"life comes at you fast"

"nationwide is on your side..."

What a great campaign ad. I was reminded of this tonight when I received a phone call from one of my good friends. She was, as she said, "wiggin' out man," when I pulled up to pick her up on the side of a random sidewalk on campus.

Life sometimes hands you a grocery-store-sized-bag of food that needs to be hand-selected, washed, sliced, cooked, and eaten. The amateur chef becomes overwhelmed and indescently overcome with emotion. To Do lists can help, friends can listen, fellow cooks can give advice. But sometimes, these coping mechanisms don't do much and you just need your mom. And that, is totally okay.

My dear friend and sister, I heart you.
