Who knows why?

So, for the most recent development in the Avalon house we have transformed our pillow talk to become more productive. "How can this happen?" you might ask. How can the amazing and smart guys on Avalon be able to be more productive in their pillow talk time? Well, I will let you in on our little secret. We now have discussion questions that we pick out each night. Though I will not let you in on ALL of our geniusness I will tell you Sunday night's discussion question, "What are three things that your future wife (that is if we get married, which we are all hoping for) MUST HAVE?" What a great discussion we had. Matt made the discovery that the three essentials all Keith, Matt, and I expressed were very good descriptions of ourselves. Interesting, does this make us self-centered or seeking someone exactly like us? I don't think so but what it does show is the three most important things we value the most within ourselves. Hopefully tonight we will get to hear all about something else. Only the discussion jar and God know what we will be discussing tonight!

After our discussion, Keith fell asleep, Evan came in to sleep and Matt and I layed there, saying our goodnights and trying to sleep. For some reason, I wanted to laugh because I kept saying "goodnight, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite, and if they do, hit them with a shoe, until they are black and blue." I was told this all growing up and so every time I would say this, I would begin to laugh. I would end this laughing with "okay really goodnight" and say the entire thing again with fits of giggles. Matt began to laugh as well and soon Evan joined. We couldn't stop laughing for a good ten minutes and wanted to so bad. Yet, every time it got quiet, we knew that someone would be trying to hold in laughter and then everyone would burst out laughing again. We never really understood what was so funny; Evan thought we had said something funny earlier and that was why he was laughing. Strange how laughter works like that. No one really knows why it is funny that others are laughing yet everyone joins in. Finally we were all quiet and got to sleep. I layed there and chuckeled to myself, making sure no one else heard so that no one would start laughing. We successfully fell asleep. I am glad too because I needed it. A great night and a satisfying discussion. I do enjoy our camp experience we have developed in our tiny room with four of us present. What fun we have! That is it.
I'm out.
