I don’t know when we grew up, but last I checked, I was still going out on school nights, staying up too late, and taking beach trips on Wednesdays. Now, all of a sudden, I’m a bridesmaid in a real life wedding of a friend MY AGE. There is no doubt in my mind that this young woman has found her knight, but holy mother, Diane! You’re grown up! And here we are, preparing for the first of what will be many weddings and with that, an opportunity to act like kids — the bachelorette party.

Thanks for giving me an excuse to feel like I’m in college still, even if only shortlived. And thanks for giving me an extra reason to celebrate you (as if I needed one)! 24 hours until a 48 hour sprint through NYC with some of my best friends from college. Can. Not. Wait.

P.S. Tumblrs - Any bachelorette party veterans have fun suggestions/must-do’s for our weekend?
