almost a year ago i stood by my bestie’s side as she become a mrs.
today, i’ll be standing at the finish line as she becomes a triathlete.
SO proud of her.
…next year: ???
catch me if you can.

the oracle.
confession time: i’ve turned into the crazy cat lady.
except he’s a dog.
and smaller than a cat.
the other night i found myself peppering my pup with questions…
like he’s really gonna tell me:
what to eat?
who to date?
when to sleep?
he’s not the oracle. he’s a dog. and it was clearly waaaaay past my bedtime.
first things first.
i love how when my dad and i talk on the phone the first thing he says (after hello) is ‘i love you.’
most people wait till the end of the conversation to slip in the sentiment, but not baba.
it’s the first thing out of his mouth when he sees me, as well.
i love that he’s the reason i love books. he gifted me more love than i ever knew was possible and with other people’s words.
i’ve never had a bigger fan or a more emphatic cheerleader.
i don’t know how i got so lucky.
..but i’m damn grateful for my great fortune.
i love you back.
engaging.
i went to an engagement party recently & for the first time in a long time i was struck by wonder at how perfect this particular couple is for each other. it’s rare to find someone you can tolerate on a regular basis, but seeing what these two share was beyond inspiring…i feel special and honored to be a part of their circle in this exciting time.
they are without a doubt, two of the most hilarious people i’ve ever been around. and they completely balance that out with their unwavering loyalty & completely solid foundation. it’s endearing.
i am positive they’ll keep each other on their toes & laughing throughout the years. and i’m thrilled that two special people have found an equally special partner.
i am well aware i’m getting waaaay ahead of myself, but i’m already completely obsessed with their unborn children.
a big heartfelt congrats to my lovely friend.
first things first though, convincing her it’s necessary to have me in a tutu pirouetting down the aisle at her wedding…
