Whew! That felt good.

I was just making myself a day-by-day to-do list between now and the first Bariatric Foodie Holiday Food Tasting and I am feeling a bit...overwhelmed. The following questions are going around in my head:

What the HELL were you thinking?
Can we pull this off flying solo?
Do we have a good exit route to get out of the venue if everything sucks and they end up wanting to burn you at the stake?

Folks, I could use a confidence (read: ego) boost. Help your girl out by sending some encouraging thoughts! I am officially in "OMGHOLYCRAPWTF!!!" mode.

I promise, this won't become a recurring request. :)

Ummmm...that's sort of comforting.

I don't want to suck but it's nice to know folks will not murder me if I do.

"AHHHH Whew that felt good" in my house is followed by my wife yelling for one of my boys to follow me with a can of air freshener!

Also remember that you don't need an exit strategy if you suck and they want to burn you at the stake. It is dangerous to start a fire inside so they will have to get you out of the building first at which point you can run!
