Rainy Days

Welp.. the bonfire had to be postponed 'til next Friday and while Jason, Jess, and Josiah won't be able to come perhaps Nathan and Kathryn and Graham will be able too. Poor Caleb... I think he'll come but he doesn't know what to without Jason there to play guitar with him. They're becoming quite a pair. :) Jessie and Jay had a recent bad stretch in their relationship, but it seems to only have lasted a day or two. They were behaving normally last night. Yup, last night since the bonfire was cancled Caleb, Courtney, Josiah, Jason, and Jessie and I hung out and went bowling, and saw War of the Worlds at the Brew 'n View. As for the movie I'm sorry I saw it. Maybe I'd enjoy it more if I'd read the book but... I found the movie a rather disgusting attempt at sci-fi horror that left me feeling a bit disturbed. And the ending was far too blunt. The only good part of the movie is the part Dakota Fanning played was a horse crazy girl who won a 3rd place ribbon at a horse show that looks exactly like some of my Tri-County ribbons. And she had some really cool/classic Breyer Models too. Definately a cool kid. :) But otherwise it wasn't worth watching the movie.

We did have a great time hanging out though! After we finally decided what time we were all gonna get together peoples dispersed from school and Jay and I went over to Barnes & Noble. As a disclaimer he entered the children's section first. I only followed. *innocent angelic smile* I found Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry and I never realized it was a kid's book. Perhaps young adult fiction but... it's a little rough for kids. But then I was probably eleven or so when I read it so maybe not. Anywho... I don't own it so I had to buy it. Jason had fun giving me a hard time that there's a difference between browsing children's books and buying children's books. As ususal I think he's full of mud.

Courtney met up with us at the bowling alley and we had a blast. Jason taught Caleb how to throw a curve ball whatever thing that Jason does. Courtney and I both got strikes. I think Josiah got some strikes too and of course Caleb and Jason got strikes. We started this thing that everyone who isn't bowling makes big hand motions in the direction the ball needs to go while the bowler is watching the ball go down the lane. It only helped Courtney though. *shrug* but it was fun. Then Josiah started us getting off doing the wave while the bowler was in mid-throw. It was crazy. I'm sure the people around us thought we were nuts. But we were being crazy together so it was great. And then at the Brew 'n View. Well... there musta been something in the root beer...

Jason and I did that dance thing (DDR..that step on arrows thing). And some time during that Josiah confessed to Jessie that ever since he was little he always wanted to be a latin dancer. But that's not what Jessie heard. She heard "lap" dancer. The jokes - good and bad - flowed from there and ended somewhere around Caleb making the comment that "I like this Greek pizza and all but, dang! With all this garlic I'm not gonna get to kiss anyone all night!" which was met with a sypathetic "awwww" from the girls. Jay and Josiah got indignant. Jason made some comment to tie that back to Josiah's lap dancing... I'm prolly better off for not remebering it but I think it was God ordained he was stuck sitting between me and Jessie at supper. She and I think enough alike that Jason was doomed to be slapped simultaneously throughout supper. It was a great evening....

But I need to get my day started! I'm still in my pj's and it's almost 1 pm. Kay.. I love ya'll!!

Oh P.S. Arthur is so hilariously confused. It'd be entirely hilarious if it weren't so pathetic. You know, I've prayed so much for clarily in this relationship and I think I'm finally seeing. When we were younger he was so spiritually mature in someways that I never realized how incredibly socially immature the boy really is. He thinks he knows so much but he doesn't really have a clue. But anyway... I need to get goin'. I love ya'll and I love you Heavenly Daddy.
