Feeling inspired by Jenna's Big Sur video (I don't even want to talk about my slightly creepy love of these videos and those families and how cute those kids are etc etc etc) and by this Verily article about breaking up with your tv. Yikes, preaching to my heart, sister.

We live in Colorado now. I have not climbed a 14-er yet. Mostly because I'm pretty sure I will die. But also because I'm an introvert, I'm a homebody, and I'm lazy. Emphasis on the lazy.

I love the idea of adventures, and hiking, and camping, and the like. And I'm realizing more and more that I want to be able to tell cool stories when I'm old. I want to be able to open a photo album (or scan photos into some eye chip so you can view them on your eyeball, whatever the future holds) and share with (God willing) my children and their children and my friends and their families.

I love the Big Sur video for so many reasons. It's beautiful and Fleet Foxes. But also because it is an authentic and beautiful way to capture those beautiful memories. Like, I'm excited for them to share it with their families in 20 years.

I want to do that. I want to make and create things so I can share life now (with my husband, with my friends, with my family) and in the future.

I printed off some photos via Artifact Uprising thanks to Hannah's recommendation.

Friends. How are you?

I always feel like after I post a semi-successful post (like an embarrassing OBGYN visit) and receive many more views than normal, I experiencethis kind of funk where I don't want to write another post because how could I ever top awkward-naked-stories?

But, here I am mostly because of my blogging life coach, Hannah and because she added me to a facebook group for Catholic bloggers and I do not want to be a fraud.

So let's just keep it simple as I sashay back into blogging.

I'm Caitlin, I've lived in 4 states in the past 2 years and am currently occupying space in CO with CA license plates (middle finger count: 4). I've been married for almost a year (what) and am finally getting the hang of folding boxer briefs and fitted sheets.

My husband and I both work for the Fellowship of Catholic University Students in Colorado; he is the Associate Video Producer (qué importante) and I am a Digital Campus Missionary. I get to the use the internet all day for work!

This is the casual-hand-on-torso-engagement photo my mom wanted 14 months ago but never got

I'm lactose intolerant, fructose intolerant, looking to be a better writer, looking for a friend who is also starting some infertility treatment, need some help to revamp this blog design (halp) also just excited to make more internet friends!

We made it! Our grand moving plans did not go as...planned. Which is a nice way of saying that the poop hit the fan. Or the pee...? Too soon? Too far?
