Dear Dumb Diary #7: Never Underestimate Your Dumbness - Dear Dumb Diary Jim Benton

The wedding Dear Dumb Diary readers have been anxiously anticipating is about to become a reality: Jamie's aunt and Angeline's uncle joined together until death do they part -- or until the divorce Jamie has been feverishly wishing for since they started dating finally happens. Now, three of Jamie's most dreaded nightmares are about to be combined into one unbearable event:

1) Very VERY poofy brown dresses

2) Wedding clogs

3) A lifetime of being related to Angeline, a.k.a. Blondewad

Jamie has just one word for this kind of horror:

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
