* Breakfast of Champions
* Slapstick
* Jailbird
* Deadeye Dick
* Hocus Pocus
* Timequake

I'm buying Carl a new hoodie
I'm getting myself one as well, or rather, my dad is, for my birthday
There were other things too, for Carl, but my memory is lacking… sorry, love.
We still need to go out to dinner
He owes me a breakfast date as well (which includes the night before and watching the sunrise)
He's also supposed to get me a new shirt
Still things we need to do.
Go to the drive in
(me personally) Go out to lunch with Katie, Liz(, others?)
Go to the zoo, the planetarium, the beach
Camping out in the tent for a while. I want to try for most of the summer. I want to see if we can get a new tent.
Celebrate valentine's
Play in the rain and watch Lightning outside under a gazebo
Plant flowers
Lay in the field at night and watch shooting stars (April 21st is next, about 3 a.m., so take a nap early on!)
Spend a day (and money) at Great Lakes Crossing together
Create something beautiful that I can really be proud of


Also, I want to go to build-a-bear.

She didn't make it this far just shaking hands.

I really never thought I'd say it, but that is a badass Nickelback song.
It really doesn't even sound like them.


By the way, I made $30 for babysitting overnight. In terms of the total hours I spent at their house (about 16), I made less than $2 an hour. However in terms of the total hours I was actually babysitting (about 3), I think I did pretty good. And I got to spend a night to myself watching every movie that I'd ever wanted to see from the last two years (Jason's dad bootlegged about 70 different ones), and in the morning, Jason's brother was already there. Besides, they're family, so I don't expect them to pay me a whole lot.

And I'm not going to tell them, but while I was watching movies, I kept hearing noises over the baby monitor. Some of them were Paige moving around in bed, but at one point, a man's voice definitely said "Hi," and for a little while I kept hearing sort of a half breathing, half moaning noise. It was like someone sighing and as they exhaled, they started to moan.
Yeah. A little bit creepy, but that's all that happened.


So now, I'm off to shower and then maybe do homework.


I miss you a lot and I really wish that I could see you sometime soon.
