Old Potato Road.

i created a simple blog to keep track of the odd happenings in this unconventional life of mine. Old Potato Road is my favorite road in between Austin and my hometown of Bryan, Texas. at a point in my life when i was figuring out what the hell i was going to do and who the hell i wanted to be i'd pass Old Potato Road and laugh out loud. it reminds me to honor and seek those simple moments that give breath to our crazy lives.

even today, when i drive by after my mom, dad or courtney has graciously scooped me up from the austin airport i anticipate passing Old Potato Road. it reminds me of finding joy in the simple moments of our lives. the sort of simple joy that creates reprieve from the dust of everyday life we sometimes can't shake.

i offer no wisdom. just sharing my life. things that make me laugh. things that make me cry. things that make me, well, me.
30 YEARS AWESOME.

Today marks my 30th year of existence.  I had someone tell me the other day that I should be thrilled to turn 30.  That I should look around at my success in career and be proud of where I am.  My response was simple.  I told her I was proud of who I am surrounded by.  I’m proud of all the unique characters that have come into my life and shaped me for the better.  If I didn’t have the people all else would be a wash.

So to ALL of you out there that have laughed with me, cried with me, tried to understand why I was laughing at you or just took a stroll with me, to you I say thank you.  Thank you for making my story great.  Thank you for loving me well and continually inspiring me to be, me.  You’ve bettered my adventure.
