I hear the secrets that you keep.

(Me and Jared at Washington Monument)

Two nights ago I woke up to Jared laughing loudly in my ear. I asked him what was so funny and he said “hot dogs.” I asked him why he thought hot dogs were so funny and he told me “it’s just so fun to get all wrapped up and pretend you’re a hot dog.” It was one of the oddest things I’ve heard Jared say so I asked him if he was awake. He told me he was awake and then instantly fell into a deep sleep. I hope Jared isn’t dreaming of hot dogs because I never let him eat them for dinner.

On another subject – the following is a note that Jared and I passed back and forth yesterday about our dinner and Halloween plans:
Jared: What are we going to make for supper?
Me: We have shrimp and greens...and rice or potatoes
J: Yes!
Me: You don’t even like shrimp
J: Yes I do
Me: Baa
J: Bou you
Me: Psshshhs
J: I don’t hate shrimp ok
Me: Whatev
J: Apple Crisp
Me: If you help me peel apples
J: Of course. What do you think this is?
Me: You know
J: You’re gonna get it

Me: HA. You better listen now. I’m not scared of you
J: You will be. You will be.
Me: Happy almost Halloween. I love you. You better not get me Nacho. Because you love me and you love shrimp especially at restaurants
