I don&#8217;t know why and after I had asked her I wished I hadn&#8217;t. <a href=\"http:\/\/brooksidepress.org\/cartmell\/people\/steve-hempelman\/\">Steve<\/a> had a date with Wilma. I didn&#8217;t touch Mary once and thats the truth you can verify that from Steve. She really disgusted me very much by the way she acted. I had to tell you this and I hope you will forgive me. Will you? You know I love you more than anyone else.<\/p>\n<p>I am glad last week is over I never did have a week go as bad as it did. I finally finished my fourth unknown in Chem. but I had to work on it all Fri. afternoon. I am afraid I messed it up.
