grilled cheese

I would be lying if I told you that I didn't enjoy a good grilled cheese sand which. I love it, and for the past 13 days I have been craving it, ever single day. Don't ask me why, I mean can anyone ever explain cravings?

"I want a girrrled cheese........" (yes I say it that way, ever since I was a tot) Oh and I also dab my little craving in ketchup.....do you do that? I love it, my daddy taught me to eat it that way. 

Any who, friends I'm sorry I've been neglecting 30 for 30, but please be aware that last weekend I went home. Back to my friends and family, one friend in particular, Ali. Boy do I love her, and everything that comes with that bundle of joy. I met a couple new friends too, so that was nice. Everyone time I leave that beauty of school she goes to, it makes me wonder why I didn't apply last fall. I mean I would have had my best friend, a beautiful campus, and the life I wish I had. I guess the decision I made then, was the decision I was supposed to make. My senior year English teacher, Mrs. Dillon used to say, "You'll end up, where you're supposed to end up. No place is wrong, we each have the paths we are supposed to take in order to get to that one place." Those words has stuck with me since that day we had to write down were we would be attending in the Fall. While most of my friends chose big universities, something inside of me knew I wasn't ready. I was ready for college and all that came with it: the loads of work, new people, and for that oh so comforting bubble to be pulled away, but what I wasn't ready for was such a big step. As much as I wish I was ready at that time for all of that, I'm glad I chose where I went. I'm glad that someday I'll be able to look back and realize, I had it all. The small step and eventually the large university that I'll end up at. Wherever I do end up, it'll be the right time and place for me.

So, back to my craving......

Here we have one of the best grilled cheese sandwhiches.

This adorable little cafe downtown made it for me, and with this sparking orange juice. yum.

Last night after church, Kallie and I strolled down the street with ashes on our foreheads and avoided meat, this is what we ended up with.

you're gonna laugh

well for two reasons actually. One because I haven't written anything since last week. See when I decide to go home for the weekend, I usually do nothing but sleep and laugh. Sleep with my dogs, and veg.  And laugh with my best friend Ali. Literally all weekend we laughed. In many places actually, but we laughed which is the most important thing here.

And the second reason why you're going to laugh is because I missed my train. Yes, I missed it by literally 3 minutes. I'm a failure. I woke up so late, and threw everything in a large suitcase and was on my way. I was practically sleeping on the way there. I mean, a least I bought my ticket for the next train...which leaves at 6:24......Failure once again.


On a happier note, I'm crawling back into bed with my two favorite puppies. Time to introduce.

Winston and Ruckus.

Winston is the white fur ball.....

Ruckus is the golden beauty...

They are best friends.

aren't they just the cutest things ever? at least I think so....



Until later...

typical erica

yes, I said orbits. That's what Kallie called them as we walked through downtown today. I love all downtowns anywhere, they are just so wonderful. Shops of random things, with little trinkets and clothes. I grabbed some cool items today. This new lipstick, but it came in  Pencil...This is IT! (Fancy Red) I love it so much...oh and I also snatched a cool sweater from Urban Outfitters. Gosh I love that store. yeah yeah i know I' not supposed to buy anything for another 20 days...but I had to. 

Besides my spree, gelato, and espresso I inhaled, some things got me a little flustered today.

You know what I hate, is when people change. When you know deep down they are still somewhat who they used to be but on the outer layer it's so different. I just want to rip off the layer and take them back. Especially when it's someone you love so much, and care so deeply for. Love can make you do insane things, it really can. As much as you try, trying to stop loving someone is impossible. Yeah sure you can back away a little, but it's never going to make things easier. Love isn't temporary. I just isn't. Please come back person who I'm thinking of, please do. Eventually...please?

Enough of that. Guess 

what I'm doing tonight? 

Making a Tutu for Kallie. All these cool bright colors, and pins, and elastic. I love doing crafts. I just love it.

OHHHHH and that bag I'm holding, the leather one? Yeah man, thrift store find once again. 

I'll leave you with this, don't just walk away from someone you love, even if  you think you should. 

Just don't.

love love her

bad lighting

This might possibly be the worst photo shoot mans ever seen. I'm not kidding. It's bad, but it's my fault. I waited till after the sun was already going down to say.. "Hey Kal....we should get some pictures.." 

She's such a doll for putting up with me, she really is. But who wouldn't want to put up with me? Ok, I'm totally kidding. Ha.

 I can't believe tomorrow is already Wednesday. I love Thursdays, it really gives you something to look forward too. Oh and I guess it's cool because I have no school. Also a bigggie plus. 

You know who I'm slowly falling in love with? I already had a little crush on him, but now this crush is in full force. Griffin House. The music is so amazing. His voice is pure heaven, so soothing. Loook!

I need to do laundry tonight. I'm going to take my little backpack, and go to the laundry mat. You know the weird thing about college is, laundry mats. I love them. It's actually a nice place to study, it's not the quietest place but for some reason I love going there. Luckily, our town had a clean one. Bahh.

Oh one last thing before I let you click away to whatever you were doing, see my cool backpack?

It's from the Thrift Store! Isn't it cute? I love it oh so very much. Tomorrow I'll show you my other cool one, i love stuff like that. I love thrift stores actually. 

Toodles.

I'll leave you with this, a little digging leads you to treasures.

xoxo

these bad boys, are my new obsession.
