Girls Day Out
This morning I picked up an episode of the Parthenon and was shocked to see a story about Beth's ex-boyfriend (the sicko that killed her and turned her into a zombie, be it by accident) being arrested by police on multiple counts of kidnapping and murder. The soonest chance I got I informed Mr. Harris and Ramone about this development, and Mr. Harris suggested that Heather and I try to find a way to distract Beth from local media until he, Ramone, Mitran, and Dwayne investigate the matter fuller. Although I didn't like the idea of lying to Beth, I knew that her hatred runs so deep that if she found out about yesterday's arrest before we were able to break it to her gently, well, I think the county jail would have some major problems on their hands and people might get hurt.
I had to go to class, but before I left I overheard Dwayne talking over the phone to some police friends he knew to arrange a meeting with the sleazball. I think Ramone was planning a sort of truth spell to throw at him. Man, Ramone can do some really awesome stuff. First levatating things with his mind, next binding spirits into leotards, now making truth spells, what can't he do? I have the coolest boyfr...err, well, I'm not really sure what we are right now. I'm hoping that will change. I'm thinking I might ask Ramone if he'd like to come out to the country club with me and we could excercice Betty and Tax Evasion, my two horses. Betty was my first horse. She's getting on in years, but she's still in great shape and really docile. I got Tax Evasion last year. He was a horrible race horse, never won a single race in his career, but I think he's really fast and that's all that matters. When Dad heard that they were going to send him off to a dog meat factory he couldn't bare it and bought him straight from the owner for under $20,000. He's kinda spunky, but very fun to ride and has never thrown me off yet.
After class I rounded up Heather and Beth and invited them both for a girls night out on the Kanawa River. They both really got a kick out of the idea so we packed a picnic and I towed the cabin cruiser out of the boat storage. The rest of the evening went very well. Beth wasn't very hungry as usual, but Heather really liked the tunafish sandwiches that I made. I hope beth doesn't find out about what's going on until Mr. Harris can find information about it. I guess I'll just have to wait till tomorrow to see if the rest of the gang's investigations pan out.
