Things you should know about me if we’re going to be best friends

Being the best friend of Neely is a tough job(Ask Ashley and Michele) 
No I’m kidding…
But if you are going to be my friend….
….. These are things you should know
If Mac and Cheese is on the menu I will always order it
I drink a green monster smoothie everyday
I am obsessed with Greek Yogurt
I think I am an awesome dancer….I am not
My iPhone is always in my hand or very close to me
I use someecards to communicate my feelings
I have one of every gussysews product…at least one
Tory Burch is my fav
NARS makeup is a close second
I love kids but I don’t know if I want any of my own…don’t judge
I love the Today Show, The View and Nancy Grace…but if I watch Nancy Grace at night I have nightmares
I am uber Liberal but most of my friends are conservatives
I love me some Riesling and Blue Moon

I will work from home one day
My outfit stapes are Nike Shorts, Lululemon Crops, big t-shirts, long tank tops and Tory Burch flip flops
I prefer staying in to going out
I live for cold weather(scarves, boots, leggings)
I want to move to Chicago and plan to within the year
My mom and I super close and have a really oddly awesome relationship….everyone loves her
I wanted to be a film director til I was 19
I’ve always wanted to be a writer…I have had 3 short stories published
I hate when others use poor grammar but I’m OK when I do 
I haven’t had a sip of soda since June of 2004
I don’t eat white bread, donuts, mayo, mustard, sour cream, cilantro, or fish
I legit eat an apple a day

I watch the Hills over and over and over again because I think its amazing

I know every word to every song on the RENT soundtrack

My all time favorite bands/artists are The Cure, Counting Crows, Depeche Mode, The Killers and Brad Paisley

I’ve seen the movie, Garden State eleventy billion times and quote it from beginning to end

I can also quote in its entirety: Bridesmaids, Empire Records, Dazed and Confused, Wedding Crashers and When Harry Met Sally

I feel naked without a necklace, my diamond studs, and 2 rings on

What should I know about you if we’re going to be best friends?

    If you move to chicago, It’s a def possibility you would see me more than once a year. It is my most favorite city in the world. One reason:: it’s awesome; second reason:: my mom & brothers live there.

  5. I’m pretty sure we’re meant to be buddies. I also love Riesling & Blue Moon (especially w/ an orange)!! And I think our love for television really sums it all up! 😉

  7. Can we all be friends? I live for a riesling or Blue Moon on my parent’s cabin deck in the summer or by the fireplace in the winter. I’d rather stay in than go out as well. I really don’t like conflict and often hide my true feelings, except for those closest to me.

  8. That i too eat an apple a day (since 2007). I wanted to be an OBGYN since I was like 5 and called it a mommy doctor until I realized that I had to deal with blood at around age 12. Lawyer seemed like the next best thing….

  11. So if we’re going to be best friends (which I really think we could be) – I also love to stay in rather than go out … and I hate summer. Now that I work year-round and I don’t get “summer vacations”, I wish it would stay fall or spring year-round. Nothing is more gorgeous than PA in the fall.

    These are awesome! You are such a sweetheart! & yay for having conservative friends! & I totally feel naked without my class ring and turquoise ring and my necklace as well!

    Pretty sure I can quote Bridesmaids all the way through as well!

    I never knew you liked writing(outside of blogging lol). I’m into writing as well, I’ve got a story I’ve started re-writing five or six times that I am working on 🙂

    I’m also a person who would rather stay in then go out 🙂

    I agree with your kid comment. I feel that people think I’m selfish for it but right now we’re not ready and who knows if we’d ever be.
