And Yet, I Managed to Party on a Sunday Night

So in the middle of all these changes and busy times I'm going through, I apparently found some time to party. And on a Sunday night, no less. Yes, I had school work the next day, but ppfffftt!

Priorities, people, priorities.

The wonderful, wonderful Gus and Michelle from Miami Beach 411 did a super awesome and generous thing and invited basically local bloggers to enjoy a holiday dinner together at Tuscan Steak.

How could I pass that up? Exactly. So I didn't.

I decided that everything else be damned, Mami was going to put on a cute top, heels, make-up, and mingle with the grown-ups. I can't stress enough how very big a deal it was for me to go out on a Sunday night. This was unheard-of even before I became a mom, because my brain just can't grasp the concept of being out late when work looms bright and early the next day.

But it was so worth it. I got to spend some time with folks I already know and love, and meet others whom I know of or whose work I read.

Seriously, for all of you who attended:

Ipanemic (it's official: we love each other.)
Sex and the Beach
Miami Rhapsody
All Purpose Dark
Stuck on the Palmetto
Dan Renzi
FANLESS! (who FINALLY spoke to me! as in, a real conversation full of words and thoughts and such!)
Discourse.net
BlenderLaw
Miami Condo Investments
Miami Vision Blogorama
South Beach Real Estate Blog
Burnett's Urban Etiquette
Miami Fever
Restaurant Gal

I was so happy to meet you and only regret not being able to chat with every one of you. Thankfully, I know our paths will cross again!

Gus and Michelle - thanks for such generosity and for kindly inviting me to join in the fun. You don't know how much I needed it!

    Tere,

    Sunday night was the best!! And I knew you were going, but somehow totally forgot until the moment you stood up and gave your introduction. And then it was like I was 6 years old, waking up on Christmas morning to a shiny new red bike!!

    Meeting you was, without a doubt, one of the bigger highlights of the evening for me. You totally rock!

    Other surprise? You're much taller in person. Coulda been the heels.

    WAH! I was gonna go with fellow blogger and best friend from www.gimmepatience.com and our hubbies - alas, life got in the way.

    I'm glad everyone had a good time and I'll catch y'all next time!
