I can honestly say I was disappointed that Nessie couldn't stay over tonight. Not just because I wanted to sleep with her in my arms for the first time since she was the size of a child. Sure, I wanted that more than anything right now, but I had to respect Edward and Bella there. The main reason is that it's really messing with our plans tomorrow morning. Getting her will be backtracking. I don't mind getting her, but Quil and Embry are a little miffed. Seth and Leah don't mind, though. Leah's more than happy to go get her with me, needless to say it kind of freaks me out with how agreeable she has been. Seth's a little freaked out, too. I think his exact words were, "You are you and where did you take my sister?" I'm not going to argue with her. I'd rather enjoy this while I have it.

Well, if I can't see her tonight, might as well see if she's online. I signed in and sure enough, she was online.

RussetCanine: hey, sweetie
RussetCanine: wish you were here
EternalGoldielocks: Aww, me too!
EternalGoldielocks: Wish you were here, though! You should have seen Mom. She's so stressed out about this trip. She went through my pack about ten times before I gave in and got Alice and Jasper. They saved me.
RussetCanine: that's Bella for you
RussetCanine: I'm really excited about this trip
RussetCanine: so are the guys
RussetCanine: and I think Leah is more than the rest of us
EternalGoldielocks: Perhaps because she won't have to share a tent with any of you?
RussetCanine: could be
RussetCanine: it would explain her willingness to come along to get you in the morning
RussetCanine: the guys (minus Seth) are a little annoyed about the extra trip
RussetCanine: say it's really far out of the way
EternalGoldielocks: I'm really sorry about that.
EternalGoldielocks: Wish there was something I could do about it.
EternalGoldielocks: But you know Dad. And Mom.
RussetCanine: well, Leah and Seth will come along with me
RussetCanine: Quil and Embry can get over it and pack the car
RussetCanine: Leah bought a new tent for this, too
RussetCanine: it's nice
RussetCanine: like a 5-star version of a tent
EternalGoldielocks: Nice! We can sleep in luxury. You guys can sleep in the dirt.
RussetCanine: very funny
RussetCanine: my tent is nice, thank you
RussetCanine: Leah's is just nicer
EternalGoldielocks: I know! I'm just teasing you.
EternalGoldielocks: Can you hold on a second? There's something I have to do.
RussetCanine: sure
RussetCanine: I'll be here
EternalGoldielocks: Okay! Be right back!
