Chicago...is a wonderful town. It's even better when it has been over run by 50 plus fabulous women!! Yup...that town will never be the same.
I had the best time of my life. I swear I had more fun than I did when I was in Vegas for my 30th birthday.
Let's start with the Planners...each of the planners worked so hard to make this weekend an overwhelming success. They went above and beyond. We received amazing gift bags with free samples and treats. Everyone wanted to know how they got all of the goodies. I have the answer. They are beautiful, courageous women with hearts of gold and no vendor could tell them no. Thank you Debi, Linda, Joey, Draz, Jenny and Stephanie. Your dedication to this weekend is greatly appreciated.
My weekend started with the beautiful Stephanie and Angie at the airport. OMG. Stephanie Joy looks amazing. I barely recognized her. She is super tiny and had on the hottest outfit at the airport. Angie...why is she the sweetest? LOL...I mean she has the most warm and welcoming smile. I loved her on sight. She looks great. She only has one problem area ( we discussed this in our room.) I diddn't see it though.
We get to our room and who do I see...but the amazing Brandi...and my bed partner for the weekend. You've seen the pictures...we love each other. LOL People...Brandi is beyond beautiful. She is simply gorgeous. She should seriously be modeling somewhere. Her smile is contagious and her hugs are great. I was so glad to meet her in person. We have been texting buddies for awhile.
Brandi and I immediately hit the road to Indiana for some fresh ink. Of course my tattoo guy was late...and then he had to draw up my design. Let me just say...I love it. He is my go to guy. Whenever, I'm close to Indiana or visiting...I try to see him for something new. Crazy but worth it. Brandi received 2 new tattoos while we were there. They are beautiful. She loved them. I'm so glad.
Thursday night resulted in a Drag Show and lots of laughs. I got to meet my friend Fluffy, my hero Angela, and my inspiration, Jessica. These women are freaking beautiful...I can't describe how honored I felt being in their presence. It was like wow...it's possible...I can do this. They helped me so much. I actually tear up thinking of how much they inspired me to be better.
After the drag show there was singing. Angela is on her way to the big times with those pipes. The girl can really sing. Seriously. I'm totally signing her up for one of those reality signing shows.
I met many women. I have so much more to share. Unfortunately, my brain is not working right now. Pictures and more details to come. I hope this post makes sense.
