Key to my home, key to my HEART
Tomorrow night, Josh and Meredith are flying in for the weekend. We will recreate this moment. I had an extra set of keys made for my apartment so they can come and go as they please; however, I didn’t have an extra keychain. I KNOW. How could I not have an extra keychain? Doesn’t everyone…
“It only ends once – everything before that is just progress.”
Dear Lost, In the 36 hours since Sunday night, the internets have been abuzz with talk of you. Did you end the right way? Were people’s minds sufficiently blown? How accurate were our theories? Was the conclusion good enough? Mainly: are we satisfied? Lost, you were my favorite show I’ve ever watched, and gave me…
Things you are surely dying to know
And a good Monday morning to you. Yes, YOU. Thanks for being here! How are you today? After Friday’s post of sunshine and daisies and love, I spent the weekend in the same blissful state. I took long walks, had some good talks with friends, and bought a new pair of shoes that Karmen says…
More than enough
It’s Friday, and there’s no humidity in Colorado, and last night I walked 10 miles instead of my normal 7. I’ve hung out with friends (I have friends!) the last two nights in a row, and tomorrow I’m taking my family on a date. It’s a fantastic hair day and I’m caught up on “Lost”…
Dad jokes
I promise that one day I’ll get back to this poor, neglected little blog. In the meantime, my co-worker Brooks just asked me if I wanted a “knuckle sandwich,” and oh man, that made me laugh. Who coined that, anyway? Probably a dad.
Road trip recap
I drove to Kansas City this weekend – and you know what that means: On the road again from Annie Parsons on Vimeo. I’m sorry that the video was only 52 seconds long, but… no, you know what, no I’m not. That’s about all you need to be subjected to. Besides this (glorious) video, the…
Are you there, blog? It’s me, Annie.
Don’t worry, I’m still here. Not only am I HERE, but I am not depressed, despondent, or dead, either. On the contrary, I am very much alive! Thanks for being concerned, though, ye who have reached out. I guess I’m just taking my time living life these days. I have a new favorite song: “See…
Navigating
It’s feeling more and more difficult to use this space to express anything of substance. I used to pour my heart out onto this blog, exposed for all the world to see, my inner-most sentiments laid bare for any passerby to interpret however they wished. But in the three years that I’ve kept this site,…
Ellery says the darndest things
I have a friend named Emily. She is all sorts of lovely. Emily has a little sister named Ellery, and Ellery has a blog. Or, rather, their mom keeps a blog on Ellery’s behalf. Please. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to What Ellery Says. My favorites? This one. And this one. Here‘s another….
Bailing (water, and out of Nashville)
Now, you know I love me some Nashville, but two weeks is a long, long time to be away from home. After 14 days of suitcase-living, I will board a plane tonight, and head westward back to Denver. I am grateful for the time I’ve had here with my Tennessee family, but ready to get…
