Big City Mama

Indianapolis may seem like a big city to some of you. And not city intimidates me, except for New York.  I am horrible with understanding accents, good with directions but only if i am driving.  YIKES!

So yes, I am going to NYC tomorrow!  I am going for TJ Maxx’s Red Carpet Event for the Holidays.  I really couldn’t be any more excited.  Probably driving people on Facebook crazy with updates.

I can drive to Chicago alone, no problem.  Atlanta? No problem.  L.A. No problem.  NYC?  EEEEK.  subways.  what do I do?  hah!

I remember the first time I took the “L” in Chicago I was a little nervous but not too bad and it turned out ok.  I always seem to travel to places alone which is fine, but New York? I requested a chaperone but they thought I was kidding.  I did too at first. Now I am looking up directions and I am wondering how I can make sure I get off at the right stop.  I mean heck, i am not paying more then $2 to get to the city since I don’t have to!

But alas, my whole point of this post wasn’t to express my anxiety, but to tell you I will be gone for two days!  I do have some posts The-Big-Applescheduled, so no one should go through withdraw or anything.  =)

And i will pick a batch of winners as soon as I get back, either Friday or Saturday.

if you want to keep up, I will be tweeting as the journey goes along with the hashtag #TJMaxxRedCarpetEvent I think Twitter still has my tags blocked from searches, so just pull me up!  @PrissyGreen

And get this I will not only be hanging with TJ’s coolest crew, but also with Carol-OKE with the cast of Glee!  I started to catch up on the show on Hulu last night.  (shhh, don’t tell them I haven’t been watching since it first aired!)

Be prepared for lots of pictures, stories and maybe even video!  I wish I could bring each of you back something!

OH, and wish me luck at just packing a backpack….and only taking my Hip Bag.  (ya know the hip bag Fiona from Burn Notice wears?)  God I love it!    Not even checking a bag.  As hard as that is since most of my items don’t have sample sizes, I am bound and determined to make it work!

Wish my luck!  and of course FUN!  off to pack!
