high-falutin’

IMG_9316.JPGYou know you want me to wear this on Friday night when I read my post at the Blogher Community Keynote. And you know I’m just as tempted to do it.

I mean, seriously, look how skinny I look in this picture! I swear on the lives of both hot ABBA chicks that I am in no way as skinny as I look in this picture. It must be the off-the-shoulder neckline, or the way I’m sticking my chest out – either way it is a trick of the eye!

This evening I take off for San Francisco. I’m mostly excited, and surprisingly not nervous or insecure. I think the two years since I last attended have given me sound footing and confidence. I am who I am, and I have nothing to prove.

Of course this only means I will trip as I walk across the stage, or pee my pants just before reading. Won’t THAT be the best headline on techmeme: chubby girl with weak Kegel muscles pees in front of hundreds…

  4. Jen, I throughly enjoyed your reading at BlogHer08 and am willing to vouch that you did NOT pee your pants. I also enjoyed sharing your breakfast table on Saturday morning and plan to visit your blog on a regular basis. Have a safe trip home!
