I bruise easy, too.

Besides my freckles and incontinence, I'd say my nosebleeds are a huge part of my physical charm.

The first time I really noticed the unusual frequency of my nosebleeds was the week I graduated high school. I'd spontaneously bleed from the nose every day, twice a day, for one week, including as we were walking onto the field in our robes.

Just this month I've had three nosebleeds. 1)at charlotte russe. good thing we have headsets so I explain to my manager why I sprinted to the back. 2)randomly during the day at home. 3)as i was SLEEPING. I woke up because I couldn't breathe and thought i was dying

Other nosebleed highlights:
-In the shower. took me the whole shower to notice. i kinda space out in the shower.
-On the way to a dance. Good thing the directions were written on a napkin. Convenient, until we got lost due to our directions being useless (and soggy).
-on the way to gradnight (nosebleed #2 the day of graduation) where my friend chris had to hold my nose while I tried to find a tissue. It really brought us closer.

So, my friends, if you were undecided about setting me up with your single friends/relatives, let this post officially tip the scale.

I'm available, and I most likely have a brain tumor.

no logan, you have not. thanks for that, though. if you ever read this blog again and check the comments to see if there is a response (slim to none chance of that happening) let me just put it out there that I think you should move to Utah so we can date and be freakin' adorable together.

there it is.

arica- same goes for you.

Oh I know how the internet works Brooke, and how the comments work too. And I've been meaning to talk to you about moving to Utah for you but I didn't know how to tell you (the phone seemed wholly inappropriate) but this public forum makes lots more sense.
