So last time I was together with all of the crew was in January right before surgery. It was long overdue and we loved every minute of it. I can't seem to get enough...Lance thought it would be a genious idea to snag a photo of our faces in a circle. He said he's never been a part of one and it's been a life goal or somewhere along those lines; as you can tell we went along with it. Can't believe summer is coming to an end.
So although I love summer with a fiery passion because it's amazing in all it's sunny splendor in which I bask in daily. However I am desperately wanting some snow! I'm crazy, right?! I just really fell in love winter this last year. Well since it's not going to snow anytime soon I did the next best thing. Watched my fave show Gilmore Girls and snuggled up with my woobie and enjoyed them enjoying the first snow of the season. LOVE it! However it is nice knowing that I'll be laying out poolside for another several more weeks. xo
So I've been thinking that 23 was a good year and I lost a year with my surgery so I felt justified in not growing up yet. But I figured that part of getting older is having some class. So my friends it's time to embrace it. Here's to being 25! And here's to the inner child within all of us...we all want to stay young, right? Or is that just me ;)
I read my first ever Nicholas Sparks novel recently....it was the first one I've ever been able to make it through start to finish. {The Last Song} I was impressed. So attempted The Notebook and I made it to page 17 or so. I guess I just don't get it. You think I'd learn by now that I am not really in love with any of his books turned movies. I had a night where Dear John seemed like an innocent way to enjoy a girls night in. WRONG! SO wrong. I don't ever get it. Someone always dies. ALWAYS! I get that Sparks is a good author {right?} and that his writing is real and writes about real life but everything has death. I'm surrounded by death. Someone always dies. Love stories don't need to have death. Do they? I mean eventually but I guess the one thing about Sparks is that it's never too predictable I mean I know someone is going to die I just always spend my time consumed with thoughts and theories of who is going to kick the bucket. Ugh romance movies kill me! Never again! Okay maybe I'll cave sometime in the future but for now I'll stick with the bloody gory stuff.
Oh brother!! I know I know I've been in a blogging coma for a bit. But it's because well remember my last post? Well the wind died down and the sun came out!! So in honor of today being the longest day...and the start of summer I thought I'd post!
I thought I'd share this lil gem with you. As you well know I love Ellen and she introduced me to this video. Oh it made me laugh. And than it made me think of some of my recent adventures.
I went to the Summer Jam a few weeks ago with Rachel. It had been rainy but we were hopeful it would hold off until the end of the evening. (the concert was outdoors) Well no such luck...I'm not sure if the universe was on our side that night or not but I think it's for the best that we didn't stick it out even though it was a down pour. We had some good laughs because we realized we were a little old to be in attendance. Between the girls that were dancing in the rain in nothing but a string bikini {when she just shouldn't have} to the ankle monitors and the cloud of smoke resonating over our heads it's for the best that we bailed early. The smell of weed was getting to be a lil much...
"I wish I were rich,and I could spend the whole summer at a hotel, eating ice cream and chicken salad."
I promise once you start reading it does get better! PROMISE! I had ankle surgery recently and so the last while it's been a lot of my youtube findings, self pity, and random posts. While not in recovery mode I enjoy filling my days with work, friends, baking, traveling, biking, and the gym! Stick around and see what it is that brings me JOY!
