Adventures In: Being SUPER excited!!

Hello pals. I am so super excited today. Let me tell you why

• It's Friday
• It's nearly 60 degrees outside, hello crazy Indiana weather!!
• I'm going to Evansville tonight
• I'm road tripping there with my boyfriendy
• I'm staying at my besties all weekend
• I'm seeing my other bestie and her babies this weekend
• I'm finally celebrating Christmas with my mom and sister
• I talked to Jonathan (my handsome, smart, hilarious 3 year old 'nephew') on the phone last night, and he melted me heart into a giant puddle. "I get to see you this weekend" Me "YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" Him. His excitement was so very sweet. He kept telling me how happy he was to see me, and called me his best friendy which is so cute because I call everyone "friendy" or Brad my "boyfriendy". Then he wowed me with his smartness. He sang me the ABC's and I know most kids at that age sort of mumble/smash together the LMNOP part, not J Man. He sang it clear as day! Then he was telling me about the car accident he was in, and I said "Did Daddy get his car fixed yet", he replied with, "Me and Daddy were thinking there is no way it can be fixed". Seriously? SERIOUSLY. So cute/funny/smart!!! He also sang me the IU fight song, which of course made this Hoosier girl proud!!! :)  Hence the IU logo at the top of this blog that I can't seem to figure out how to move.
• I figured out that Butch Walker produced one of my favorite Taylor Swift songs. That made the music nerd/Butch Walker lover/Taylor Swift fan girl in me super excited! 

Okay that's all for now from me!

I hope everyone has an amazing weekend!!

Adventures In: Educating The Masses

Educating the masses. Yup. This is what my bestie, Webby and I call it when we drive with the windows down with Butch Walker music on. More people needed to know about him. End of story. He is amazing.

I've seen him 4 times in 2 years. Too few if you ask me. I'm already anxious for him to announce a fall tour. I've seen him mostly in the fall, so let's hope he tours this fall too.

Anyway. To the point. Webby has a 4 year old son. Today we were all three in the car educating the masses, when sure enough from the backseat we hear a tiny little voice singing right along. WIN!!!!! This isn't totally new for him, but it's a memory I want to hold on to.

I'm going to miss those moments when I move 4 hours away in 21 short days. I'm (almost) crying just thinking about it. Ok. Webby, shut up. I AM crying now. Webby and her son are two of the people I hold the closest to my heart. It's going to be really hard to not have moments like that with them at least once a week. For the last several months I've spent more time with them than I have at my own apartment. I know they support my move, and I know I'm doing to for the right reasons, but it's hard too. I'm gonna be a giant puddle of tears when I say goodbye to them. I'm horrible at goodbyes. HORRIBLE. They break my heart. I'm glad Webby is one of the toughest chicks I know. She won't make it worse by crying too. She'll just laugh at me and call me a vagina. Gosh.... What am I going to do with out her.
