The Dewitt boys did annoy me at Universal studios in this book, they would have driven me nuts. I can see a little bit how Kristy was upset because their is relaxed and too relaxed and The WLKC I think was too relaxed.

^ I can totally relate to Kristy since disorganization drives me insane. I think I would be a bit of a tyrant as a club president, too ;D I was bad enough being a scrooge as 4-H treasurer ;D

The point is for parents to make one phone call and reach several sitters, but we're way too laid-back to have regular meeting times. This is California, though, so everyone is all freaky psychic and clients just sense when we're having a meeting. See, we're really in tune with the universe here."

^ That always really bothered me, too. In fact, the whole "club" seemed kind of pointless since they lacked any type of real organization. Felt like a cheap attempt to copy the BSC. But I'm not a big fan of the CA girls anyway, so I might be being too harsh. I also very organized, though, so that is probably where the frustration with the WLKC comes from.

It bothered me as well! I love CA Girls and Dawn in CA books in general (and her CA friends, lol) but the club is POINTLESS! And poor Sunny, is she one who has to deal with all the calls that come in at random times? Does she have her own phone line like Claud? Was anyone other than the BSC ever impressed w/ Claudia's phone line? Me and my 2 sisters had our own phone line growing up so I was always like WTH when they acted like Claud was sooooo lucky.

The more I think about it the WLKC really bothers me too! How would they even run? How did they stay in business?

Unless Sunny just always has the record book and when a call comes in, she justs books anyone who's free and tells them about it later. Not always convenient but it could work.

I had my own phone line once and it actually annoyed me for some reason. I only had it though because it had something do with the internet connection in my room.
As far as Sunny goes, I could see her booking a job but then forgetting to tell somebody about it for some reason.

[dork moment] OT, but every time I see this thread, I sing Gretchen Wilson's "California Girls" in my head.

^ Me too ;D Glad I'm not the only one. It's hard to picture the stereotypical CA blondes because I keep picturing Gretchen Wilson in the video ;D Totally agree, msstock, about Sunny. For some reason, she doesn't seem very responsible to me. Not sure why.

oh yeah I can def see Sunny not telling the other girls when she books them for jobs. but then again, ca parents are soooo laid back that they probably wouldn't even care

I think some of my opinions about Sunny could come from the CA diaries, so that could be why I don't think she is very responsible.
