NOTES by Beth The lights were off, Brittany and Kevin were making out, and the entire english class was watching "West Side Story" . Mr. O'Neil was near tears. And nothing tragic had even HAPPENED yet. Daria and Jane wrote each other notes to pass the time. Hey Daria- what do you think of this! Daria, my brother's in love with Daria And suddenly his brain Will never be the same 'Cause half his thoughts are focused on Daria It has caused his room to stop decaying When she reads this I'd better start praying Daria Dariiiaaaaaaa. It's true! he actually cleaned his room in case you ever see it. (And it *was* decaying in there.) Now we can all breathe again. Anyway, Trent says that you "make him seriously happy" just by existing. - Jane Jane, when I get through with you, there will be nothing left of you but a dark stain on the carpet. - Daria Temper, temper! If you kill me, you might get blood on your jacket, and you'd look less than your best for TRENT!! Besides, do you think he'd be pleased if you murdered his favorite sister? - Jane I'm warning you, dammit. - Daria I'm serious- He's lost *sleep* over you. - Jane P.S. You're starting to turn a bit red. Is it from the thought of Trentor anger or the rash, back with a vengance? -Jane Don't toy with me. - Daria I'm going to get Trent to sing the Daria song at his gig tonight, substituting "my" for "his" , etc. Jane Lane, Daria's pain. I told you to stop. Payback's a bitch- here it goes. Trent told me that you have had a crush on Jesse since you were nine. -Daria STOP CHANGING THE SUBJECT!! We were talking about you and Trent. You guys keep *hedging* when I mention the other one. Out with it. You're crazy about him. -Jane P.S. Don't listen to anything my brother says! He lies like a rug- lie lie lie lie lie lie LIE!! He also said that when you were about four, you liked to sing along with sesame street. - Daria I DID NOT! Well, you know what he said about you? "XXXXOOXXOXOXX" THAT'S what! Trent's the one who sang along- he made up funny lyrics to make me laugh. -Jane He still does. -Daria Well, yeah but not on purpose. -Jane True. And he also said you once ate a dog biscuit. -Daria LIE! *He* once ate a lighting bug. -J ane What did it do? How old was he? -Daria I'll tell him you were concerned. He was five or six, and Penny told me about it. He was very dissapointed when it didn't make his tongue glow in the dark. -Jane I can imagine. But I think your'e lying, though. If Tren'ts such a liar, maybe it runs in la famille, Jane LANE - Daria Hey! One day you're going to *be* a Lane, and you're going to spawn a lot more. Twins run in the family. You'll make a nice sister-in-law. Can I be your maid of honor? -Jane You can be the dog, as long as you're convinced we're playing house. I have no interest in being married. - Daria So you're going to shack up? -Jane Are you going to *shut* up? -Daria Oh, relax. Watch the movie. It's a classic- and much, *much* better than when Mr. O'Neil played that tape of Sonny and Cher singing "I've got you babe" as a reward for not screaming. -Jane Don't remind me. -Daria Okay, I'm going to stop writing and watch the fight scenes- I heard the choreographer watched cockfights to get it right. Later, Jane
