Travis: You're a philistine.
Becky: (laughter)
Travis: Its not a compliment so don't laugh.

Spiritual Action, a black guy and Adam Sandler??

Travis: I just, I just want some action.
Becky: What kind of action?
Travis: You know, action-action. Like the spiritual kind. Everyone wants spiritual action, especially if it's like the intimate kind (chuckles).
Becky: (laughing)
Travis: I had a thought, but I don't want to tell you because you'll laugh at me. Because, I mean, you always make fun of me and the black guy with his beard. Oh see, I knew you would laugh. I didn't mean that kind of action, I meant a gun action.
Becky: Oh Travis, I can't breathe (laughter).
Travis: I am CPR and First Aid Certified. So is the black guy with a beard, but I wouldn't let him help you, because, well...
Becky: What? Because he's black?
Travis: Well (Guffaws) Yes and kind of no. He's nice, but he's not even real. I mean, I guess he could be, but he's in my mind so I guess I must have seen him or something.
Becky: Or it could be your imagination.
Travis: EW! Uh!! I just had another thought but I'm not telling you. EWWW!
Becky: What?
Travis: All I'm gonna say is Adam Sandler would be happy. UGH!
(Pause)
Travis: That is a lot of money.

Rocking chair

Travis fell asleep during out pillow talk again. He finished a coherent sentence and then several minutes later whispered in my ear, "What's that rocking chair doing here?"

What was I doing?

January 2 · Edited ·

I layed down and reached over to turn off my light and Trav seriously popped out of bed. Like up in the air, then walked over to the door and then turned and looked at the TV, pointed at it, and continued to stare at it.
Me: What are you doing?
Travis: I don't know. I forgot what I was doing.
Me: Brushing your teeth?
Travis: 'oh yep' (Walks to bathroom door and starts limp fishing the door handle). 'It won't open.' Finally comes back in and sits down and stares at his phone.
Becky: Oh man I can't believe how you just popped out of bed like that.
Travis: (he started crying) I could just see the bubbles in the bath and I knew you just went to bed.
(Begins playing with his phone)
Travis: what was I doing?
Me: Setting your alarm?
Travis: oh yeah. Where's my plugger in thing?

A few minutes later

Travis: Remember the time change like ten years ago?
Me: WHAT are you talking about?
Travis: you know when the time changed and you were wearing a skirt?
Becky: (Seriously friends I was laughing so hard I wanted to puke) 'I need oxygen!'
Travis: (laughs) that's funny! It happened like five or ten years ago. If you could see what I am thinking you would understand.

Travis: I have a question. What time do we have to be there tomorrow?
Becky: At the movies?
Travis. WHAT?!

*Wow, I really wish I had a good recorder or something. I know I forgot part of that conversation. It lasted 45 minutes at least.

Save my spot?

Travis: (sniffing the air)
Becky: It's my lotion you can smell
Travis: You're welcome
Becky: For what?
Travis: You know. You're lotion
Becky: You didn't give it to me, Brilee did.
Travis: This is as far as I get up or my back will break in half.

(Travis actually woke up for a few minutes at this point while I was trying to get my phone to record him)

Travis: I can see you looking at me when my eyes are closed.
(Closes eyes and then opens them again)
Travis: See, I can see you with my eyes closed. I knew you were looking at me.
Becky: OK
Travis: I'm thirsty
Becky: Go get some water
Travis: Do you promise you won't steal my spot?
Becky: Nope.
