7/18 Kisses and Sushi Burritos

TODAY WAS JUST AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!! I just can't believe how amazing it was, but it was great, so great.

I met Sarah Rebecca Trefflich today for the very first time in person. She isn't as tall as I thought she might be. We just hit it off straight away. I mean it is just crazy how comfortable we were with each other, and how not awkward it was to just be together. We kissed! Multiple times throughout the date. But we initially kissed, and it wasn't weird at all. I am so attracted to her in so many ways. I don't think I'm afraid anymore.

We left and I took her by In N Out, but we were spontaneous and got Sushi Burritos and shared our meals and some water. We were there for over an hour, just talking. Humming songs we knew. The food was good. It was just a huge bar of sushi, which was pretty good. I probably wouldn't do it again, unless I am in the mood for Sushi. I shared my Instagram pictures with her. She looked through some of them, always complimenting me on all my testimony posts. It was nice showing her things and we also read from some of our texts and facebook messages. She kept on saying as she was reading my texts that that specific text is when she knew I was the one. I told her when we were done, that she'd probably laugh when we got to our next destination, which was like a 30 second drive to the Barnes and Noble in the SAME complex, and she did laugh.

She was so excited about a book scavenger hunt that she kissed me several times again. It was definitely welcome. We used the wheelchair since she needed to get the books. We chose four categories. They were, a book with a spy on the cover, a book we liked, a book we didn't like, and a sci-fi book that we read before. She got Harriet the Spy, Crime and Punishment, a book by Ayn Rand, and a Stranger book. The book I liked, and read to her was The Day the Crayons Quit, and she enjoyed it immensely. East of Eden by John Steinbeck was my not like book. And I got two sci-fi/fantasy books: Wizard's First Rule and Ender's Game. I picked out two spy books because I wasn't sure she'd find one, but she was clever in her choice. We wheeled around putting books back and headed out.

Before we went to Walmart to get her a new phone, we stopped by a plot of land close to the post office and mall where her Grandmother use to live. She told me a story about her and then showed me a point that looked over the whole valley where she use to walk to find comfort. It was very pretty, and she was naming bits of mountain, including Y-mount and Timpanogos. We then went to Walmart. A lady stopped us and said I should have let her out so she wouldn't have to crutch so far. She was right, so when we got back into the car I drove to pick her up. She didn't get the phone that she wanted, but oh well. I told her about feeling anxious at Walmart.

Then we drove to Nielson's Grove Park (although, at the time I didn't know the name) which is  really close to Walmart. She just drank it all in. We wheeled around the duck pond and the flower gardens. Then we sat and parked the wheelchair and lay down next to each other, reading Lectures of Faith. We talked about stuff that have been holding us back and all the changes that I had made the God had inspired me to make. I didn't know I had made such changes until Sarah listed them out for me. We were surprised by the time because we had both been on Cali time. So we finished and drove back to her house, me parking the van in Justin's spot and me helping Sarah to her apartment. And we called it a night after kissing some more. It was just grand.

I spent time with Sabina Michelle for a bit before Sarah was ready to have me. She asked me about myself and I gave her a comprehensive list, haha. We related in that we are from a family of 6. She did mention that her mother had passed of an illness a couple of years ago and that her family has grown closer since, but that she didn't have closure in what finally caused her mother to pass. She told me she loves percussion instruments and owns a guitar with broken strings and short bridge. She was playing with Sarah saying we had eloped, haha. She asked me if there were any questions I had about Sarah that I wouldn't want to ask her, but I couldn't think of any. She did tell me some of the things, which were few that she didn't like.

I went to see Sarah, my sister at the Creamery Outlet where she works. It was nice to see and hug her. And to see where she's been working. I also went to the bathroom, because the bathroom at the gas station I went to had an out of order bathroom. I had an enjoyable time with Kathrine Fawcett, my cousin driving up. We had lots to talk about. Although, part of the way we listened to music and the other part she had nodded off as well.

I woke up earlier than I thought I would because I had a weird dream about not graduating high school, being a junior and not passing math and english.

Now, I'm at Uncle David's house. We had a nice conversation about our family, which is sometimes crazy. Despite his hard life, I do love him. He gave me cookies and water and diet pepsi.

Tomorrow's going to be a good day!
