You just might get it all.

Gah, I just love days like today. And nights like tonight.

John came over today. We ate macaroni for lunch, and then we watched Scrubs all afternoon. Man, it was great. It felt so good to just be lying on the couch with him, watching TV and being lazy. It was exactly what I had in mind for today. Plus, I got all my chores done before I picked him up. Well, everything except vacuuming. But I didn't have much to finish after I took him home, so everything worked out just fine.

We got to hang out tonight, too. My mom agreed that it was fair to let me go out with him since I did all the chores for her. And she even gave me a curfew of 10:00. That's rare, on a school night. But I gave her good reasons. Anyway, John suggested that we ask Naia to go out to eat with us, so I called her and invited her, but she said 'not tonight'. So John and I went ahead and drove over to Applebee's. But a few minutes after we ordered, Naia called and said she wanted to come eat with us. So John drove back to her house to pick her up, so she wouldn't have to drive after dark. I had to sit there by myself and wait for them to come back. But I didn't mind at all. I just sat there and watched all the people. All the noise in the restaurant just faded away after a few minutes, and it was actually kind of peaceful. I think there's something about Applebee's that does that to me. Well, the Applebee's in Easley, anyway. But every time I'm there, I just feel so relaxed. It's nice.

Anyway, it didn't take too long for John to get Naia, and we ended up having a really nice time. The food was great, and the conversation was too. After dinner, we went to Wal-Mart for a while. We actually spent like an hour there. It was fun, though. Especially when John and I went to the condoms section haha. We acted like we were actually going to get something. It was pretty funny. But in all seriousness, I'm glad that's not something we have to worry about right now. Not for a while, anyway. But I'm glad we can joke about it.

The rest of the night was pretty simple, I guess. After we left Wal-Mart, we took Naia home, and then John dropped me off at my house. And...now I'm sitting here posting this.

I just can't describe how great things are right now. I know that school's probably going to get really stressful in the near future (for both me and John), but it's nice knowing that there can still be days like today - days where I can just relax and not worry about anything. Days where I can be comfortable and be myself. Days where I can be lazy and watch Scrubs with John - and be incredibly distracted simply because he's lying on the couch next to me. I just love the feeling of knowing it can be like that.

Man, I want it to snow tonight. I really wish it would. I would prefer not to go to school tomorrow, even though I only have one class haha. It would be so cool if it snowed. But I don't know that I'd get to enjoy it with John. Our parents wouldn't let us be out driving in that kind of weather. Too bad he couldn't just stay the night at my house or something - I mean, if we knew for sure it was going to snow. It's not like we don't have enough room. But that's a thought I'm not going to entertain.

You know, I just thought about something. Every time I go to Applebee's, I hear that song "Home" by Daughtry. I've heard it the last three or four times I've been there. I wonder if that's trying to tell me something. I mean, I'm always there with John, so...

Anyway, I think I'm just going to go listen to music and talk to John on AIM for a little bit. I'm tired, but I'm just so relaxed. I wanna' enjoy this feeling while it lasts.

Goodnight.
