Dreading BlogHer

Anyone else dreading BlogHer?  Now don't get me wrong, I think it is a really cool thing but I am dreading it just a bit.  I suddenly feel like I am back in jr. high with no friends.  The chubby girl in the corner, if you will.  You see, while I am so excited to meet some of my idol bloggers, I am not going with anyone.  I couldn't convince a friend to come with me and so now I have to go by myself.

I hate doing things by myself.  I mean, I am having A LOT of anxiety over this.  I almost considered not going but I have already paid the money.  Plus I am pissed that my husband has known about this for months and suddenly has to work on Saturday.  I have a sitter but now I feel the mom guilt creeping in.  I feel bad about being gone all day, etc.  YUCK!  Don't even get me started or this will turn into a husband bashing post.  I will save that for my next post.

On top of the anxiety of being by myself is the anxiety of what to wear.  I didn't really think about it until I read all these blogs about what people are wearing.  You mean my standard capris and flip flops aren't enough?  I actually have to find my Coach purse in the bottom of the closet and dust it off????  I have to wear shoes????   Sh**!  This is suddenly a lot more work than I thought it would be. 

Oh well, I hope to learn a lot and maybe meet some people.  I just hope that when I throw up from nerves I don't get anything on my new clothes.
