Kayli wants more pony stories.
Further adventures from the ice cream notebook.
Untitled
the Blaton family children camp and are yelled at for being noisy
“Even Barllet their Husky sheep dog who was a Colly”
this might only be funny to dog experts
“The only reason that the house was quiet was that the kids were outside pretending to be cops and some robbers and once in a while a banker or something like that.”
that’s it, Katie, sell it
“Like cool man that’s so cool”
at least my dialogue flows
My last day as a turkey
this promises to be upbeat
“They call me Linky the sweet turkey but I’ll be sour with all that lemon juice though.”
“Oh! My 30 feathers gone to that stupid place called waste.”
his friend Sam the horse helps him escape by tossing him over the fence and then foiling the farmer’s wife’s attempts to ride after him
“I dashed off I could only go a half a mile an hour I’m just naturely slow, so what.”
The flying catfish
blah blah flying catfish, a secret note explaining they only fly once every 100 years
Notable for the use of the abbreviation “T.E.” instead of the words “The End”.
Bigger Than Life
who doesn’t love a giant hamster?
“Once there was a little family of hamsters but one isn’t so ‘little’ because its as big as a dog!”
“Whenever a cat or small dog chased them he scared the cat or small dog away, but if it was a big dog or another big animal all but him ran through the hole in the fence but he couldn’t because he was to big.”
see, now things are looking pretty dark for this hamster, but it turns out he just climbs over the fence
Let Me Tell You About My Dad
this one is in cursive
“He sits around reading the newspaper for an hour and doesn’t wear green on St. Patricks day!”
Make my day!
a story about a girl gang who like to shout the titular phrase at people
“Rebecca, who was very ill tempered automatically shouted make my day so she joined the club. For example [actually "erample", because I had not yet mastered the cursive letter "x"], when she got -11 on a test paper and the teacher said, ‘I’m going to call your home!’ she shouts: ‘Make my day!’ in the teachers facinated face! Then the dumb teacher shouted ‘I’m going to call your house two times now!’”
you have to admit, that’s a pretty dumb teacher
but Amy is the true rebel:
“So she said ‘Make My Day!’ when they wanted her to join there club and kicked everyone in the club. Suzi was stunned.”
Suzi can apparently dish it but not take it.
And that, as the saying goes, is all she wrote.

I love going back through and reading my old writing. It’s hilarious and heartwarming at the same time.
I will admit that you were far better than I at that age. Far, far. ALTHOUGH. I did write a story in 6th grade that was impressive in that it was 90 wahbillion pages long. OK, not that many, but close.

It is kind of heartwarming — I feel a strange affection for the snotty little brat I obviously was.
