oh, she's a rock star alright...at least in my world she is...

this is georgia

my new rock star friend

{come on look at her cowboy boots~she's totally cool}

who through blogging

I feel like I've known for a very long time

not forever though

as that's a very very long time

and how do we really know how long forever even is

?

{said once again in my craig ferguson accented voice}

so the story goes like this

~~

we've been blogging buds for quite some time now

the two of us

me and georgia

georgia and I

and

when I looked on the map and saw how close we live to one another

well I knew we needed to meet in person

so

I suggested the flea market that I go to during the summer

which ended up being perfect

as

she loves vintage and old even more than I do

if that's possible

~~

okay

maybe it's a tie who has the greater vintage love

but whatever

anyhow

we laughed

loved many of the same things

~she really loves vintage fabric anything

and

jewelry and owls

and

noticed how gorgeous these table cloths were all lined up by color~

shared a cinnamon roll

and

a basket of fries

{not at the same time silly}

got pushed over by gusts of wind

fell in love with many things we couldn't buy

and

smiled at ourselves for the things we did buy

~that green striped beach umbrella that georgia is standing under

now belongs to me...for a mere $10~

bicycles and things with wheels seemed to be the theme of the day

as they were everywhere

if we lived in the same town together

we might have gone home with this bike

so we could ride around together taking photos

with our feet kicked out in the wind

while we held on tight to our cowboy hats

and

while I sat in back pretending to help with the pedaling

hee hee

we both wanted these chairs

but neither of us had anywhere to put them

so we left them for some other lucky person to find

this great bike was marked $30 and was sold right behind our backs to a little boy for

10 bucks

and

then we both kicked ourselves

for missing out on that sale

here's georgia doing some serious looking

and

I think I heard her say to herself

"walk away from the wicker purse georgia"

~~

by the end of the day

having only seen a third of the booths

we were

windblown

a little sunburned

and

our feet and shoulders were sore

but

our hands were filled with purchases as we walked to our cars

~~

and

after five hours of being together

we knew a little bit more about each other

and

talked about how amazing our blogging tribe is

and

how it kind of blows your mind when you finally get to meet each other in person

and

how those who don't blog just don't "get it"

and

how we need to plan a big get-together for all of our blogging loves

like

you and you and you

{I think it might actually happen}

and

when we hugged good-bye

I knew it meant

"only until I see you again"
