Catch Up Monday!

I have alllll kinds of bloggy catch-up stuff to do today!

(Hang in there...there is an actual blog post at the end!)

First! I have some Shout-Outs!

1. I won one of the the Twilight contests that Toni of A Daily Dose of Toni ran!

2. My prize was an awesome bracelet made by Heather of Vanity Designs!

3. Linda from Short Pump Preppy gave me a little photoshop Santa hat for my avatar!

Those Three Girls All Rock!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Second! Fellow Bloggers...Let's Talk!

Are you going to BlogHer this year? Should I go?

If I go, do you promise to sit with me and make sure I don't get lost?

Yes, I am asking for a BlogHer Buddy/Jiggety-Sitter.

Also? I'd need a roommate (or 3?). I don't snore, and I promise I won't hog the bathroom.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Third! I am down with NaBloPoMo for the month of December!

I post every damn day anyway...so why not?

Plus Mandy is doing it, and I am a copy catter.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Fourth! An Actual Blog Post for you!

I had to call my doctor last Wednesday because I am still coughing and my ribs still REALLY hurt.

Awkward Phone Call:

Jenni to the Doctor: It still really hurts.
Doctor to Jenni: How often is it bothering you?
Jenni to the Doctor: Like, ALL the time.
When I breathe it hurts, and I like, breathe A LOT. Like, all day...
Doctor to Jenni: ...

She managed to garner through my incoherence that I might need a chest x-ray.

While I was changing into the little robe thingy
I noticed a pretty oval mirror on the wall,
and so you know what I HAD to do...

Jenni Jiggety - Looking FIERCE in her Hospital Couture...

And then afer my x-ray, I will have you know that I thought I left my phone in that room, and I had to go RACING back to find it because out of context, taking pictures of yourself before your chest x-ray is pretty odd and mildly deranged!

Okay. It is pretty odd and mildly deranged IN context...

But it's for my blooooooooooooog so it's okay!

ps. No pneumonia. Fractured rib PROBABLE. Codeine still saving my life.

pps. I did not leave my phone at the hospital. I came home and put it on the table next to my laptop, and then PROMPTLY forget that I had done so. I freaked out and went all the way back there for NOTHING (speaking of mildly deranged).

Don't forget! Coming Tomorrow!
My New Weekly Holiday Feature!

I am a little sad because BlogHer is like a 20 minute train ride away, and I don't think I will be able to make it! But a lot of really awesome people are going, so naturally, you should go!

Megryansmom said...

First I'd like to say say you look absolutely ravishing in that gown! I would like to go to Blogher, it's about an hour away. I NEED TO SCORE SOME CASH. I would love to room with you. I've been told I snore, I think he lies. I could get you a few other references.

HeatherY said...

Wish I could manage Blogher this year but it isn't going to happen. Must say that you look so glam in your gown!

jill jill bo bill said...

Save your pennies and comeo MY house in Sept. for our own Blog par-tay!!! What is that NoMoBloPoMoFo, or whatever....I am lost. Su-prize su-prize su-prize, Goober.

Cant Hardly Wait said...

I was so close to finally going to a BlogHer conference this year, but then I was all... DUDE those women would think I am a botard. So I decided against it.

georgie said...

I am not goin to blogher I am goin to jill jil bo blogher LOL in sept
isnt Linda just the greatest-she is my long lost twin sister yanno?

can't wait to see what you got in store for us 2morrow

Proud Mommy said...

Not sure if I love the gown or the pose more!!! Maybe you need MORE codeine to aid the pain.....just a thought....

Jen E @ mommablogsalot said...

Ouch, I hope your okay and glad you found your phone! haha

kel said...

Aww.. the rib sounds painful, thank goodness for the miracle otherwise known as codeine.
Love the photo.. very cool.

JLT6907 said...

sorry to hear about your rib. i hope you get better soon. LMAO @ the phone incident! I'm forever losing mine as well.

The Stiletto Mom said...

Why would they put the mirror there if they didn't want you to pose?

Annie said...

They would laugh at me at BlogHer!
You are rockin' the robe!

Kelly said...

i wish i could go to blogher. but i'm poor.

ps. LOVE the gown! where's the ball?

Firefly said...

You should definitely go, I really wish I could :(

And that hospital gown never looked better LOL :)

Jennifer Suarez said...

I have no plans to go to Blogher. I think it would be fun but no one would have a CLUE about my blog and that would make me feel awkward.

PS - you aren't alone in taking odd hospital gown pictures. Since owning a camera phone I too am guilty of such silliness. :-D Glad I'm not the only crazy one

ComfyMom~Stacey said...

Love you in the gown!
I want to go to BlogHer & I will certainly need a roommate if I go. But I will also need a plane ticket and Valium (because flying freaks me out). I have no problem getting the Valium but I'm not yet sure I can swing the plane ticket.

Eudea-Mamia said...

No BlogHer here. It would have to actually be happening in my garage for me to have a chance of going.

Sorry about your rib!! Take care. If not, please have next of kin forward all leftover codeine to me. Em

Kristina P. said...

First, love the new profile pic.

Second, I don't really quite know what BlogHer is all about.

And third, you look super sexy in a hospital gown.

Trenches of Mommyhood said...

Contemplating BlogHer - it will depend on what dates we book our family vacay at the Cape. I've missed it the last 2 years b/c of our family trip.

Robin said...

Oooh. Fractured rib? That must hurt like a beeyotch. Hope you are feeling better soon! (Gotta love hospital couture!)
Considering going to blogher... which means I'll need roomies too. I'll let you know for sure. (That is, if you're not too freaked out to share a room with me after the strange pervy comments I once left on your blog. AHEM.)

Kimberly said...

Seriously?? LOL! You're a dork! But an adorable dork!!! :o)

The Arthur Clan said...

Yowch! I hope your rib gets better quick.

I'm thinking about going to BlogHer only because an online friend is begging me to go with her. I hate conferences though! I think I'll go just to meet her and then sleep in all day while she attends all the meetings. :)

Tenakim said...

yeah, I don't get out much so I don't think I'll being going to blogher- but it sounds fun- maybe when I don't have kids or a husband! Love the smock- they sooo wanted you to pose!

Petra a.k.a The Wise (*Young*) Mommy said...

LOVE the johnny. You rock it sista. You could look good in a potato sack!

Mandy @ Adventures of a Millennium Mom said...

SO glad you are doing NaBloPoMo too! Also, I might be going to Blogher! I haven't decided for sure yet though... Hubby and I are trying for another baby! So, if it turns out that I'll be way pregnant by July, then I probably won't be going.

Jennifer said...

I need some details on BlogHer--I think it will be near me this year(?) and if so I will definitely go and be your buddy!

Sorry about your rib--keep that codeine flowing!!

JourneytoFamily said...

All that codeine is making you forget where you put your phone! Your picture is hilarious!

And how on earth did you end up with a cracked rib???!

Renée aka Mekhismom said...

I am glad to hear that it is not pneumonia. Codeine should be making you feel real nice. I am going to BlogHer. How could I pass up an opportunity to meet my bloggy friends? CU there? I hope!

Linda S said...

going to blogher...you have to come...so i have someone to be ignored with. I'm not eating until then to save money. and then not eating until Jill's...to save more money. I'm kind of hungry right now...but it's all for the greater good.

Dee said...

even in your pain you entertain us! your a trooper! Hmmmm blogher sounds intriguing, this year ain't gonna happen for me, shucks!

Deborah at Coco Bonbons said...

Okay, you are hilarious! LMAO!
