when i made the awesome, and scary, and wild move west after college i had a panic attack on the drive.
i had no friends.
zero.
what would i do?
no one would ever be able to talk to me like chelsey, or kill me with her wit like york. know me like my sister. i had some pretty rad friends, and now, here i was, cruising down i70 excited, nervous, and freaked out about making this new journey without anyone by my side.
the next few months were rough. no job. no one to sit with me for endless hours drinking on various patios around the city. i was a sad sack. a weeping mess that acted like everything was amazing if anyone would call.
but then, something happened.
the friends came.
and now, i am so lucky.
these are just a few of the amazing women i now get to call friends.

i used to get a lot of sleep when i was moping around alone. now i'm pooped, over extended, my planner is a total disaster, and i'm so happy my heart could explode.
you all are a part of the life i made, the life i chose, the life i put together, and i am one lucky girl.
