		</p><p>Life is crazy.  We live on a ginormous spinning sphere of matter that rotates with a bunch of other spheres around a massive beyond comprehension inferno of gases.  Then there are caterpillars that turn into butterflies, male seahorses that hatch babies, and anteaters.  Wonderful craziness.</p>
<p>Anyway&#8230;</p>
<p>My life is particularly crazy in the strange way us humans fill our days.  We are still planning on <a href="http://www.newschoolnomads.com/2011/08/25/in-search-of-our-nomadic-home-we-found-her/" target="_blank">moving into the rv</a> this week.  Friday or Saturday will be our actual move in day.  There is still so much to be done but it&#8217;s doable.  I think.</p>
<p>Last Friday, I worked extra hard so I could head down to the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday for a blogger picnic.</p>
<p>I have priorities.</p>
<p>It was SO. MUCH. FUN.</p>
<h2><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/La-Blogger-Meet-Up.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4313" title="La Blogger Meet Up" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/La-Blogger-Meet-Up-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I got to hang out with some bloggers I already knew, meet a few who I have known only online, and meet some brand new friends.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3496.jpg"><img title="IMG_3496" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3496-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>I love all the cameras that come out when bloggers get together!</p>
<p>We ate amazing food (of course).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3497.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4088" title="IMG_3497" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3497-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://theactorsdiet.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Lynn from the Actors Diet</a> tossing her tasty kale salad.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3499.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4087" title="IMG_3499" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3499-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Then we chatted it up under the trees.  <a href="http://twobooswhoeat.com/" target="_blank">Amanda and Andy from Two Boos Who Eat</a>.  In the background is <a href="http://damnthefreshman15.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Mimi from Damn that Freshman Fifteen</a>, <a href="http://www.burpandslurp.com/" target="_blank">Sophia from Burp and Slurp</a>, and <a href="http://smoothiegirleatstoo.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Deb, aka, Smoothie Girl</a>.</p>
<p>Speaking of&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3509.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4080" title="IMG_3509" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3509-195x300.jpg" alt="" width="195" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>The picnic was organized by the amazingly thoughtful Deb.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3511.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4078" title="IMG_3511" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3511-300x197.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p>
<p>When I say thoughtful I mean <em>thoughtfu</em>l.  She sort of makes me feel like the parent who forgets their child&#8217;s birthday but that&#8217;s ok I still love her. Once, this girl even drove over an hour to help me paint during another <a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/2011/02/20/ill-take-life-with-a-side-of-normal-please/" target="_blank">particularly crazy busy time</a> when we moved out of our old house into my parent&#8217;s place to get ready for our upcoming trip.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3512.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4077" title="IMG_3512" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3512-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>In attendance was special guest, <a href="http://mealsandmovesblog.com/" target="_blank">Janetha, from Meals and Moves</a>. (Thank you for the group shot Janetha!)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3507.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4082" title="IMG_3507" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3507-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Here is a fun little fact.  Janeetha and I met years ago on an online Body For Life forum before we both even knew about health blogs. I was so happy to finally meet her in person!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3503.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4083" title="IMG_3503" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3503-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>I also got to meet the precious <a href="http://www.edeneatseverything.com/" target="_blank">Eden from Eden Eats Everything</a> who I hope doesn&#8217;t mind being called precious but in my mind it&#8217;s perfect description.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3500.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4086" title="IMG_3500" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3500-200x300.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://fancythatfancythis.com/" target="_blank">The lovely Ameena from Fancy This Fancy That</a> and her adorable daughter Maya were also in attendance.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4079" title="IMG_3510" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/IMG_3510-300x198.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="198" /></p>
<p>It was a perfect afternoon break from the <a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/2011/09/19/5000-miles-to-crazy-town/" target="_blank">current chaos of my life</a> and as I watched everyone leave I felt happy thinking about things like our patch of picnic under the trees on this giant spinning sphere of matter.</p>
<p>Hugs and High Fives,<br />
