I am an abandoner

Sigh...it's been....a long time. I'm sorry. I fail. When I was younger, I started and abandoned, like, 5 diaries. Each one started with "Hi! My name is Lisa! I"m going to write in you every day so someone will find this a thousand years from now and I'll be famous!" Then somewhere in the first or second entry would be a disclaimer like this: "I know that my sisters will find this and break into it and read it, so I'm not ever going to use real names. Especially BOYS' names."
A few pages later, the occurrence hinted at above would occur and there would be a drawing kind of looking like this:

Then, if you carefully observed the dates and entries, they would go something like this:
September 3, 1996: "Hi! My name is Lisa! I like boys!"
September 4, 1996: "I really like Brian because he has brown hair"
September 5, 1996: "Brian said today that he likes pickles. I like pickles! We should get married"
September 15, 1996: "So much has happened since I last wrote! I don't like Brian anymore. I like Pete."
November 19, 1996: "I'm so sorry I haven't written in so long! I like Brian again...."
June 5 1997: *See above picture*
January 4, 1998: "I'm so sorry I haven't written in so long! I've really grown up now though. I realize that I never really liked Brian or Pete. It was all a trick my mind was playing. No. I know better now. I realize now that I'm madly in love with John."

Sigh...I always felt like such a bad person. My diaries must have felt so sad. I would always apologize, too, because diaries have feelings too. Really.

Heinz bottles have the number 57 on them to represent how many pickles the company once had.

love lisa
