Last month sometime, Melissa and Starr and I planned this roadtrip to Burlington. It was my death day adventure. Our only goal was to get Adrian's. They wanted to try it because I talk about it so much... ha! Highlights included so much coffee I started shaking, listening to All Time Low, Fall Out Boy and The Pussycat Dolls the entire day, "We're in a minivan full of vaginas!", shitty McDonald's McGriddles, a stop to meet my fam, a jaunt through the old fish hatchery before we sugared up at Adrian's. Bryce stopped and met up with us at Adrian's before we went to Next Door Pub in Lake Geneva for pizza. (The 45 minute wait was totally worth the pizza.) And then we got to see Noelle! I got to spend an hour with my best friend in whole entire world and spent the rest of the day with all of my favorite people.
Honestly, the best way to mark the first anniversary of a bad event in your life is to DO SOMETHING FUN. The distractions you create to occupy yourself can either fill you up or drain you and I'm so happy I went with my gut to do something fun this year.
Padre, I miss you.
Momma, thank you for the open door (and for not embarrassing me in front of my friends).
Melissa and Starr, thank you for road tripping with me and letting me show you where I grew up.
Noelle and Bryce, thank you for sticking with my dumbass since high school.
Burlington, I'll be back soon. Promise.
