After a fabulous holiday season at home, I spent the second half of my time off work in Texas visiting my roommate. I ate as much Tex-Mex as possible, went out on 6th Street & Rainey Street, met all of Kat's friends and hung out with her loving family. I also celebrated my 24th birthday by going to my first NBA game, drinking my body weight in Shiner, playing Cards Against Humanity, and building a tent in the living room to sleep in.
I loved everything about being in Texas and being on vacation, but definitely the best part was remembering the importance of laughter and to not take yourself so seriously. Every day was full of laughter, and I even woke up the day after my birthday with sore abs from all of laughing I'd done the day before. I don't know if it was due to the craziness at work the past few months or the bleak winter weather that had me feeling a bit uptight, but it felt so good to stop taking myself so seriously and to laugh more than I have in a long time.
One of my resolutions for the year is try to involve more laughter in to every day.
Thanks y'all for helping me laugh during my Texas vacay :)
I don't have any pictures from my official birthday but below are a few from birthday round 2 in Austin.

Attempting to pick me up for a 'birthday girl' pic...
But resorting to a point & smile instead :)
