Fight Continues

July 24, 1969 – It’s strange the way people act towards each other. As I said yesterday I wasn’t going to speak to Jeanette but when she poured cold water on the hot frying pan. It really peeved me so I shouted at her.

Then this afternoon I bought 6 do-nuts with my own money. You’d think she’d have enough pride to either refuse it or apologize. but no, she took it and didn’t even say thank-you and I know I’d never take one from her if she’d give up 27 cents of her own money (she’d never do it, though).

I think people, especially girls, are very queer. As you know I’ve been hung-up on Bobby Sherman but suddenly I took a liking (really a loving to David Selby. He plays Quentin Collins on “Dark Shadows’. The thing is I’m in love with Quentin not David (when I say I’m in love I don’t mean in love like the real thing but well “hung-up”!)  I don’t see how all the 16 Magazines can say Quentin is evil and scary because I don’t think he is at all! (Perhaps “love is blind” is true?!)

Also I finished Anne Frank and it was a marvelous book. It flabbergasted me how much she thought and wrote like me!  Especially her writing. It’s almost identical to mine. And all of her hobbies and interests are the same as mine. But then, too, she is a Gemini and so am I; maybe all us Geminis have the same brains!!!

Note:  I am amused at my comments on Anne Frank’s diary but even today I will stand by my opinion that all teenage girls’ diaries sound very similar in tone, angst and familial disputes! And of course, extremely self-centred but isn’t that what a diary is for, to explore one’s inner mind?  Jeanette and I are as close as 2 sisters can be today; we just had a few teen years where we were essentially antagonists - being less than a year apart it makes sense!
