well, hi there, nugget-lovers. my name's callie. it's such a pleasure to meet you. i'm here because jenna feels bad for her blog, but she can't think of anything to write about. actually, she blatantly asked christina or me to write an entry for her...so basically, i'm doing a favor for a friend. plus, i'm bored at work, and so this is what you're getting. enjoy. here are the important things you need to know about me:
1. i like lists and parenthetical statements (that means using parenthesis, in case you didn't know);
2. i l-o-v-e the charleston nugget;
3. i also love baseball, football, girly drinks, wearing dresses, and all things related to the south;
4. i write my own blog (though it's been severely neglected lately);
5. i will be coming to charleston for the first time in just under two weeks!
yeah, you read that right. i'll be coming to a city near you very soon to help celebrate the nugget's birthday, and let's just say that all participants involved are pretty psyched. i know you readers probably don't care that much (considering we just met and all), but trust me when i say that i'm pretty awesome, and you should consider getting excited anytime now.
now, let's briefly discuss the reasons why i like jenna:
1. her e-mails make me laugh a lot and keep me amused all day at work;
2. she is southern and she likes quotes about the south (please reference #3 above if you have ADD and don't remember why this makes me happy);
3. she's pretty, smart, honest, and a good friend;
4. we both love bright colors, yummy wine, being girly, and things with polka dots;
5. we both highly enjoy writing e-mails to each other in ALL CAPS on friday afternoons when we are too lazy to un-click "caps lock" on our keyboards.
i could continue, but let's face it, if you're reading jenna's blog, you probably already know all the reasons she is wonderful. so, moving on to the real topic of my post. as i mentioned, this little midwesterner is heading to the gorgeous city of charleston (i'm pausing to give you a second to cheer and celebrate), and christina has already come up with a list of things for us to do. i'm here on jenna's blog asking you for additional "must-see" people/places/things for my trip. i am obsessed with mini vacas, and i want to make sure to see every important landmark in the city while i'm there! here is christina's list - copied and pasted directly from a friday morning e-mail:
possible plans:--
--whole foods for cheese and $4 wines (so good) and gelato!
--party at the point
--the market saturday morning downtown for crepes and charleston stuff!
--beach day
--celebrate NUGGET'S bday
--walk around downtown
--mimosas or brunch
--EAT EAT EAT DRINK DRINK DRINK DANCE DANCE DANCE
(see, i told you i wasn't the only one who's excited about this!)
so, adorable readers of the charleston nugget, what else is there to do? what one thing will make my entire trip complete? help!
xoxo,
callie
p.s. random fact: i just wiki'd charleston and discovered that its nickname is the holy city. i also learned that it is supposedly the "best-mannered" city in the united states. (note to self: practice your etiquette and your holiness?)
p.p.s. in case you were curious, this blog contains 3 lists and 7 parenthetical statements. that makes me smile.
p.p.p.s. you probably make me smile, too.
