The first Friday of October is here! It's crazy that it's already fall, but I can't say I'm mad about it.

Here's some highlights of my week...

1// Monday was National Coffee Day. There's a lot of random "national days," but coffee is definitely one I can get on board with. I celebrated by drinking coffee. Go figure.

2// Did I mention it's October? I love it. I don't love that Texas doesn't know it's October, but everything else I love. 

3// I found this quote on tumblr and I absolutely adore it. 

4// A lot of times I'll re-watch my shows over and over and lately one of the shows has been One Tree Hill. Why was it so great? Why do I still love it? And most importantly, why the heck isn't Tree Hill a real place?

5// And finally, I just have to throw in a Stevie photo for you. Sometimes her ears look so big and pointy that she reminds me of Dumbo and I can imagine her flying up into the air. So there's that.

Throwing it back

Between my 2000s Pandora station and the amount of One Tree Hill re-watching I do, I end up with a lot of nostalgia. Certain songs add to that nostalgia, and suddenly I'm back in middle school with my studded denim flare jeans. {Okay, so my judgement wasn't always the best back then} 

Here's my ultimate throwback playlist. So dance. Sing. Remember. Wow, that was cheesy.

What's on your throwback playlist?

Even when it hurts

It's going to hurt sometimes. That's okay. Laugh anyway. Love anyway. 

Take a deep breath. You're going to be okay.
