Chicago Nerves

I am nervous about Chicago.  I am very excited about Chicago.  I don't know, maybe I am socially stunted or something, but the closer it gets the more nervous I get.  I think you all are not going to like me for some reason or another.  Maybe being fat all of these years has just ingrained this fear in me that I am always being judged.  I can't shake this feeling very easily but I am going to try!  I just have this need and want for people to like me.  Anyway, I had to put that out there.  I'm off to Zumba!  Peace out, word to ya motha!

  1. Just so you don't feel alone...I'm not able to go, and I'm having some anxiety that you are all going to become the best of friends and I'll be left in the cold with no one. :(

    I'm sure you'll have a fantastic time, and everyone will love you. What's there not to love????

  4. I'm with Amy - you guys are going to go and all become BFFs (because everyone will love you) and the rest of us are jealous!

  8. You are not socially stunted. You are totally normal and most of us have some level of anxiety about going. I think first thing on the agenda is one huge group hug. And for those who can't make it, we will miss you and still love you very much.

  11. Yeah, it feels like a high school reunion of people I know really well, yet don't know at all. It's a mixed bag. But mostly positive! I'm super excited! Can't wait to meet you!

  12. OMG I could have written this! I'm so excited, but I'm so nervous. I think I was always one of those fatties that was a wallflower so stuff like this is hard for me. I'm coming alone, so I feel like I have no safety blanket. I take a lot of comfort in the fact that we are all in the same boat. I cannot wait to meet you!!!

  13. Me too. In fact I keep thinking that I won't get a flight out. I fly standby on my son's pass so won't know when I will be getting there. But we will all have an amazing time and be too busy to be wallflowers. Maybe we should all sit around the first night and sing Kumbaya!
