Sunday, October 16th Dear Mud, I’ve decided to start keeping a diary, so that when I become a famous writer/actress/chef I’ll remember every- thing that happened to me. Plus, when I’m dead, and someone wants to write my biography, they won’t have to make stuff up about me. All right, here goes. My first official entry. My name is Lorelei, and today I’m 4,126 days old. That’s 11¼ years. Also, I’m a Cancer the Crab, if you fol- low astrology like I do. I have brown hair, which is mostly straight and down to my shoulders. But I’ve been putting egg yolks and olive oil on it for the past two weeks to make it grow faster, and I can already tell it’s working. My eyes are blue and I had twenty-seven freckles at last count. My mom’s name is Claire. My dad’s is Theo. And I have two smelly brothers—one older and one younger. 1
