So I talked to Andrew yesterday for the first time in a few weeks. It was pleasant. It's sorta how my family and I argue.
1. We argue
2. We ignore eachother for a while
3. We're a little bit too nice to eachother
4. And then we act like normal. Like nothing happened.
We joked around a bit too and caught up with eachother. It was nice.
I might go to Maui for about 10 days to babysit Max and Eve while Liz is visiting the east coast. I called her yesterday (got the answering machine) and she just called back today. It'll be in October. I need to get my license.
So this is what I have for my story so far.
I still need to figure out what the whole plot is and what's actually going to happen in what order.
I'm going to make one of those plot charts (I forgot what they're called) and a whole bunch of other things. Maybe some sketches to help me.

The Dream:
I was in my computer class at school and I got pulled out of it by this brown haired blue eyed tall boy took me among other poeple to his room where he had a little trap door on the floor that he covered with a black blanket and it was next to his bed.
There were about 4 or 5 of us counting the guy. he led us down the trap door and into this little narrow stairway beneath it and we went near all of the way down which wasnt too far down and he led us off of the builing because it led outside and we all jumped down into the trees and caught on to them.
when we were hanging onto the trees( easily I might add) we looked around to see people flying with small contraptions and other people on the ground were hearding animals or something.
I think it was really important and life changing because when we dropped down into the bottom of the stairs and went into this little door in the bottom of the floor (at the bottom of the stairs still) I got up first and scooched in a bit because the ceiling was low and held onto this bundle of little sticks that made up something to hold (they were everywhere)
There was a lady not out of her 20's that was scowling at the brown haired guy that took us there and yelled "What do you think you're doing showing them, we have to kill them now!" and he said back rationally " I wouldn't have taken them down here if I didnt think that she was the one" and her eyes opened up wide and she turned around and left.
We walked up the stairs (though it didnt take much time)and we all got out from the floor and he closed the hatch and covered it with blankets.
His mom came in and uncovered it and went down a little bit and she had a hamperfull of laundry. I had a feeling she wasnt supposed to know about the rest of the stairs but she went off into this flat section off of the stairs.
The guy closed it again and covered it and we left the room in a rush.
We ran into this older guy and the brown haired boy grabbed him and told him that he had to hide him and he hid him inside of this little bookshelf which im sure went off into this big long hump of clouds and he said "Shall you stay here like an unread book" and then he rushed into the stone halls of the place and randomly went in doors leaving us waiting for him outside.
Other people came and grabbed the others in the group and me and the boy continued along the hallway of doors.
He stopped randomly now and again and once he went in and 4 of him came out and one of him joined me again.
after this I think we ended up in his room again. There was a little boy sitting on the bed on the floor waiting. the older boy opened the latch and told me to get down there for a minute and check if his mom was down there.
She wasnt and so he told me that I can move and freeze water and I have to learn how to move the waves. there was hundreds of little pegs that he placed in front of me on the stairs and I had to freeze them and make them move in a wave. I couldnt do it.
I freezed the windows so no one could see in which I thought important and needed. moving the pegs didnt last for long and I was up in his room practicing moving and freezeing the water. He was teaching me how to control it. His mom walked in and he signaled to me to unfreeze the windows fast. I did so.
She came around and opened the hatch to go down the stairs to the laundry. and he made me stand in the floor doorway again. the mom came up the stairs and told me to try moving the pegs again. I got to thinkng that she had gone through similar training as I had and she told her boy that it was okay.
the next day I was in there (these all happened withing a span of days of course) the mom was in there helping me too. the windows weren't frosted because the mom said it was unnessesary at the moment. I was learning something new.
The mom was across from me diagonally and her son was sort of next to the door. it came totally unexpected/ someone came shooting out of somewhere in the room but the mom caught them in a blanket. I froze the windows and said "i'll freeze the windows so they cant see us" the mom was on the ground on the deep red blanket and something was underneath it. The mom said "it's too late, they're under my foot".
I blacked out from something and I woke up in a different place. A big place. There was a woman looking at me and she said something but I couldnt understand her. I looked at her questioningly and then I could make out "dont worry". An old man come in the big dark room and said something to the woman and I was coming to. I was in a study. they came and were explaining things to me. that they had a differnet settlement in the mountains and that I was there.
Then they said things that made no sense to me at all. I tried to make sense of it but it was fruitless. They told me all of this while I was still lying down. When they finished talking I sort of drifted back to sleep but I felt one of them lift my head and let it down gently
When I woke up I was in the brown haired boys room lying on his bed. I got up and looked around. no one was there.
I got up and walked out of the room and into this big place. There was snow on the ground and I saw the brown haired boy. I walked up to him and he looked at me, walked over, and grabed me gently by the arm and led me to where he was standing before.
He told me to move the snow a little bit. I did so and I was facing metal tracks moving and different colored lights blinking into what made a monkey.
It all stopped moving and I asked him why he did this and he said "look at your necklace" and he reached for it and showed me. I didnt remember ever having this necklace, I told him. but it did look familiar.
We went back to his room and there was the little boy again. We were going somewhere. I didnt have any shoes so the brown haired guy asked me if I wanted to borrow some shoes. I said sure and we were on our way as soon as I put them on.
We went down through the trap door and down the stairs to another trap door.
I dont really remember where we were going but later there was a big group of people traveling up the mountain and into the settlement that was up there. There was a lot of technology and a huge library
(Mind you, it was Sophomore year when I had this dream and when I wrote it down :p)
============================
My mom had a dream about flying.
Flying is something that you really really love. The feeling. For her it's nature. Haha, she started explaining it more to me and it turned out like something from Peter Pan.
Edit: Maui's looking like a month deal. And Amber told me that she's buying us Regina Spektor tickets for the 4th of November for my birthday. She's such a sweetie.
My dad wants me to get a job for the 2 weeks I'll be home and to tell them right off that I'll be gone for a month... Right. (I wanna work at that preschool down the street)
