carrie friend

I enjoyed a lovely visit this summer.

Though there were many photos to choose from, I thought these best summed up our time.

This year marks ten years since we met.  It was eighth grade gym class and while standing in line to do pull-ups or some such thing, we figured out that we were on the same chapter of The Two Towers.

Time did some funky thing to us on this particular trip and we found ourselves fourteen again.  Nerdy, blabbing, laughing, girly fourteen again.  Like some cheesy, magic, awesome 80's movie.  It took my summer up several notches and turned my brain off of it's preschool channel.  I was very grateful.


Thank you C-Buck.  I miss our free and easy friendship that allows me not only to be myself but also to learn more about a side of me that I don't get to visit often.  Starring a girl that can do anything and nothing and feel just grand about it.  You remind me to bask in the little things.  Gummy coke bottles and sweat pants.  Lavender sachets and snacklemouth popcorn.  Cucumber water and Mary Poppins.

Thanks for making me those Aladdin pants.  And for being my Carrie friend that comes to visit and stops time for a while.  Feel free to do that again sometime.
