Baloney, baloney, baloney.

I was pretty scared when I woke up in the church that afternoon and saw that Johnny wasn't there, but I was O.K. when I turned over and saw his little message scrawled on the floor. I was pretty excited when Johnny came back with his bags, but I was ecstatic when I pulled out a paperback copy of Gone With The Wind! I began to anxiously search through the bags looking for anything else that could make my day, but then I started to notice the things that he bought. When he told me that we were going to cut our hair I freaked out. There was no way that going to let my tuff hair get cut out for no reason! But after Johnny had explained it very thoroughly to me, I was ready to do it.
We were able to get over our hair (a little), but the thing that was worse than that (only by a tiny bit) was the next five days. Five whole days of doing nothing but reading Gone With The Wind, playing cards, smoking, and eating baloney sandwiches will really take something out of you. On the fifth day while I was sleeping off all of the smoke that I had inhaled I was awoken to find Dally with us! He gave me a letter from Soda, told us about what's going on back home and how the police are off to Texas looking for us, and then he took us to Dairy Queen where we gorged on burgers and banana splits.
