saves the day - certain tragedy

oh, so hey! elaina's here! she got here yesterday evening, and it's just been fantastic since. seriously. so much stuff has happened, so much more is going to happen. yesterday we were going to go to the supermall. we were almost there (so close!) when she saw the exit for seattle... and we decided to go to seattle instead. we ended up at cole's house! it was so fun. we went down to the beach and climbed the waterfall again, only this time it was dark and impossible to see where to go. my pants got all wet, my feet got all sandy. it was great. later we were driving around trying to find someone... ended up at jake's. i haven't seen him since i went up there 2 summers ago. he's changed a lot, but still the same. you know how wine gets better with age? that's jake. jake is wine.
we had to leave eventually, after giving jake the ever-blessed dollar for a coke that he hadn't drunk in several days. we're going back there tomorrow morning, for most of the day. we'll be home in time for elaina to leave at 5, then i'll be over at tuey's the rest of the night.
and today? we were up at 8. drove my mom to work. sat around southcenter eating cinnabon, then windowshopped until all the shops opened up. i spent a lot of money, bought new clothes and cd's and a poster, and it was wonderful. hit up goodwill, came back home and picked up my job applications - turned them in. elaina met russ, she agrees with me about how beautiful he is. did the lifeguarding thing - skipped out early to pick up my mom from work. went to tuey's, ate at applebee's (GOOD FOOD!), wandered the mall a little. went back to tuey's. her mom gave me bandaids for my toes and a pina colada. ate birthday cheesecake - came home again and watched a little of say anything, but now... well, i'm not watching it now. i'll watch it later i guess.
