I’m hungry, but I going to wait for her before I eat.”We found Sue at the swimming pool chasing girls out so that we could close down officially. ...Some girls would move in with us if we would let them just so they could have unlimited use of the pool. Was it women in general or just those girls in particular who loved so much to be naked in the pool? Sue was really pissed off by the time the last girl left for home.She was so pissed off that I would not let her drive without me along. Of course,. "Ugh, boys are theworst!"
