Hey Soul Sisters.

If your wondering about the title, Melanie REFUSES to let any of us dolls listen to that song by Train, even though I have it on my iPod (rebellious, aren't I?)

As for the real reason of this blog,

Today, after school registration, (ack.) I tried to comfort Julie.
All I got in return was "WHY DO I HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO SUFFER?" I couldn't take it anymore, I love Julie like a real sister, so I hate to see her like this, so I went to the one of the only people I know who can make Julie happy.

Yes, that's right, I went and talked to Melanie.

"Yeah, Chris?" she asked.
"Well, Julie has been acting like a semi truck ran over her heart lately" I replied.
"Oh yeah, I was wondering about that. Do you know what happened?" She asked, looking over in Julie's direction.
"No." I lied, which Melanie, like always, knew I did
"And now the truth?" She said.
"Okay, she was on the phone with Ivy a couple days back and she was told, by Ivy, that Ivy wasn't going to be joining our family." I told.
"Oh, really? That's too bad." She said with her mind somewhere else.
"What are you thinking about, Mel?" I questioned.
"Can you keep a secret" She lowered her voice to a whisper.
"Yes."
"I have changed my mind, I am not going to be asking for Ivy, she looks too much like Jess, I am actually asking for a Rebecca for my birthday" She told, I couldn't believe what I had heard.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yes! I even found the perfect Becca, she is in the American Girl Place in Chicago. Oh, speaking of that, Mom said we might go there the weekend of my birthday." She replied,
this was news to me. "Am I going?"
"Of course! Every one's going, we are getting our 12th, and most likely final, member of the 'Randomly Retro Girls'" She said.
"Oh." Was all I managed to say.
"I have to go, Chris." Melanie said, then left.

Rebecca?
Chicago?
LAST DOLL?

Oh.... no...
