When Evan finished his first semester of—official—nursing school, I did a little celebratory dance for the occasion. And—of course—I watched the video over and over, because I'm addicted to that laugh. The beginning of this journey feels like so. long. ago. Because it's been a really long journey—this whole Evan-in-Nursing-School thing. He has worked nights… Continue reading my favorite laugh.

This weekend has been brutal. Why? Oh, because my whole Texas-dwelling family was privileged enough to attend the Austin City Limits Festival. Brutal? Because I couldn't be there with them. Convincing my brother to go see Pretty Lights: ...and getting back a rave review. Having texts sent throughout the days of favorite songs by favorite… Continue reading we embrace our love/friendship and go.
just drop your dress a little bit…
When I lived in Australia, Skyping with my family was the sunshine for me. Seeing my family was great, needed... but my daddy really stole the stage. He would have a pile of props [unseen from the shot] and use them in a conversation filled with more puns than your own dad has used in… Continue reading just drop your dress a little bit…

girls just wanna get stabbed.
I saw a question the other day, asking, "If you could have dinner with three people [dead or alive] who would they be?" Well, besides my beautiful friends and family that I'm always down for dinner with, I would choose Tina Fey, Miranda July and... well, I don't know who the third is yet. Thank… Continue reading girls just wanna get stabbed.

[all names have been changed to protect the fabulous.] The Boulder/Denver heat was exhausting. And after frolicking in the streets during the almost twilight hour after seeing The Head and The Heart: And then waking early to enjoy loved ones galore via delicious brunch, the farmer's market and Buffalo Exchange... we were pooped. [some of… Continue reading you poopin’?

Easter was a success. Especially because I received this card in the mail... I love my family. And, yesterday, I got to wear my yellow Easter dress... Oh, taking pictures of myself... by myself.

it’s okay if your shoes aren’t doing it…
I got a text message yesterday morning, that read: "You are going to crack up when you see the cover of the daily!" My first thought was, Oh, no this cannot be good.

Sitting in the living room with Evan, we're both decompressing, thinking aloud... then Evan asks... - Do you want something to drink? - Yeah, I need some juice in my life. - I'll make some.

something horrible happened in the bathroom…
I feel like I could write a novel about my trip to Las Vegas this past weekend. My friends Emma and Trask got married. WHOA. They decided about a week before Saturday that they wanted to get married and do it in Vegas. Originally, they wanted to get married in Vegas because there would be… Continue reading something horrible happened in the bathroom…
