'The Lost Years'

My wonderful plans of entering the blog world apparently hit the fan.  When you start a blog and succeed in writing one blog post before taking a 3 year break, you realize there is the potential you weren't created for it.  However, when you decide to randomly re-read your one post (to see how funny you were of course) and a stranger has commented on it, you immediately convince yourself that you have deprived the bloggers of the world for way too long.  So I am happy to announce that I'm giving it another go.  Two jobs, two houses, and a husband later, and I'm ready to make up for 'The Lost Years'.

As girls, there is no telling what will set us off.

But for some reason we never seemed to have those on hand growing up, so it was always a tea towel. So in traditional family style, we were both sitting on the couch with our tacos, tea towels, and AB...

Just one word of warning though. There will be quite a few stories that involve tears. Some from joy, some from grief, some from pure shock, but mostly just tears from the realization that this is life after college. This is everything your parents and teachers tried to warn you about that you either chose not to listen to, or, you really did have such a rose colored picture of what 'the future' would look like that you thought they were making it more dramatic than it really is. Well, 3 1/2 years removed from the 'best years of my life,' as most would call the college experience, I can honestly say that no one and nothing could have prepared me for life. I hope you enjoy as I reminisce some moments of adulthood. 'Crying in Kroger' Date: the night before school starte...
