Mrs. Appleton came by this morning. She said I'd feel better if I let her give me a makeover. She actually brought nail polish and a paint brush. I told her to go away, and she did.
Dr. Crisp came by later on. He said we could skip my lessons and play basketball, if I wanted. I said for him to go away as well.
Then Mr. Appleton came by with a platter of food. I told him I wasn't hungry. Why did I say that? I'm hungry all the time, even with this new diet!!! But he believed me and he went away. I should have asked him to leave the food.
Illustrator Challenge
Artists can create illustrations of me or the events in my life, as long as they are appropriate for my young readers. Any previous post on this blog can be illustrated. If I like an image that goes well with a post on the blog, I may add a small thumbnail version along with credit to the artist and a link to the full-sized image. Images of me posted elsewhere should link back to the "Giant Girl Rampages" blog.
If you want to draw a picture of me, here's what you need to know:
I'm 15 years old and almost (but not quite) 18 feet tall. Mrs. Appleton says I'm very pretty and well proportioned, which I guess is a complement. I'm not super thin or anything but I think I'm in pretty good shape.
I have dirty blonde hair that's kind of wild because I trim it with Pa's old hedge trimmers. My eyes are green as the ocean, as Ma always said, but I wouldn't know because I've never seen an ocean. My skin is tanned from being out in the sun a lot but not too dark and (usually) not burned.
I wear a blouse and skirt-shorts that my mother quilted for me three years ago. They look like a big patchwork cuz she used many squares of fabric and cowhide. I've grown since then, so the skirt-shorts no longer come down to my knees, my blouse is way tight, and there's a bit of skin showing in between. I don't have any shoes (and that makes me sad to think about so I usually don't).
If you do draw my picture, send the link in a comment so I can post it to my blog. Thanks!!!

<=( It's good to know how you're doing, even if it's not happy. You still posted for us. You can be alone with good friends sometimes, I think. I don't know how it works, it just does. It's a good day to feel down for awhile.
ReplyDelete*sits quietly with Melly*
You always have us, Melly. We'd be glad to keep you happy... especially if it keeps that last dream from coming true! I wouldn't appreciate you wrecking mine or anyone's home.
ReplyDeleteThis is just a "massive" let-down of "epic" proportions. Seems like things have been pretty rough these past few days.
ReplyDeleteHate it when that happens. Well, while you don't have a friend your age to talk to, I've heard from many of my friends that writing out about what's troubling you is a great way to reduce stress.
Your average teenanged girl these days has some sort of diary. We're like a diary...that talks back.
Thanks, guys!!! It's good to be alone with other people.
