I know what you’re thinking,” I said to my snake Walter as I gently placed him back in his cage. “This room is craaaaaazy.” Frogster the frog hopped in his terrarium to show he agreed with my opinion. Normally my room was a certified disaster area—clothes, books, and sports stuff everywhere. But tonight, there wasn’t a single piece of clothing on my floor, and I had put away all my equipment very neatly. (Okay, more like shoved it under my bed, but close enough, right?) Best of all, my suitcases were packed, zipped, and waiting for me by the door. I couldn’t believe it. In twelve hours I’d be on a plane soaring over the city of Boston. That meant sixteen hours till Dad, and about thirty-six hours till I’d be hitting the primo Colorado snowboarding slopes in Telluride. “Yup, definitely crazy.”

I signed online to say a vacation good-bye to my best friends, the BSG.
