An "Overnight" Guest

Sometime Last Week

Jolyn: I need to be out of my place soon. Can I come stay with you for one night while I'm in transition?

Eli: I feel like this is a trap.

Jolyn: Kthanks! I'll be over in a minute!

A Terrifying Minute Later

Jolyn: Moving all my stuff in is HARD WORK.

Eli: WHY are you moving all of your stuff in?

Jolyn: Can you believe we finally LIVE TOGETHER?!

Eli: Now when you say "live together," do you mean--

Jolyn: Going to bed! Goodnight!

Day One

Jolyn: It's so convenient that Rebecca left all of her stuff here for me to use!

Eli: How do I keep ending up in this situation?

Day Two

Jolyn: Do you think this painting goes well on this wall?

Eli: Why are you hanging your things on the wall?

Jolyn: Oh. To cover up the damage.

Eli: What dam--

Jolyn: WE SHOULD GET A DOG!!!

  3. I think it is telling that she "needed" to leave her last home, as if she was chased out by people with torches and pitchforks. Might want to get that little part cleared up before you find yourself needing to crash on Bob & Cathie's couch because you too were forced from your home by court order.

  5. I think I speak for us all when I say we are staying tuned and there had better be regular updates on the new "JolEli" (celebrity mash up name) "roommate" situation.

    2. Eli, I don't think you understand the point of celebrity mash-up names. You have to include parts of BOTH people's names. Silly you only included your own! Oh my gosh do I have SO much to teach you!

  6. This is like those parts in TV shows that leaves us all on a cliff hanger as a season finalle! Seriously, I CANNOT WAIT to see what happens next! Such as: What if Rebecca comes back, to confess her unrequited love, and THERE is Jolyn - WEARING HER EARINGS!!! Or, in a wierd twist, Eli and Jolyn were actually married in Vegas and Eli is confused that they must live together now. Or, Eli fianally realizes this is the most awesome thing EVER and they get married in Vegas. (Please don't do that. I think Bob and Cathie might cry. I suspect they may be the type that would really like a big Mormon wedding. And I just couldn't bear it if your awesome sunny happy mother would be all disappointed and cry. Bob might have to beat you.)
    Anyhow. Can't wait to see how this all pans out!!!!!!

    1. Cliffhangers!!! da-da-dum!!! Love the "such as:". A different twist, Jolyn ends up with Disney Prince Hair Brandt, and they don't want to move out. Daniel comes for a visit and does a Jolyn move and stays forever. Eli is stuck with three roommates one of which is more twisted than him, the other of course has Disney Prince Hair, and Daniel clothes on Eli again.

  11. Oh dear. I'm both excited and terrified for you both. Can't wait to hear more shenanigans - hopefully harmless.

  12. *GASP* Has Jolyn read the Ray Blackston books?! Oh, she is the sneakiest...Eli, just don't let her talk you into throwing a tangelo off the roof, okay?
    But seriously, am I the only one who thought of those books when she said "tangelo"?
