Chez Jennifer

Jennifer and I met in 5th grade on the monkey bars. She had an Eeyore bandaid and somehow in 5th grade that was something

worth bonding over.

Time passed and we didn't really see each other, until

7th grade in Mr. Shriver's class where we had to do a

project together. It ended up being called Footopia, but I

honestly have NO IDEA what the point of that project was

anymore.
("Well that project was create a continent and to learn the vocabulary of map study!" -Jennifer)
So we met again over creating a continent while learning the vocabulary of map study.

We became especially best friends after deciding the easiest way

to pass notes was in journals (because back in our day cell phones were bricks that cost you .75 cents per message). This form of communication was great- our teachers thought we were fantastic note takers. We continued the notebooks all through high school, and we each have about 10 filled with all kinds of ridiculously awesome

memories.

After we graduated, I went to Chicago for college and she ended up in good old Kearney, Nebraska.

In the SEVEN YEARS that she has lived here, I never visited.
Finally, I did.

This is her apartment.

A pixie garden, a housewarming present

from Jennifer's Grandma.

Except for these legit fairy baskets

made by a leprechaun with glitter and rainbow dust.

This is...Jenny 2.

broke it)

Bob & Harry's mother's pentacle, I mean obviously.

Jim Butcher.
Magic tested, wizard approved.

I believe there may be a theme here.

Evinrude, a dragon scale betta.

Like I said, there's a theme here.

Bottles made of lavendar glass are actually really valuable now.

HOW MANY OWLS ARE THERE

This would be a great drinking game.

Cobalt blue is almost as valuable as lavendar glass.

Humanoid owls. (Yeah, they really make this stuff)

Coolest fridge ever.

Gotta get that French in there.

"The finger painted Turkey"

(with no reference)

I made an appearance :) 8th grade graduation.
(WHAT WAS I THINKING WITH THAT HAIR STYLE??)

"Those are my teeth."

Things Jennifer's grandpa used to say

to her that her grandmother painted

on her dresser.

Cult classics :)

Best friends for over a decade, and still she is the person I talk to about anything and everything. Thanks for being my person <3
