From my sister Margaret:

today has been such a bad day. it's one of those days where everything goes wrong in and out of class and to top it off you wear navy blue socks to school. i should have known they were too dark to be green. but the lighting in my room is so weird! anyways, though i will tell her, make sure to convey to mom my apologies, i never mean to conceal everything, i just don't know how to talk. even to my family. because i was born a mute and have remained relatively silent so it's not second nature to open up and talk to people like it is for you. i think they're main problem is that i don't talk to them like you did. well sorry mom, i'm not mary. i don't shine like the aurora borefrickinalis. so yeah. i have learned from my mistakes, obviously i have erred, and will try to avoid this problem in the near future so i can keep my pretty head on my shoulders. well, my neck, but you know how expressions are. hope you had fun being dolphin frickin friendly.
