this is when Jodi met with Travis at Starbucks and got the book of Mormon and the diddling in the parking lot...

Jodi later said she felt "maybe just a little deflated." She was also a little disappointed in herself, having never been intimate that quickly before. She later said she got a voice mail from Travis, in which he expressed misgivings about the experience.
re bold - surrrre... Jodi... and I have a bridge to sell you!!

Travis' friends believe Jodi twisted her tale to make Travis the sexual aggressor when in reality, they believed, it was actually the other way around. While by all accounts Travis had been a virgin well into his twenties, Jodi had lost her virginity as a teenager and had been sexually active ever since. Josh Denne, a good-looking friend of Travis's, said he met Jodi around the very time Travis did and couldn't help but notice she gave off a very sexual vibe. Josh said, "she would just put out that "Look, I'm available... how ya doin'? I'm interested" type of energy about her." Josh said Travis was "a babe in the woods" sexually. He had never been exposed to women who used sex as a tool, so he was likely blind to what Josh was picking up on.
That I believe about Travis being "a babe in the woods" about how Jodi played him! :gaah:
from Page 121: (Okay - I've never read this before - sky's account of what happened after the baptism, which took place at the LDS church in Palm Desert (Jodi's town).
...After the ceremony, the two went back to her house - {now wasn't that a motel in her testiphony?}, began to kiss, and got intimate again.
Sky was at the baptism that day and said it was an awkward ceremony, with not many people in attendance. But, more than that, she doubted Jodi's recollection was accurate. She seemed to recall Travis going back to her house after the ritual, contradicting Jodi's version. Sky note that Jodi's vivid juxtaposition of religious and sexual rites seemed designed to inspire anger against Travis and sympathy for her. Jodi's absurd anecdote wasn't just about anal sex; it was anal sex after a baptism, a sacred ceremony.
from page 143: (interesting!! again I've never read this before!)
For one thing, sky felt increasingly uncomfortable with what she saw as Jodi's calculated attempts to make Travis jealous. Sky got the impression that Jodi wanted Travis to think that other men were pursuing her, so that Travis would know he had competition and commit to marrying her before she got away. Sky said one time, at a hotel, Jodi kept walking past an open door where a group of men were involved in a business meeting. "She goes down to where the door's open, flips her hair, primps in front of the mirrors and walks back and she does it like a couple of times," Sky recalled. "And I'm like 'What's she doing?' This is bizarre. And she's like, 'Oh my gosh, that guy won't leave me alone. I think he's going to talk to me... If he talks to me, tell him I'm Travis Alexander's girlfriend.' So a guy comes out, talks to her, and she looks at me and I say, 'Oh, she has a boyfriend.' And, then after he leaves she says, 'Why didn't you tell him I am Travis Alexander's girlfriend?' Why would it matter? It was just really weird. She was so possessed... If he left the room, she would ask, "Where's Travis? Where's Travis? Where'd Travis go?' It was disturbing."
that's it for now! Will read more tonight, and if anything interesting pops up or I've never read/seen it before I shall post!
