5 years

So, Mark found a perfect mile-long loop in our neighborhood and I am taking Lucy and trying to walk it every night.  I wanted to figure out how I could lose the rest of my baby weight without exercise or having to change my diet and I just couldn't figure out how to do so.  SO I will walk.  The first night I did one loop and felt great so I upped it to two laps :) WOW go me, right?

So, anyway!  While walking this loop, I am listening to my iPod.  I haven't listened to my iPod in forever so the songs on it are super old.  But great of course!  I always tell Mark I have the BEST taste in music!!

The first night as I was walking I heard Def Leppard's, "Pour Some Sugar on Me".  Oh how I loved that song in college.  Then I got to thinking, holy crap I've been out of college for 5 years.  I am horrified.

Gone are the days that I danced atop coffee tables.
Gone are the days that I was carefree and let my hair down.
Gone are the nights spent at BT's with a pitcher (or four...)
Gone are the Thursday nights gettin' down at Rileys.
Gone are the happy hours at Rileys... in the spring on the deck... ordering dub dir shirs (translation: double dirty Shirleys)

... it's. so. depressing.

Me 5 years ago:


Me now:

I do miss college all the time.  It was a feeling I'll never experience again; but, I wouldn't change my life now for anything.  I love my husband, I love my home and I LOVE my baby :)


But man, was college fun!
