Way back when

Since tomorrow is my last day of class for the week and there's nothing due, I am takin' it easy tonight. Geoff has to go give a presentation at 11:30 p.m., and then another one at 5:00 in the morning (crazy!!) but for a few hours we hung out. We watched most of The Burbs, symbolic of our first "date," sort of. We were watching the movie at Marshall's apartment one summer night with some friends, and eventually Marshall went to bed, and Dantzel and Johnny fell asleep on the couch and the floor, respectively. Geoff and I stayed up all night long talking, (the first time we really really talked) and eventually went to the park across from the Provo temple and watched the sun come up. We went back to the apartment, afraid that Dantzel and Johnny had woken up and were mad that we'd stranded them, but they were still asleep. Johnny was horrified that he had broken BYU housing rules and spent the entire night in the same room as a girl! He asked us to drop him off around the corner from his grandma's house, where he lived, so he could pretend he'd just been out for a morning jog. He he he! Dantzel and I called him Johnny McNaughty after that. Ha ha, Good old Johnny Chaston, he was so fun, we loved him.

Geoff and I agreed to go home and get some sleep, then we met up again and went to Salt Lake later that afternoon.

Actually, I think there was one other time that we stayed up all night talking - Geoff and his friend Ricky were at my apartment watching a movie, and everyone went to bed except me, Geoff, and Ricky. Ricky was coming down with an ear infection and sat there in the banana chair, miserable as ever, and said nothing as Geoff and I chatted it up into the night. Poor Ricky. He really sacrificed that night, lol. I can't remember which came first, The Burbs night or the Ricky's ear infection night. Anyway.

Hard to believe this was all more than five years ago! And now we've been married for four! Time has really flown.

You guys are so cute.
Thanks for sharing that.
PS. Andy added a few of his own funny misconceptions to his latest blog too, just in case you wanted to check it out again. :)
