FOOLED YOU!!
Totally not awesome, but you know what? YOU ARE!
Srsly. No kidding around here.
Ever since announcing that I am going to *gasp* BlogHer last Thursday, I have been in a fit of anxiety (in a good way) and little goofy butterflies like a 6 year old’s first day of school… and holy hell, I cannot fracking wait!
I have had a chance to get to know a whollllle bunch of you within the past few months, and I keep thinking of the sweet sweet people I want to meet in person at BlogHer. This list is growing…and growing…and growing… along with the anxiety. Because dood, 44 days!
Seriously, how many of you awesome people are going to BlogHer? A LOT! And, I did have a list here of everyone I wanted to see at one time or another, but uh – the list got too long and I just decided to not do it because it’s pretty much ALL OF YOU!
And because I get to meet so many of you, I want to look as good as I can! So, in turn, I’ve slowly started to think about what I’m going to wear for what, when, who, etc… and I’m having somewhat of a hard time. As you may or may not know, I’ve been trying to be healthier, and have lost some poundage/inches and I’m not sure if I will fit into the clothes that I am currently wearing, especially since some of my pants that I bought 2.5 weeks ago, are too big right now. However, that is mainly because I bought them too big. Oops. I’d like to bring some fun stuff… well whatever fun stuff I can find. Comfy shoes, yet cute… skirts, although since we’re going to “the windy city” I’m not sure how much a skirt would work, although well.. meh, who cares! And, I want to find a black dress of some sort… you know, because everyone needs that little black dress!
I’m entirely too self conscious to wear certain things, however I am getting better… especially now that I am working out and getting more muscle. I am hoping to lose another 10 lbs by blogher, so we’ll see. 10 lbs and a whole lotta inches – if I keep doing what I’m doing, I shouldn’t have any problems! *crossing fingers*
I am usually a horrific procrastinator so I need to start thinking about these things now, because I can just about promise you I will be packing at 10pm on Wednesday night June 22nd… and in a state of panic because “OMG! WHERE ARE MY SHOES!” and then I get really pissy and fun to be around, and yell at people for things that are not their faults and blah blah blah. Poor poor husband. Mention him in your prayers that night before bed, he’ll need them.
You too? Heh!
So in order to try to hold back the reigns of the beast so she doesn’t wig out, I need to start planning NOW! Outfits for what days, nights, shoes with what clothes, what pants to bring, sunglasses, shirts, tanks, undies you really didn’t think I was going to go without undies, right?, everything… also make up… I need to find some new (not budget draining) make up… if you have a favorite, leave a comment and let me know. I’m a cheap kind of girl… cheap is good. I usually will on very very rare occasions go to Macy’s or Herberger’s, etc and buy the name brand stuff… and that’s only if they have their gifty special.
We’re getting to the point, I swear… but because you guys are all awesome, and some of you have been to blogher before unlike yours truly… what types of clothes did you bring? Some nice dressy stuff? And when I say dressy, I mean casual dressy – like this or this… or wide leg jeans and a cute top, and cute shoes, and stuff eh! I’m so descriptive. Stuff, yo! ? Hell, I’ll bring a bunch of stuff see? stuff, yeah – that stuuuuff.… if you’re anything like me you’ll bring 5 shirts to choose from for each day. YeeGads! Hai! I am coming for 3 nights 4 days and have 3 suit cases! Halp! I’m going to get some cute PJs and comfy clothes too… I loves me some comfy clothes! And helllloooooo, I like to look cute while I sleep, TOO! Chances are though, I may or may not make it to bed with teh PJs, I may just keel over in bed because uhm, teh alcoholz! all you people who go to blogher sound like a bunch of crazy hooligans!
What are you bringing? I’m also trying to think up spending money and how much to bring… argh! That is kicking my ass… I need to start saving, now! Or, uhm… start stashing here and there so that sweet sweet beautiful husband of mine doesn’t catch on to how much I’m bringing. >:o)
