How to make Michelle put on a dress
July 26th, 2009Saturday night, I put on a dress, slapped on some make-up, did my hair, and had dinner downtown. Thanks to Amy and Jamie for gathering some of the local bloggers who weren’t able to go to BlogHer for some fun right here at home. (I snapped this photo with my webcam at 11:30pm so forgive the quality and the lack of make-up…I just thought I would preserve the proof that I did occasionally put on something other than a t-shirt and do something that doesn’t involved a clip with my hair.)
It was a lovely bunch of women! I met Calie who lives down the street from me. I sat next to Lori who was delightful (and I swear she is familiar). I had a chance to chat with Meredith and Jordana and Ashley and Malia – all of whom I adore. I was only able to say hello in passing to the others at our long table – and a few I didn’t even get a chance to do that much. (This photo stolen borrowed from Jamie.)
It was great to get out and have some rowdy conversations and yummy margaritas!
(Also stolen borrowed from Jamie. Flickr didn’t make it easy – I had to work at it!) That is Jordana, me, Lori, and Jessie.
(This one is mine.) And yes, Ashley is really this smiley and cute and Meredith is really that gracious and lovely in person.

Looks like SO much fun! Some of my favorite bloggers were at that party. Stinks not to be a Nashvillian, huh?
