10 things...

Y'all know that the Relevant Conference is coming up FAST - like, it's two weeks away! I am so honored to 'bring' Vibrant Faith Ministries with me, and am ridiculously excited to put real skin-on-faces to all the avatars that I have come to know and love. That's the most exciting thing about going to the conference - getting to actually have coffee and talk and laugh with and hug these ladies who have blessed me SO much - through my computer.

I am most super excited to meet my Twitter bestie, Cassie. Our friendship is so special to me. We 'met' almost two years ago when both of us were at a Women of Faith conference in Montana! I'm saving the whole story for a post later this week =) She is truly a woman of God, has been an awesome support to me over the last couple years, and I love her. Cassie and I are flying to and from the conference, and are rooming together.

I am also rooming with miss Lisa (but I call her Tadey). Hers was one of the first giveaways that I ever won, and I got a sweet business card holder that she made! I use it all the time and get compliments on it =) Tadey is sassy and fun and sweet and I can't wait to meet her.
So when I saw that Erin and Brooke were hosting this fun link-up, I had to join in. Here are 10 things Tadey and Cassie should know about me:

1. I am a human incubator. You already know that, but my temperature goes through the roof at night. I will want the AC on and will get you as many blankets as you need, but I need prefer a coooold room at night =) I'm even bringing a tiny little fan to blow at my face.

2. Lately I've slept with 6 pillows. Two behind my head, and two on either side of my body (one travels between my knees as I roll). I'm also a light sleeper, and wake up each time I have to roll over. I get up two-three times a night to (as my grandpa used to say) 'visit Mama Nature' =)

3. I'll probably stay up late (but I know you're night owls too) talking to people and promise to tiptoe back in the room if you're sleeping. Related: I can be a bear in the mornings. But I don't snore or sleep walk/talk and I don't take a long time to get ready. All this aside, I will be a good roomie! =)

4. I'm a chronic overpacker. I can't help it - I am a fierce what-if'er and need to be prepared for all scenarios.

5. Small talk drives me nuts. I wanna - and will - dive into heart talk with you. I'm not a fan of fluff.

6. I don't mind one bit if you rub my belly! I do mind if you say things like 'Wow, that baby must be coming any day!' 'Cause it isn't.

7. At times, I'm a little self-conscious. I like to laugh and will do so loudly, but if no one else thinks I'm funny I'll feel really awkward and kind of dumb. I will run across the room to hug someone I recognize, but will be praying they want to hug me back. I will do my best to not be a shrinky-dink {that's what I call it when I shrink up being shy and nervous}.

8. I love music. In the morning I might want to rock out, and at night I love me some piano music. This may or may not be Christmas music. =)

9. My pregnant food likes/dislikes are weird and strong. Candy is my favorite. Please don't judge me by the amount of sugar that I will consume. However, we can't make coffee in the room because I'll probably throw up =( Baby still isn't a fan of the smell. But I'll go down to the lobby bright and early, in my jammies, to get you coffee!

10. Meeting you will be the highlight of my trip. I already love you both.

I CAN'T WAIT!! =)
