Keep These in Your Back Pocket
Stolen from Jennie...
Things You Should Know About Me When We Meet at BlogHer:
1. I'm quite petite (duh!) but usually counteract this by wearing at least 3 inch heels. Please, none of the "Ohh, you're so cute!" that all us tiny girls get, thereby driving us crazy!
2. I curse like a sailor and was once told by a guy friend that he usually hates when girls swear, but he liked when I did because it actually sounded quite natural coming out of my mouth. Whatever that's supposed to mean! (In all reality, I usually reserve my bad words for when I'm around people I know really well, so unless I have a lot of cocktails, this probably won't come out).
3. I bite my bottom lip when I'm nervous. So yeah, I'll probably be biting my lip all weekend.
4. I slipped down a flight of wet, wooden stairs two weekends ago, landed right on my bum, and I still can't sit right. So if you see me slowly easing into a chair, don't fret, I don't have hemorrhoids, just a bruised bum.
5. I tend to babble about really ridiculous things when first meeting a person, so don't mind me if I tell you about how heartbreaking it was when Goody stopped making rubberbands with the metal or that one time that I got in a fight with a girl at Universal Studios because she cut in line.
6. Err, yeah...about that. Most people call me feisty. I prefer passionate. I try to keep it in check, but it's not always easy. Napoleon Complex, what?
7. Don't get me wrong though. I tend to make friends with everyone, even if it's just for a few minutes in line at McDonald's or while sitting next to you at a concert. I am totally my mother's daughter in that regard.
8. I'm terrible with hair and mine usually ends up in a ponytail at the end of the day. Even more so now that it's in that in-between/growing out stage. I'm open to any and all pointers!
9. I LOVE to dance. Please join me on the dance floor. (Will there be a dance floor?)
10. I'm always hungry. I'll be the girl toting around the bag full of snacks.
I can't believe that at this time next week, I'll be meeting so many fabulous women at BlogHer! I feel so unprepared--I haven't even started planning outfits! And in case I haven't mentioned it already, I'm rooming with three wonderful women that I am so excited to meet: Jennie, Kristie and Raven. Ahh, the excitement is building!
