SQUEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Okay – just had to get that out of the way.
Why? Because I’m really excited. Nervous, yes. But mainly, really excited.
What could possibly have The Only Girl so excited?
An adventure. That’s what.
I’m composing this post on Thursday afternoon. As I sit on an airplane. BY MYSELF PEOPLE! Because I’m en route to one hell of a Girl’s Weekend.
Where you may ask?
Hold on tight. Are you ready for this one???
I’m flying from Toronto to Boston. To meet these people, who just so happen to be a few of my most favourite Bloggers;
- Monique from A Day in the Life of a Surferwife
- Jessalyn from Cape Code Awesome
- Kate from Then Again Kate
I know!
And on Saturday night we are going to see the show of this person;
(Chelsea Handler)
Apparently she’s a famous comedian. I’ve read about her on many of your blogs, but honestly? We don’t get her show in Canada, so no one up here really knows who she is. I’ve been YouTubing her like crazy this week in preparation, but am slightly afraid that I’m not quite up to speed. AND we have backstage passes!
I KNOW!
No, us Bloggers have never met before. Well, at least not outside of the safe confines of the Webz. And yet we know so much about each other. But meet we will. Tonight. Gulp.
Can I just tell you how nerve-racking the thought of meeting these girls in person has been? Granted, I just decided to join this little weekend meet-up barely over 1 week ago. A very last minute and impulsive decision for The Only Girl. She’s is not good with such things. She likes to plan. A lot. Allow me to peel back the curtains of my mind and let you in on what the past week has been like.
- What was I thinking?
- How can I quickly lose 5 pounds?
- I change my mind! I’m not going!
- These boys are driving me crazy – how many more days?
- What to pack . . . what to pack?
- Crap – I need to get a mani, pedi and hair cut before I go!
- What if I don’t like them? What if they don’t like me?
- What if we sit in awkward silence most of the weekend?
- I’ll be one of the few people who actually gets to see what the elusive Kate looks like
- Can the boys be trusted by themselves? Surely they know to have the house back in order before I arrive home, right? (note: this was a cryptic reminder meant solely for Willie. Hi Honey! Miss you!)
- Chilling on The Cod – Jessalyn style!
- I am physically unable to poop outside my home base. This means no poop for 3 days. If you should see pictures of me where I appear quite bloated or slightly pregnant, please know it’s the poop.
- Generally, I’m unable to stay awake past 11:30. I am sure to be the party pooper.
- Oh – Margaritas with Surferwife! Inventor of the Celebrity Encounter Margarita Barometer! How cool will THAT be?!
As you can see, I’ve been riding the crazy horse of emotions. But now it’s too late. I’m on the plane and the meet-up is eminent. Wish me luck.
Be sure to visit their blogs to see what they have to say!

Well, whatev, it was still fun!

OMG.
If I wouldn’t have been trapped in garage sale hell I would have read this and then I’d have been jealous all weekend!!! Thank God I didn’t read this Friday. I would have been to distracted to beat down the locals.

I am so jealous of this that I can’t even begin to find the words.
If not for stupid Farm Fair, I could have met YOU TOO? This SUCKS.

You ladies must have had the BEST time. Did you see Heather??
August 2nd, 2010 at 9:08 pm
O.M.G is SOOO right!!! This is going to be the BEST time!!! Or was the best time seeing as it’s now…Monday. I think if Salt had joined you, my head would explode. So, tis better that she didn’t. I simply cannot wait to hear about this trip and will be stalking ALL of you until I get the dirt!
August 2nd, 2010 at 9:09 pm

August 3rd, 2010 at 10:15 pm
YEY!!!
I went and saw Chelsea a few months ago in Boston…I am curious to hear from Monique if the show was the same the 2nd time around! Did you enjoy the show ? have you read her books?
August 5th, 2010 at 6:07 pm
Wow. You’re a total VIP. And now I really want to take a girl’s trip with my favorite bloggers. And drink a Sam Adams. It’s not too early, right?
Thanks so much for visiting yesterday!
