When Bad Fashion Happens To Good People

I give up.  That last post I was trying to do when WP turned on me?   I give up…dammit it was cute too but I don’t have time to re-write the whole thing and apparently WP has some very serious issues with cut and paste as well as some type of deep hatred for Microsoft Word transfers.    I think it should seek counseling to get along with other programs…but that’s just me.

So in three easy points, here is what I was going to share with you…

1.)   I have no shame.  This is how stupid I looked for Jen Lancasters Pretty in Plaid book signing.  Hey she asked every one to dress up…my status as a professional grade stalker would have slipped had I not followed orders.   Also, you should know a 20 year old tried to pick me up at the 7-11 while I was wearing this.   He was wearing a pink shirt, skinny black tie and VANS.   ‘Nuff said.

2.)  This is my long lost friend, Cheryl.   We had not seen each other in 17 years and ended up reconnecting on facebook recently.   She took my demands about all y’all reading Jen’s books pretty seriously, bought all three and discovered her inner Jen as well.   It was beyond amazing to see her, an entire lifetime happened since we last connected and we won’t be letting that happen again!   Also, you should know that crispy curly hair in the background is not mine.  It somehow made it’s way into the picture.   Had I thought to crimp my hair, I probably would have.  I am forever thankful that thought did not occur to me.

3.)  The book signing was a total blast.   The funniest part was when the Barnes and Noble person tried to rush Jen off to auto-graphs after she read a chapter from her book to us.    Jen was really not going to have any of that and politely informed the woman that if we had questions, she was going to answer them.   She rocks…truly.   And I’m pretty sure judging from the scene there that she approximately 300 best friends in Dallas.

Also shout out to Bobbi from Bobbi in La La Land who I had the pleasure of meeting.  Have y’all read her blog?  She is funny and adorable!     She came up and introduced herself after her sister, Connie from The Young and The Relentless told her I was there and described what I was wearing after I posted a picture on twitter.   Based on the picture above, I’m sure you can agree that I was easy to find.

Now if you will excuse me, I’m off to spread my particular brand of charm mayhem around the greater Atlanta area.   Be sure to email me to let me know when you have your Prom-a-Palooza pics up and ready to go.  I’ll be updating the links throughout the day on Friday and will leave it up through the weekend and Monday so everyone has a chance to visit your site and marvel at your high school awesomeness!
