Yeah, this is a girly post and a little bit techie post, so if you are neither then I would advise you to RUN AWAY! Okay, you're still here? Brave aren't you? Okay, well you can either read another post about the BlogHer Reachout Tour or you can look at this site about kittens. Anyway, for everybody who's still here, this is my progress thus far:
- Clothes - check!
Yes, after much searching and deliberation, I've got the "perfect clothes" pulled together for this big event. Complete with labels that say "perfect clothes". You know, just because they are, and because I'm like that, mkay? And by perfect, I mean perfect for me. Not too stylish, not too painful, not too Mom-i-fied, not too young, and not too cougar-y. See? Just right! Perfect! And we all know that having the "perfect clothes" is vitally important because, really, looking good is just as important as being there. Right? Um, er, yeah, right.
- Cute Shoes - check!
Yes, after searching the vast collection known around here as "youhavetoomanyfrickinshoesintheattic" for many days, I was able to finally locate "The Perfect Shoes" to wear with "The Perfect Clothes". I know you're all so relieved, because I might actually have been killed if I'd have bought any more. No, really, killed. OH, and here's a news shocker for Mrs. America and all the ships at sea. I will be rocking some majah cute shooz for the cocktail party! No Jimmy Choos or anything crazazy like that. But they will be cute. All together now, and a 1, and a 2...
yay for cute shoes!
- Pedicure - TBD
Because I still have to get a pedicure. Cute shoes demand cute toes, right? Now I just have to figure out the where and when... yoo hoo - blogger girlz, any ideas? More importantly, if you've got room for girl-time this week then "Face" me and we'll figure it out.
- Transportation - DOUBLE-CHECK!!!!
Not sure whether I've mentioned this yet ;-> but we're rolling to BlogHer courtesy of GM. And, why is that, you ask? Oh, could it be maybe because GM ROCKS!!! Oh yeah, they frickin' rock! And because they rock so much, they chose us to be a part of the "carpool" for the BlogHer Reachout Tour stop in DC. Impeccable taste on their parts, we think. Anyway, because of their inspired decision, we will be rolling up to DC in this stylin' whip:
The 2008 Saturn Vue Green Line Hybrid
And, as if the coolness of the car itself wasn't already too much, all the gadgets and gizmos are activated on it. This means that we can enjoy the XM or get lost or whatever as much as we want. Hey Neverlost! Better practice your mad skillz! We'll need you by Sunday! Since the fine folks at GM are delivering the "Dream Machine" on Saturday afternoon, The Bob and I plan on spending Saturday night cuddled up in the car, staring at all the nifty new gauges and blinking lights, and soaking in that new car smell! We'll try not to drool on the upholstery, I promise. Oh, I think I forgot to mention this, GM ROCKS!!!
- Laptop, Camera, Ipod & other gadgetry - check, well, sort of
I've got the lappy ready to go, after spending several hours cleaning junk out of it. You know, because The Bob is very browser-ADD. So there were 8 different browsers on that computer. Yes, 8! I counted them as I took them back out. Because none of them worked properly. None of them. Now I'm just trying to decide whether I'll need a thumbdrive or a port. harddrive. Yes, gear queers are freaky. I know, I are one. Um, yeah. But back to the gear. The Ipod is loaded with everything I should need, including a book and prolly a TV show or movie. Lucky for Sarah none of the music I've loaded so far has shown up on a commercial lately. A church sign, yes, but not a commercial. Everybody should tell Sarah that she owes me... dark chocolate M & Ms usually work. The camera bag is packed, with too much stuff, as usual. A sign that you've partially resigned your girl card is when your gadget bag is bigger than your shoe bag - or it's a sign of the apocalypse. Both work, you decide which.
So, that's the packing, and the excitement builds with every minute we get closer to leaving! Can you tell that I'm so ready? But more importantly, are you ready for us DC? I sure hope so, 'cause here comes BlogHer! Um, Waiter? Yes,
