“Billy paced back and forth in his room. He sat on his bed. He sat at his desk. He sat on his desk. Then he paced again. Nothing was helping. His mind was a total blank, except for the panic that was slowly creeping in. “Stop pacing, will ya?” the Hoove said. “You’re going to give yourself blisters on the bottom of your feet.” “Wait a minute. That’s an idea,” Billy said. “How about if I demonstrate that? I can just pace back and forth from one end of the class to the other until I get a blister....” “Knowing you, you’d cover it with a fluorescent yellow Band-Aid with teddy bears,” the Hoove said, a noticeably sarcastic tone in his voice. “Besides, what if you didn’t get a blister? Maybe you’d get a callus instead. Then where would you be?” “Knock it off, Hoove. I’m working hard here to come up with something, and your negative comments aren’t helping.” “Fine, do the dental floss thing. Go ahead and flick your breakfast morsels at everyone. See if I care.”MoreLessRead More Read Less
