I have learned so much in this place, Father. I go to school now and have a job and do all kinds of things that real girls do. But there's still so much to do and tonight I hope to have another experience that I've heard so much about. I've watched movies and read books and nearly all of them talk about slumber parties as if they're the quintessential coming of age experience.

I want to have these experiences, things I never would have done had Mother succeeded.

So tonight I've planned a night with my friends, and invited them to invite a few of theirs. I have cookies and ice cream and pizza and games and scary movies to watch and I truly hope that everyone enjoys themselves. There are pillows and sleeping bags all over our living room and I have to thank you for allowing me to overrun the apartment like this.

I do hope we all have fun.

"Truth or Dare? What kind of game is that? Can we play that tonight?" I don't know what other games to play other than, well, board games. Which I have if others are interested, but I'd rather something much more traditional.

"Oh man. It's well... It can be pretty awful. I mean, you get to dare someone to do something or if they pick truth you ask them something, usually embarassing." There might be a fun way to play the game, but she's never seen it. "Stick with boardgames and pizza."
