Last night involved “Too Much” of a lot of things…
But, that’s to be expected when you attend headlining events such as the Healthy Living Summit Cocktail Party!
When I finally got to my room, Chandra was tapping her foot patiently waiting for me. The HLS cocktail party started at 6pm and I didn’t even get to the room until after 5:30pm.
So, I quickly put on too much make-up and took one too many shots to get the party started 😉
But, when we got to the entrance we realized Chandra forgot her I.D. Boo.
So, we had to spend too much on another cab (plus pay him to wait) as we went back to the hotel to get it.
Finally we got to the party! I had too much fun meeting so many blog friends in person! I usually feel like I’m out of the loop and haven’t met that many bloggers or readers in person. It was great to see everyone and hope we get to chat more today 🙂
Then, Chandra and I realized we had a few too many adult beverages and hadn’t eaten dinner. So we stopped at a pub and ordered a “last meal because I’m on death row and don’t care if my arteries harden as I eat it” kind of thing.
And Lobster Mac and Cheese with White Truffle. We don’t mess around when we’re on death row hungry.
It was definitely too much delicious food, but totally necessary. Kinda.
Then, we managed to walk back to the hotel where I couldn’t wait to ditch my shoes. Note to self: New shoes and a walking city= horrible blisters. Ouch.
Blisters and bleeding feet aside, it was a lot of fun!
Despite our late night I convinced Chandra to get up with me and attempt a work out. Unfortunately, we weren’t feeling it …
and decided to walk to Dunkin Donuts for my beloved iced coffee. But, they didn’t have iced coffee ready yet?!
So now I need to wrap it up and get one before the Summit starts! See you in a bit 🙂

1. i am glad i got to experience that meal, even if only in photos. i remember waking up and asking how it was and was informed it was the best mac and cheese of both of your lives. YUM.
2. i wish we would have spent more time together. we were both constantly running in two different directions. (although, you seemed to ACTUALLY be running, which completely MOTIVATED me to revamp my training plan. expect an email from me at some point about this.
3. i adore you. so much more than words could express. but that doesnt mean i wont try. you can expect an email from me at some point about THIS, too.
