More Random Stuff

Well, the good news is I did not contract the swine flu. The sucky part is that I’ve been suffering a horrible cold for ten days, and today finally, I can breathe through my nose. Due to the sleep deprivation over the past three days, I’m now exhausted and ready to crawl into bed at 5:30. Fun times.

Next week I’ll be heading to Chicago for the annual BlogHer Conference. I’m driving down to the Milwaukee area to meet up with this hot blogger, and together we’ll make the journey south to Chicago. Can I just say how grateful I am to have someone to talk for half of the long trip? Thank you, Wisconsin Mommy.

For those of you who have e-mailed me, I’m sorry if I’ve failed to reply, it’s been mega busy (and chaotic!) here these last few weeks — but I will be at BlogHer from Thursday until Saturday evening. Due to my delicate condition, and not being able to drink, we thought it best to depart for home Saturday night. Yes, I know we’ll probably miss the CheeseBurgHer party, and for that I’m truly sorry. But I promise, PROMISE, to be present next year. Make sure you hold me t it.

I’m not in a panic over the conference itself, but I am sort of freaking out about traveling while pregnant. Even though my doctor has given his approval (he called it the “last hurrah” before I’ll be chained to a bed due to my high risk history… more on that in another post), I’m just a bit nervous about things. I know I’ll be fine, but like I’ve said before, worrying is in my nature. Please tell me to calm down.

I’ve got tons to do (pack, clean the house, make sure Dawson is taken care of, pack, freak out a bit more) so my blogging may be sporadic (I’m sure you’re used to it by now). But if you’re going to BlogHer, be sure to leave me a comment so I know to track you down!
