Friday night Tara, Joslyn, Travis and I were watching 17 Again after work. It was meant as a girls' night but Travis is amazing and wiley and managed to weasle his way into playing with us. I was on the couch waiting for some water I had on the stove to start boiling, not really paying attention to it, just waiting to eat some Mac and Cheese like a normal starving college student who can't afford a more gourmet meal. I don't know how long I had been sitting there when all of the sudden Travis turned towards me, flung his arm out and whacked me in the eye. He managed then to grab my arm like he had originally planned to and say in a very calm, reassuring voice "Don't worry, your kitchen is on fire, but I got it." Ok...I'm not worrying. Wait, WHAT?!?!?!
As I rushed into the kitchen after Travis with a stinging eye I saw a giant flame engulfing the pot on the stove. In all his manlyhood and glory, Travis immediately picked up the pot of water and dumped it onto the greedy fire. With the fire put out and the three of us girls standing in awe and shock I realized that had Travis not been there I would not have known what to do with the fire. His courage did not go unnoted, I gave him a giant hug and told him that I planned on us being friends forever because of that.

Who is Travis and kiss him for saving your life will you?
Also, I wouldn't know what to do with the fire either b/c what if it was a grease fire? Then you would have died. Too bad he smacked you in the eye before he saved you though...it could have been a little more perfect.
