ARGH people!

Jen- Nice to see you've come back to us. That concert is still 3 hours away. So I probably won't be able to go.

Thomas- I won't be home for Emily's party because my best friend from school's grad/b-day party is July 2nd and it is way closer to here. Plus I already promised when we left school. So I'll be home either July 30 until I leave again for Chucktown, or I might come home one more weekend, that it yet to be known. If so it would be July 8 or July 15.

I'm trying to write a damn story on straight-edgers and they're all being bitches to me. They don't want "the media to portray them as bad" or "make an already underground culture worse." I'll tell you what, if they don't cooperate I will write the story with what I have from people who WILL help. And IT WILL make them look bad because I will not hesitate to include that more than just a few responded with rude e-mails and refused comment. That looks like they've got something to hide! I just don't get it. How can a group of people who don't drink/smoke/have sex before marriage be so bad that people hate them? Unless they do something that otherwise makes them look bad AKA whatever they're trying to hide. They act like they're so much better (not all of them trust me, just about half of the ones I've talked to if not more). From what I know about the lifestyle itself, there shouldn't be anything to hide, and I'd want more people to know what we do. And Jon, I donno if you read this, but no offense to your brother. Anyway. They'll be sorry! Because I won't be trying to make them look bad, they will be doing it themselves. I am infuriated and confused, and quite aghast that they freaking YELLED at me in their e-mails! "YOU MAINSTREAMERS CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND!!!" Fuck that.

P.S. I'm covering a pig costume contest today at Henry County Fair haha.
