just the C

...The good time that made us laugh...

First of all. Tonight’s dinner was somewhat bittersweet although I have a feeling that I may see her between now and Friday-(potentially?) But my good buddy, Andrea is leaving. She’s leaving Raleigh to be with her fiance’ for a month then they are heading to CA.

I added this song (Click the title), because it’s:

 A) somewhat relevant to the message I’m trying to convey in this post. but most importantly:

 B)  to lighten the load of one of my best’s moving across the country and to:

 C) give my girls from home a chuckle at the fact that this IMMEDIATELY took me back to middle school dances from 3-6…PM (*Yes..we had school dances right after school).

For Serious:

I wrote a little note in some books that I returned to Andrea this past weekend that said that I could not be “happier about this phase of her life,” and I mean EVERY word of that. I’m SO sad about the idea of Andrea not being within an arm’s reach from me, but the guy she’s marrying, well, he’s just great, so how can I argue with that?.. I genuinely couldn’t be happier for the two of them.

I plan on visiting. 

I know that I’ll see Andrea between now and time for the wedding (my good friend, and her sister-Lauren is having a baby in March), but things just seem so ‘final’ now. I’ve been avoiding this moment in my head, but knew that this day was going to come sooner rather than later.

So Andrea, as I mentioned in my note..I couldn’t be happier for you and this next phase of your life. (Definitely can’t wait to celebrate in September!)

Just tell your new gfs in CA that they have some big shoes to fill (not that they can replace us by any means) for your girls in Raleigh.

Just. Sayin.

Love. Crys.

Say it Ain’t So…

Friday psunny_clouds_r graphic75°

You could slap me three times and I wouldn’t slap you back because it’s supposed to be 75 degrees today. There’s no reason for me to NOT have a smile on my face.

Even if it’s short lived. I’ll take it.

Yay Weekend!

**I’m sure you guys are getting your fill of people talking about the weather on FB, Twitter, etc. but it’s worth mentioning.

PT Cruisers, Minivans and Civics, OH MY!

The tailgating has GOT to stop…seriously:

PTC drivers-why the eff do you have this vehicle anyway?

Minivans (Moms)-you’re carrying precious cargo—why the eff are you tailgating?

Civics-is there some kind of complex with you guys or what?

I’m just saying…I’m going just as fast as you are—tailgating on the beltline, and at stoplights isn’t a good look. Besides, I shouldn’t be raging with hostility on my drive into work and I shouldn’t have to “calm down” on my walk into the building either. I’ll be the first to admit that I should expect tailgating of some sort when I leave AT 8 am heading into Raleigh, but goodness..for your sake and the sake of my bumper. LAY OFF.

**If anyone I know drives one of these vehicles..I’m sorry…

Happy Valentine’s Day!
Love Ya’ll.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Love Ya’ll.

Happy-ish.

Little things that have made me smile a wee bit so far this week:

1. Fish nets and suede booties.

2. Getting home before the sun goes down.

3. Leaving home before 8 am for # 2 to happen.  (I should work on making this a daily occurrence).

4. Having someone tell the receptionist at work to tell me that I was very pretty and that I had flawless skin.

    **Note: I noticed a sweet blemish on my cheek not even an hour after she told me this.

    **She “forgot” if this was a guy that told her this or just the other receptionist that mentioned it. FAIL!

 Happy-ish. Right?

Fail. Neglect.

I’m a whole 2 entries in on this blog thing, and I’ve been HORRIBLE about writing things so far. I’ve got lots of good stuff on the brain but have had no time to write the things I’ve been wanting to write about. Womp-ity. Womp.

Stay tuned, ya’ll. Don’t bail on me yet.

Disclaimer: This will not be the theme of my blog by ANY means, but to me this is genius and has solidified my “HYPE” for the Super Bowl.

Go Pack Go!

In case you were wondering…

Why Just the C you ask?

I was having no luck with a blog name and was beginning to put the idea of even writing one out of my mind, when my friend Shannon, just out of the blue (but relative to our conversation) says: “What about ‘just the C?’

I went with it.

And it’s actually quite fitting I think. 

Carry on.
