Lay, Lie, Laid, Lain?!

Tonight, a bunch of friends came over and we watched BF/GF, the movie Nick, Rachel, and I made ,with lots of help from Katie, Tania, and Autumn. It was hilarious, and we were all laughing. I want to put the entire thing on Youtube, with false starts and bloopers all in place. We made up SO many inside jokes while we were filming that thing. I'm tempted to try to list them, but I won't.

In any case, I still feel like that was my creative hey-day. I miss that version of my old self. I was more sure about things and I felt more secure about my life. Now that some things have failed, I'm not quite the same way anymore. I'm wiser now, I suppose. Some parts of my life have improved a lot, most notably with Rachel. And I just wrote a novel twice as long as the one I finished back then. My drawings are improving, I've been dabbling more with techno music and my card game... so why is it that I feel like I'm not at the same level as I was before?

After everyone else left at the request of my mom, Rachel and I sat in my car in the driveway with the seats leaned back. The moonlight was shining on her face and we just lay there and talked for a little while before we decided it was time for her to go. (I'm pretty sure "lay" is the correct word there. I just looked it up. I needed to know.) It was nice. I would like to do that more. I guess it reminded me of what we used to do all the time. My car is where almost all of our romantic development took place, if you must know. I would say this is probably true for a lot of teen couples. The car is an important place, for many reasons.

Alright. I'm off to read chater 2, and then go to bed. Good night. Thanks to everyone who came over today and to those who showed an interest in my book. It means a lot!
