Happy Birthday dear friend!

Today would have been Josie's 33rd Birthday. It's amazing how much you can miss someone. Or how much you realize you actually talk to someone until they're gone. No matter what age it happens.

I think I've said on here how much spring sucks for me. . . too many sad memories. . . and so many deaths occurred in a month and half's time. For someone with a great photographic memory, it really sucks.

If Josie was here today, I imagine these are some of the things I'd have talked to her about or emailed her. . .



  • I went to Jimmy Buffett on Tues night. It was awesome. . . I do wish it was an outside show, but an outside show in Iowa in April?? Not likely. But the day turned out beautiful and it was calling for rain. It was 8 years that day that Grandma Mona passed away, and I think she purposely made the clouds go away. How many times did we listen to Buffett on the boat at Mom and Dad's?? Good times. . . how much tequila have we drank through the years listening to Margaritaville??

  • Went on a date again. Great chemistry, but turned out to be a slightly creepy. . . which sucks. I know you told me to do Match, but after doing it like 4 years after you told me to do it, I can officially say it's not for me. . .but luckily I'm coming up on the 6-month mark without finding a relationship, so I'm getting 6 months free!! I keep seeing the commercials that say "More matches, more dates, more relationships, more marriages" and to that I say "Bullshit."

  • Boot camp at 5am is going well only took me 4 days to start walking and moving my arms without pain. . .

  • My friend Jen thinks I should highlight my hair for something new. . . do you remember all those times sitting on the roof at Presby and having Annemarie highlight my hair so we could get a tan too??

  • Rach moved out last Thurs. I hear every little noise in my house now. . . and have no idea why. Maybe because there's nothing downstairs now?!? If you even suggest I have a ghost, I will punch you.

  • You'd be proud of me. . . I haven't had an awkward friendship in like 3 years now. :)

  • Almost fell the other day. I did one of those running things, so as to not actually fall and do a somersault. I am smooth.

  • At Easter, Mom gave me all my old scrapbooks. The high school Disney/Universal Trip pictures were awesome. How many times did we go on the Tower of Terror??? Also, I don't remember letting you cheat off of me in Chemistry, but according to my yearbook, you did. :)

  • Miss you. Love ya!
