i should have bought more sweaters

so i've been watching felicity lately (i'd like to thank blockbuster online for facilitating my guilty pleasures) and i decided that i directly blame this show for my unsuccessful college career. it definitely set up unrealistic expectations for what college life really was. i also blame my so-called life because that show was so much like high school that i had a reason to think it was in any way accurate. i think the connection is in how similar the music is in the two shows. oh and it's definitely emotional fornication, just for the record. oh and i never knew janeane garofalo was sally. and now that i've noticed that the entire show is side-lit, i can't stop thinking about it.

okay a note about this weekend. it was so good to see aaron and dan. there are really only two or three people with whom i can just pick up where we left off and it's amazing. low maintenance friendships are definitely the new pink. there's a level of comfort that can only come from over 10 years of friendship or 5 years + dorm life. so it was good to catch up and talk about jesus and drink too much and update each other on the lives of the people we still keep in touch with. driving with matt wasn't too stressful (i was worried)...in fact i wish we would have talked more. i'm still afraid of his reaction when i get honest. the wedding was beautiful but un-organized and mchenry really won't ever be the same which is sad but good.

i'm thinking it's good that everything is changing right before i leave. it'll be easier to have the bottom fall out of my expectations than to feel really comfortable with how things are then come back to something strange.

also - my brother is as tall as me.

oh and as we're crossing the street, all dressed up in wedding clothes, aaron stops me and gets down on one knee and pretends to propose to me. much laughter ensues and cars start honking and yelling. so then he pretends that i said yes and the cars really go nuts, (but really probably just wanted us to get out of the way) and we walk away holding hands. jess said i should have slapped him and ran away. maybe next time.
