Friends In Pictures

This was last week's challenge, but just ended Sunday so I feel like I can throw this in the mix.

Besides, it's my blog and i'll blog what I want to.

The Will Hoge concert with Caley was awesome. Not a huge crowd, but some great fans nonetheless. We got to talk to him and he's a pretty awesome guy.

Caley and I enjoyed the show, then got the chance to talk over chili cheese fries, funnel cake and caramel apples (did I mention it was at a fair?).

It was really comforting to hear that we shared some of the same fears right now, about approaching the end of our undergrad years, feeling inadequate in the classes that are supposed to be our passion, and dealing with life's unexpected turns among other things.

Even though I still have all these grown-up thoughts and more swirling around in my head, I know I have an ally out there, willing and ready to back me up because ten years ago we had slumber parties together and played "Chubby Bunny" all night.

Good Friends and Good Music

After a long week of calling old friends and getting updated on their lives, I am now taking my challenge even a step further.

No petty phone calls here...tonight I am driving an hour and a half to the Anderson County Fair to visit my friend Caley.

When I called her this week she suggested going to a concert together to give us a chance to hang out and catch up while enjoying some awesome music together.

Caley is one of those people whom I always feel grateful to have around. She is probably one of my oldest friends. I remember the days when we would ride bikes around the neighborhood after middle school, and I am pretty sure I went trick-or-treating with her until we were way too old to dress up and ask for candy.

Tonight should be fun, but strange too, as we have always been good friends but have had limited outings in the past few years.

I am hoping that tonight will give us the opportunity to re-establish the great relationship we used to have.
