I know this is out of the blue...

Hey Blogosphere,

I know this is out of the blue…

But I still hate how things ended.

Can we meet for coffee?

It’s been a while, but after a long absence I am back to my old blogging ways. If you’re still reading this, I’m assuming that you’ve forgiven me for my disappearing act and agreed to a (virtual) coffee date. I’ll have tea because although I love the smell of coffee – I hate the taste. You might have remembered that. I know we don’t really know each other any more and that two years is a long time, so I’m going to recap all of the major changes since my last entry, so we can get back to that really, really good place.

Everyone on earth seemingly has an iPhone.

The general public seems to be less into vampires - I'm particularly pleased with this development, as it was a sad day when I realized that they was a “Teen Paranormal Romance” section at Barnes and Noble.

I changed jobs.

I moved, although I don't think its Internet safe to give details on where I've moved.

NBC made a show called The Playboy Club.

I broke up with my best friend and it broke my heart.

I turned 24.

NBC canceled The Playboy Club after three episodes.

I reconnected with a lot of childhood friends and realized what amazing people they’ve all grown to be.

I met Derek Jeter. I forgot I was going to be meeting Derek Jeter and I didn't look beautiful and we didn't fall in love - but I did get a picture.

I’ve buried loved ones.

I had a two-day crush on Rob Kardashian after watching him on one episode of Dancing with the Stars – the only one I’ve ever watched. I'm only slightly embarrassed.

My sister married one of the greatest men on earth.

I’ve avoided watching and forming an addiction to any shows involving real housewives or Honey Boo Boo Child.

I've showered roughly 730 times.

I fell in love with about a million people, places and things.

I tried to incorporate “ya’ll” into my vocabulary but it didn’t really work out.

I still spill all my secrets after drinking whiskey – but I’ll take all of yours to my grave.

My hair is long again.

I tried escargot.

I flew a plane.

I turned 25.

I've had my fair share of bad days, but most of the time I'm wise enough to be thankful for the privilege of getting to live each moment in this god damn beautiful world.

I watched this Google Chrome commercial tonight and it made me cry, but also gave me the perfect line to get you reading again –

Basically, I’m back – how about that (virtual) coffee?
