4/12/87 Dear Diary:


Tuesday I went out with Penny, Juel, Michelle and Billy. Bill was having a party and said I HAD to go so I figured why not? I got there and was pretty trashed and saw some guys playing quarters. One guy had his back to me and he turned around and it was Lewis! I pulled a WOODY! We got into some very nice “nuclear warfare” discussions. (Sure, vampire) Wed we had our first dress rehearsal for the Play and LeeAnn had a pre cast party. We were all playing quarters, thumpers and questions. JT and I were being snuggly but then he freaked out on me. Thur I went to Lexington to David’s apartment. Jimmy M, Effie, me and a cute boy named John (of course) came back to Bardstown at 3am. Effie and I decide to take a road trip to Springfield and she writes a note as I dictate. Friday Mike, John Ed and I go to Key Club convention. It was a BLAST! I missed most of the meetings and partied with a lot of Bardstown High people. At 2am I was going to my room when a guy grabbed me that I had met earlier from Frankfort so I hung out with them until 4.



4/5/87 Dear Diary:


Well, John T never did talk to me at school. Lisa McCoy got married on Friday and I got trashed at the reception. In addition, I also fought with JT, got set up with Jerry Mouser by a State Trooper (Les King), partied at Holiday Inn, and attacked by JMS. Just your normal night. JT and I are back on normal friends terms now and he’s coming over for dinner on Wed. Oh yeah-Glenn Koger and I chased each other last night in town.



3/31/87 Dear Diary:


No way were we out of school yesterday due to snow. We had the biggest blizzard. John T wrote a note saying we had to talk. Today we worked on the set for the play for 5 hours and he never said anything. John S called tonight to ask why I seemed sad. No way were we discussing me and John T…weird.



3/29/87 Dear Diary:


Prom was incredible! The limo got us around 5. The driver was William and he was cool as anything. We stopped everywhere for pictures. We drank tons of champagne and ate at The Mansion. John T kissed me in the limo and we were being  super snuggly. Lee Ann Ritchie had an after prom party and we were really late getting there. No comment. We went to Janices and Bills prom breakfasts. Went to Springfield around 4am and home about 7. It was more than I ever imagined.



3/22/87 Dear Diary:


Well Bon Jovi was all that – sort of. Considering I only heard two songs. Yes, Holland was passed out cold. We drank a ton driving up as we were playing chase with Chad F. Jerry Mouser is the biggest cutie. We almost hooked up and John T and I were being cute together. Too bad I’m ½ was dying over him.  I ran into Anthony, ooops. I crawled in to Amy’s at 4:30 this morning, Jerry gave me a ride. Today I went to Bernheim with Mickey and just chilled out. Jean and I went and saw Some Kind of Wonderful. Yes, the story of my life. I cannot wait for prom.



3/12/87 Dear Diary:


Well I am now on crutches (again) for my foot. We’re practicing every day for the play. Quit being nice John, you’re screwing my poor warped mind. Drew is the biggest QT in the play.



3/9/87 Dear Diary:


Why does John S have to mess with my mind? He and Sally are soooo tight so I wish he’d leave me alone. Sure stare the whole practice – I’m confused. My parents also win the Woody of the Year award. I’m blowing JT off and he’s getting pissed, oh darn. Joe is being sweet lately – Tom too.



3/8/87 Dear Diary:


Last night we went to the final district games. Felicia drove and it was Kim, Shandra, Michelle, Tom, Larry, Joe, MT, Dan and me. Wrestled with the hulkster at Haybales forever. I have nice bruises and another fractured foot. Jean wanted me to go to Springfield because JT’s parents were out of town but I was spending the night with Kim. Sure she was with JT as she rags on Chris for even talking to another girl. (Yes, you detect jealousy)



2/26/87 Dear Diary:


FREE AT LAST! I cannot believe I made it. JT and I are both hype. Play rehearsals started today and are going to be a Bitch! Today Kim and I had THE talk and I feel much better.



2/24/87 Dear Diary:


Well John T, John S, Nancy Simms, Brett, Colette and I are all tripling definitely for prom. I got my dress and it is georgeous. By the way, my family can go to hell. All this talk the past 30 days about them caring is bogus and bullshit. 2 days and I’m out of this hell hole.
