I believe the phrase of the day is:

{AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH}

nyc

I’m leaving for New York City today.

I’m sure that would be fine if I weren’t so socially awkward.  & afraid of getting punched in the mouth the first time I say, “Excuse me, y’all!” in my ever-so-sorority-girly-voice that raises five octaves & decibels when I’m nervous.

{Which, I am.}

Nervous, that is.

I got so nervous that I painted my toenails

blue.

Which is so very unlike me.  & I’m torn on whether I love the whimsy & cotton-candy un-Blair-ness of it, or if I should bail really fast & go get a pedicure with a signature pinkish-red.

at least my Gussy tote is packed.

with a laptop, journal, planner, iTouch, & 3 oz. toiletries.

p.s.  HOW ON EARTH AM I GOING TO SURVIVE WITHOUT MY BOYS FOR FOUR DAYS?!

  18. Nikki says:

    You’ll do fine, but I totally understand the high voice thing. Why is it when I’m on the phone with my doctor making an appointment I sound like Minnie Mouse?

    Also, just the mention of cotton candy made me reach for my Charms Fluff and Stuff…and it’s not even noon!

  19. Samantha says:

    I too would be a wreck. I go to my happy place in times like these, or drug myself with legal narcotics or colorful drinks :-)

    PS- I love the blue toes and you’ll be fine.

  20. April says:

    Have fun! Rock the blue toenails!

  21. Tiffany says:

    So excited for you!
    I loved visiting the city, but as a small town southern girl, it was kinda stressful getting around. People kept asking me to say different words for them.

  22. metta1313 says:

    You will have a blast. Can’t wait to read all about it.

    PS: I bet there are a ton more people who are more anxious to meet you. I know I would be!

  23. have fun! so jealous!

  24. susan says:

    We are not so bad here, you probably won’t get punched in the mouth but you will get some inpatient looks with y’all. Enjoy all the bars and restaurants our city has to offer.

  25. Manda says:
