The first of many as we get ready to start organizing the 2nd Come As You Are party by BlogHer and Aiming Low and featuring the super sexy Mouthy Housewives.

It brought up all these great memories of San Diego. The fun dinners, good times with friends and this……burning in my brain……..that things weren’t right.

I was at one of the highlight of my life.

And I felt it.

This situation. The one that Pete and I are trying to handle like the grown-ups we play on TV.

I’m going to travel to NYC  this summer with a fair amount of party attendees aware of the turmoil that has happened in our walls.

I’m ok with that.

The burning will be gone.

There were some different decisions and complication.

But it was LOTS of fun.

I was incredibly hot.

Supermodels were jealous.

You’re thinking “HOW DO I GET THAT COOL?”

You can’t. Just deal.

Today I’m celebrating my 64th birthday.

THEORY: If I lie and tell people I’m 29 they’re going to think that I look like absolute crap! If I tell them I’m turning 64 they think I look ROCKING for my age!!

And at Babble you can read about having an example at dealing with handicaps.

And because it IS my birthday I extended your chance to win a necklace from Blend Creations!

When I get to play on Twitter it’s fun for me because it’s been part of communicating with these people who were important to me.

When I was approached by Vivian of Blend Creations to wear one of her charm necklaces it meant more than just sporting a pretty piece of jewelry.

It means wearing a piece of my friends around my neck.

Isn’t it awesome?  I love it. I really do.

Not because I’m an egomaniac or anything (which I obviously AM) but because what it stands for.

So, Vivian is letting me not only have this little piece of Heaven to wear, but one to give away as well!

REPEAT: You can totally win a Twitter necklace (or the other options) for your very own!
