Walking in the halls of a high school five years after your graduation date is uncomfortably strange.

I feel like I should be in a walker right now or something. I'm an old lady!

However, seeing my most favorite teacher ever was SO beyond worth it.

She was my favorite for a reason.

I have not seen her in about 3 years, yet she picks back up and talks with me like no time at all has passed. She is also BEYOND real and VERY brutally honest, which is a quality I not only respect in another but a quality I really do envy.

Either way...it is weird that a lady I have not seen in years can really make me think of the important things present in my life at the moment. She truly has a gift and I am lucky to have had the opportunity to know her.

I will take it all in. It is all already starting to process. It's harsh, but oh-so necessary. 

virtuti fortuna comes.

The feather is finally healed! It definitely needs quite the session of a touch-up though. Now, my brother and I just need to convince my papa into getting the family motto somewhere...then, we will be one happy, matching tattooed family! 

mini mountain adventure.

Ahhh, just what I needed this weekend.

The drive up was extremely scary due to the blizzard, but I made it safe and sound.

I seriously needed some best friend time; where opinions are never bias, intentions are always pure, and the truth can hurt but is brutally honest.

Random tattoo adventure was a must, apparently. I love the sketchy spontaneous tattoos!

Pictures soon of the Casa Bonita experience on the drive back home. 

My face and stomach STILL hurt from laughing for like 3 hours straight.   

scary study monster dressed in plaid.

This is how 2 weeks of college catch-up makes me feel!

Scary, I know!

I have obviously been in this same spot for 12 hours now, without a shower or any other form of standard human hygiene. 

potty breaks.

The worst part of this spring storm is having to take the pup out to potty in this weather. 

The 9 news camera "captures" the white-out. But, you can't really tell since it is a white-out.

Oh, Colorado...your weather is able to get substantially worse by the minute. 

Ridiculous! 

wife swap.

SO ENTERTAINING!!! 

Thank you to Ellen for my yummy sandwich for lunch! Such a good hostess. 

zappos.

I have now discovered this site (thanks, Paul...not!) and am going to be sucked in looking at things I cannot afford and don't need all day long.

Also, Nudie jeans...I want a pair!

And this.

goodnight world.

We love you!

caught up.

I call it a fluke, a fluke that I will ignore and disregard it's occurrence. 

Mistake even. 

The streak is still alive and well!

Going away this weekend will be nice. 

Homework date tonight and tomorrow. Mountains on Saturday. I can't wait to see my best and have one of our notorious mini-adventures. I have missed it!

too long.

I wish I wrote more. Maybe bits and pieces will make it here in the near future. I just can't seem to take my mind off of school. I feel like a robot.

A little bit and piece for now...

I am happy. Incredibly happy. Even though the situation is tricky, I smile wide and often. 

But, being stuck in the past can be tiresome. 

I would hope that you still aren't...
