these girls fall like dominos, dominos.

last friday i had a bonfire. weather was unbelievably perfect for it. i usually have several fires a summer--but this summer i had none. boo. so dan, amy, and jojo came over early to start the fire (as dan is the master firebuilder). soon after, heather, whit, lydia, larissa, and laura arrived. a bit later, mike, brittany, tommy, and brittany's friend (who's name escapes me) came as well. it was such a good mix of people! sometimes i get nervous about introducing friends from different circles together, but everyone was laughing and sharing stories. we had "scary story" time (which helped me to not sleep all night), and we had "let's write out a horror movie of our lives" time. mike brought smores with peanut butter, while dan whittled marshmallow sticks. yes. whittled. all was lovely.

the next day i went to take care of mr. sick--a.k.a. the boyfriend, who had to return home from his dino trail tour due to contracting the sickness. while justin was sick, we watched a ridiculous amount of movies. i would recap, but he did that mostly for me on his tumblr: the dino trail

one of the things we watched was the DVD of the comedian eddie izzard: the most hilarious comic i have seen in years. he is so intelligent, and it is like listening to a historian with a sense of humor. i think i am in love. please watch these clips--i was laughing so hard. oh my.





this weekend i have lazied in bed and watched the following movies:

(3.75 out of five stars)
(4.50 out of 5 stars)

heather and i went to see an education last night. i give it 3.75 stars out of 5. good stuff. sometimes heartbreaking. it was difficult to understand in the first few minutes due to the british slang and the drinks we had before watching.

and today heather, lyds, whit, and i went to coffee a few hours ago. i love my girls, and whitney is getting so big! i am in love with his squeals and smiles!
