We survived the Winnetu together. I cannot wait to go to your wedding. I’ll always remember the empty stomach, boxed wine, and hot beach afternoon we had.

Thanks for letting me visit and participate in your birthday shenanigans. It was great to finally meet you, and I’m sure I’ll see you sooner rather than later.

I had a wonderful Christmas. My most favorite gift is my new pair of Nashville Predators pajama pants.
I haven’t been posting here often because I have been incredibly busy planning this. If you happen to be in the Knoxville area for New Year’s Eve, please come by and see what I have worked so hard on. I have 4 more days of very hard work before this happens, and I’m just taking a deep Yuletide breath before I finish.
Also, I graduated college two weeks ago. I don’t really know what I am doing with my life once I am done with this job next month, and that’s okay.

I haven’t been reading any of your lovely personal blogs lately. To be honest, if you aren’t writing something about personal finance you will have a hard time catching my attention.
Why? I don’t know myself. It’s not like I have any debt to consolidate, or credit card balances to snowball a la Dave Ramsey. Nor do I have money to invest–although, I did recently open a savings account for the first time since high school. And yes, I did it because I have been consuming personal finance blogs like crack. CRACK! (Say crack again. CRACK!)
I get excited to bring dinner leftovers to work for lunch and think about how much money I am saving. Am I crazy? Yes, possibly. All I know is this is a lot healthier than that period of time where I was obsessed with celebrity gossip blogs.
Here are my favorites:

I don’t like Halloween much. It’s a children’s holiday that stands in between me and my Christmas. Yeah, MY CHRISTMAS. I love Christmas so much I have decided to own it.
But this year? I don’t hate Halloween like I usually do. And maybe that’s because I suckered my boyfriend into dressing up as a penguin named Jello. At an event called Boo at the Zoo, Will posed for countless photos, gave hugs, and high-fived all for the sake of promoting my friend Megan’s outdoor ice rink.
Oh, and I may not hate Halloween so much either because I got to see some of the cutest costumes ever. Exhibit A:
But don’t worry Rachel, I’ll go back to hating Halloween next year like normal. Maybe you won’t hate Christmas so much this year? Oh, who am I kidding…
