Dear Jill,
I'm sorry you're stuck there for longer than you want to be.  This
may actually be Hamilton's fault.  I talked to him last night and
he really wanted Scout to come since Sean's out of town and Will
has been such a dumbass lately.  I know that you try really hard
to like Bella and that sometimes the fact that she used to date
Scout really gets to you.  It's okay to feel like that, but I 
really do think that what they have now is totally on a friend-
ship level.  On the other hand, I wouldn't know how to deal with
any of Hamilton's ex-girlfriends (and he does, in fact, have a
few...a fact that I didn't get out of him until a recent phone
conversation...remind me to tell you about THAT sometime).  I
guess I would think of it like this.  You have a lot of ex-kind-
of-boyfriends that you're really good friends with, right?  Put
yourself in his shoes.  Anyway, maybe it doesn't have to do with
Bella at all and you really do just want to get home.  In that
case, I think you can suck it up for a few extra days.  I still
have to wait two more weeks before I get back to the city. The 
22nd to be exact.  My hair is still good, thanks for asking. I
don't think Hamilton will like it very much just because it's
different.  I'm going to have to cut it anyway so maybe I just
won't tell him about it at all.  I did consider the pink thing,
but it's been done now so...why bother? :)  Okay, well, enjoy
your last few days at R.A. and then have fun in the city for me.

Love 
Jacqueline
