Ahoy! I could get into this sailing stuff. We’re whipping along! Man! And I don’t have to be on watch with my dad, so that’s cool. Nobody to bug me except Brian, but he’s easier to ignore than my dad.
Sophie is a riot catching fish. I’ve never seen anyone so happy about something so simple. I thought she was going to puke, though, when she had to kill the first one. She kept saying, “It’s still alive! It’s in pain! It’s hurting!” Then when my dad got the fish cooked, Sophie said she wasn’t hungry.
My dad is on my case big-time. He’s trying to talk me out of doing the juggling thing.
He said, “Don’t you know anything else you could teach?”
I said, “Nope.”
