monday)
Today was the first day of summer camp. Marie was dropped off right when it started, but Mom had to take me and Brian to the eyeglass place. When we got back, Corinne’s like, “I was just about to call the air force in five seconds.”
Things didn’t start off as badly as they had last year. Anna was here, and so was this other girl named Gretchen. Even though Gretchen doesn’t wear braces, she does wear a headband and is still cute. She’d definitely look good with a big cone-shaped nose.
Brian said something about Pokemon cards, and Anna asked him if he could bring his. The rest of Group E also agreed to bring theirs to share with one another.
On the way home, we had to stop at the dentist. While I was in the waiting room, I looked through some magazine, and took out those paper cards inside. On the blank lines, I wrote the names of everyone who would be in Snowboard Kids 3. When we left, I showed them to Brian, and he’s like “Nuts is gonna snowboard?” Marie had a look at them, and then asked how a baby would go snowboarding. Brian’s like “How does Tommy get out of his crib with a screwdriver?” The next thing Brian noticed was Ganondorf’s name, and he’s like “Ganondorf is going snowboarding?”
We stopped at the library, but when we left, I asked Mom if I should bring them to camp tomorrow, so that I might start a conversation with someone. Mom suggested that I don’t, because it’s kinda silly.

Today was the summer camp carnival. I had a total of three containers of juice while it was going on.
While the little kids were playing games, I ended up in the same booth with Anna. For prizes, I gave out twizzlers to most winners except for every fifth, who I would give something different. When we started running out of twizzlers, I started giving them pencils.
Tonight, I started making a list of 5th, 6th, and 7th graders who would look good in big, coneshaped noses. While I was making a list, I looked all over the house for an erasable pen, but Dad told me to just go to sleep. I got into an argument with him, and he lifted up his alarm clock and said “Do you see what time it is?” I continued to ask the same question, and then he got up, and then I ran back into my room. Instead of coming after me, though, he shouted “I don’t have to explain to you!!!” I then shouted back to him that I’m not gonna talk to him tomorrow morning. “FINE!”, he shouted back.
July 24, 1999 (Saturday)
After a short argument with Mom and Dad this morning, I went back to bed, but then Mom came into my room told me to move some pine straw before it gets hot. I went out there, but while I was putting the straw into the wheelbarrow, I felt something with the pitchfork. It turned out to be a slab of wood, and I put it to the side.
After I finished, I asked Dad why, after the Civil War, the South wanted nothing to do with the North. He explained why to me, and he also said that that argument we had last night is nothing like the Civil War.
Later, when we were driving home from the beach, Dad continued to explain why the North and South were still enemies. He went on about how the North decided to punish the South further after the war ended, how they went around taking all the crops that plantation owners grew so that they would have no food for the winter, and all that kind of stuff.
“So if you took a sledgehammer and smashed up my Nintendo—“ I asked
“Then you would have a good reason to be mad at me,” he answered.
Back to the present.
I've completed Super Mario RPG yesterday, so I won't be playing anything for today or the following three days. Instead, I will be doing the exercises that I skipped in Japanese in Mangaland volumes 2 and 3.
Mom took me and Marie to the beach yesterday afternoon. She was unable to find her bikini top, and I was unable to find my sandals. She had to go into the water with her blouse on, and I could see her bra through it. The waves were much calmer than they were the previous several visits.
Coming home, Mom noticed a round white rock on the sand, and I decided to take it home. Mom suggested I put it in her garden when we got home, and I did.
