i beat yesterday's record: 11:22! By the time trev and i got to breakfast, it was 12:45.
today while trevor was on the phone with one of mom's friends, i was making cookies. while the phone was ringing, he decided to "sneak" some cookie dough. "whitney, i'm sneaking some cookie dough now." yeah trevor, ok. so he did. somewhere during the conversation, he stopped to let her get some words in. his eyes darted over to me and he got this mischievous grin. i glanced at him and he quickly put the cookie dough in his mouth and swallowed it just in time to answer the lady's question.
we went to night church tonight for the first time and it was really cool. i hope we can go more often, but then again, i'm leaving in two weeks and won't be back until mid-july, so it won't make much of a difference.

wow. i slept until 10:45. that's a personal record.
trevor and i went to lake lure today to paddle around in our inflatable boat. when we got there, it started to rain, so we sat in the car to wait it out. while we were waiting, it suddenly began to hail. it wasn't big (about pea sized) but it was really loud. i was afraid that we were going to have to turn around and drive the half hour or forty-five minutes back home, but it cleared up and we got to paddle around after all.
while we were there, we decided that we'd paddle over to the ruins. now i must explain what the ruins are. there is a place about a leisurely thirty minutes paddle away from where we put the boat in that has the ruins of four or five old stone houses. i don't know how old the houses are, why they were there or why the hidden neighborhood surrounding it doesn't tear them all the way down. there are stone walls that still stand on some of them and some of them are just a foundation and a chimney. it's very interesting. so we went to the ruins and began to walk around. we decided to make up a story for every ruin that was there. we ate different parts of our lunch in what we thought was the dining room of each of the ruins. in the last one, the outside walls were still standing and one chimney that stuck out high in the sky. the fireplace part of the chimney was about ten feet up from the ground, but we found that if we went around to the other side of the castle, as trevor called it, we could climb into the ample fireplace. so we did and we ate the main part of our lunch, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, in there. we had a blast and got very dirty. when lunch was over, we went back to the car and went home.
we're going to vegetate tonight. pizza, root beer, a movie and peanut butter m&m's. this is our last night of freedom, after all.
i dreamed last night that someone was asking me to sleep with them. i told whoever it was (i don't think i knew the guy) that i wouldn't do it because i wanted to be able to tell my future husband that i had saved myself for my whole life just for him. the guy blinked at me for a moment in thought and then left me alone.

i felt like writing earlier, but now i don't really. i'm going to try anyway.
trevor and i are parentless until sunday, so we decided to go to the ap&b today to see daredevil. i had never been, but he had, so he told me what to expect. it was the most awesome theatre i've ever been in. i really liked the fine arts theatre, but this one beat it by far. the whole theatre was rather old and obviously past its prime (by most standards) but that just made it that much better. they had taken out all of the seats in the front third and replaced them with a row of couches and a row of boothes. in the rest of the theatre, they had taken out every other row of seats and replaced them with a long tables for you to eat on. none of the theatre seats matched each other, but that was ok. they were deep seats that were very soft, very comfortable and leaned back. in the back corner there was a bar where you could get your drinks and food. trev and i got pizza and root beer. now imagine: sitting in a comfortable seat leaning back, eating pizza, drinking root beer and watching a movie. is there anything more wonderful?
then we went out and hung around downtown. i had a blast, however, i don't appreciate homeless people accosting me and requesting that i "help [them] out with a little spare change."
while at t.s. morrison's, trevor bought me something that i've been wanting. when he handed it to me, i said, "oh, trevor, you're so nice."
he smiled and said, "it was cheap."
i laughed and said, "trevor! that wasn't the right thing to say!"
he said, "oh. um, i mean, it was sooo expensive and i sacrificed to get . . .
i laughed again and said, "no, that isn't it either."
he blinked and thought and then said, "you're the first woman . . ."
i laughed and shook my head. "no, that's not it."
he said, "well then what is the right answer?"
"oh, i don't know...just say 'thank you' or 'i knew how much you liked it' or something like that."
he smiled and said, "oh. ok, i'll remember that."
