Root Bound

I have coffee (tea for me) every now and then with a friend who walked in my shoes a few years ago. His words have inspired me, comforted me and made me laugh at the absurdity that is the Universe. And sometimes, a conversation that starts out so simply...

That is some really amazing advice. Really.

You should listen to your friends. Especially as regards houseplants, boobs, dating, and ice cream. And houseplants.

your cartoon strip is so creative! since you don't feel you are successful at baking (or frosting cakes) perhaps you could add cartoonist to your blogging resume?

LOL...Probably not, but I was pretty proud of it!

I'm so fancy you're going to have to call me Nancy.

Why do you talk to me? Seriously...that was lame.

mandyland said...

So was I. :)

Thanks, friend.

mandyland said...

Boobs. Check. Houseplants. Check. Dating. Of course. Ice cream. Ditto.

Thanks. :)

Epiphanies are good.  Epiphanies from a friend's words are better.  And life lessons that make us laugh on your blog are the best. :>
