dead silence

ola. i'm at elaina's right now. i'm surprised i found time to blog, but while i was in the shower, everyone passed out in front of the tv. so it doesn't really matter that i ditched them - they're cute while they're sleeping.
so yeah, i'm at elaina's right now. it's all great fun! from the second i saw elaina... well no, i didn't really see her. she ran up behind me and jumped on my back and we had about a 5-minute conversation before i saw anything except a giant blanket. so that gives you an idea of what it's been like since i got here. soon after we got to elaina's, david and william and michael showed up, and that was nifty. we all sat around watching tv and movies and such, and david got us presents - he got me an arwyn doll! i didn't have the heart to tell him i hate arwyn with the deepest passions of my soul, because he at least got lord of the rings right. so we all played with my new barbie for a while, then played battle of the sexes simpsons style. can you believe it? william and david won! elaina and i seriously think they cheated somehow. so, later william left and came back with tony, and we watched more movies, and around 10:30 i started getting really really restless. i called cole, i called tuey, but didn't get to talk to either for much longer than 3 or 4 minutes. the guys took off to get some sleep, and i was even more restless. wandering around, unable to sit and do anything for more than a minute.
so elaina and i went for a walk. we snuck onto private property and sat by the bay and looked at the water and watched the lights of the little towns across the bay and told ghost stories. then the people in the house came out and started searching the yard with flashlights, which scared us, and we hid behind a tree and they didn't find us. after about 2 hours we went back, and got home around 1 am. so we went to bed. and it was nice.
until i got shocked awake by really cold hands pressing against my face. total disorientation. i couldn't figure out what was going on, there were all these dark figures wandering around the dark room... david, william, and michael climbed through elaina's window at 5 am and crawled into bed with us. didn't get much sleep after that though. around... 7:30? elaina's parents got up and were making coffee, so i got up and ate oatmeal and drank coffee, and said not a word about the 3 boys in bed with elaina about 50 feet away. it was funnier that way. especially when, after ed went to work, becky walked down the hall and i heard "get out of my daughter's bed!" heheh. michael and david came running out, and becky continued with the "no william, you can not stay in bed with my daughter." like that made any difference. so more tv watching ensued, and early morning groggy kind of chatting.
and... yeah. other than that, i actually watched the sun rise. unlike federal way, where the sky just gets kind of lighter every few minutes, it actually rises here. it was neat. and the stars... i don't even know where to begin with those. it's beautiful.
and then the internet died, and an hour later i'm once again bored out of my mind. they're all in elaina's room now, michael passed out on the floor, david hiding under a blanket, and william and elaina are just talking and stuff. elaina just came in and called me a stupid bitch wang for leaving them. but i'm going back just as soon as this posts.
