The airport shop clerk says, “Hello superstar, it’s good to see you for the first time.” I smile and say, “And it’s probably the last time, too.” He responds with, “The first and last goodbye. Like the movie. We could make it a long kiss goodnight.” I reply, “We could, but it’s not going to happen.” #whatismylife

Dreaming of next year, being Smith Mom and living in a yellow house with a white picket fence, studying, running, Argentina, fishing, reading, Alaska, and all the yet unknown adventures
This is how I started off being 23. It’s been pretty amazing so far. :) Can’t wait for the next 364 days!
Simply because this is unbelievable and funny!

My friend Stephanie posted this on her Instagram yesterday and wrote, “Social media = full time job.” Lately, it feels like I couldn’t agree more. Which gets me to thinking that it might be nice to cut all ties with the cyber world. And here I am putting this thought right where I want to cut all ties. Irony, no?
Hahaha!
