my first year at bonnaroo wasn’t what i excpected or hoped it would be. i was in shock. so much so that i couldn’t enjoy it the way i wanted. but the second go round was much different. especially the black keys show. other than ray, who will always be til the day i die, the most amazing live show i’ve ever attended, the black keys was the best time i’ve ever had at a show. it was that perfect moment where i was finally like YES!! this is bonnaroo!!! they were amazing and the very last song of the set was my absolute favorite. it was so unexpected and it sounded so perfect i just let go and danced my heart out. i loved every second of it and didn’t stop smiling the rest of the night. hell…i’m still smiling over that night!! 10 months ago

my son is definitely a teenager. he’s changing so fast these days, inside and out. he has his first ‘real’ girlfriend and i’m having a real hard time with that. he’s still a little boy to me. he’s started asking for money and actually taking the time to fix his hair and wear cologne. he’s such a great kid. i tell him that all the time. other than those precious baby days, this has been my favorite age. we hang out and have really awesome conversations and listen to the same music and i steal his clothes from time to time. he’s pretty awesome and i’m pretty lucky. 11 months ago

when i was 21 i got a job as an administrative assistant at UT. it was the perfect job. i loved my job for a really long time, and that’s lucky. i learned so much from the people and the years i spent there. so much of my life is there. workwise and other. i’m very thankful. 21 months ago

there was a girl who had the sweetest way about her. weeks, months, years even…of my life were spent on that webcam. that was our way. so many powerful and intense feelings. it makes me smile now, thinking about those times. all those smiles and typos and songs, they’ve stayed with me. and will forever. 21 months ago
