#AuthorsWhoMakeMeWantToCryLaughLoveAndPeeMyPantsAllAtTheSameTime

Okay guys. Buckle up. One. Week. From. TOMORROW. Can you feel my excitement bleeding through my words as I type!?!?!? One week from tomorrow I will be at base camp—you know, the lobby of the Chicago Hilton spying a very rare species. Said species is known as: #AuthorsWhoMakeMeWantToCryLaughLoveAndPeeMyPantsAllAtTheSameTime

I bet you didn’t know that was a thing. Well, it is.

Unless you have been living under a rock, you know I am talking about Alice Fucking Clayton accompanied by the snugglicious Enn, C-Lo (not the singer with freakishly short arms who resembles a T-Rex!) Rather, C and Lo or Christina Lauren, and Katy Evans!!!! They are my holy trinity! Yes, I know that there are technically 5 of them but they are MY holy trinity. I cannot even wait. This could go down one of three ways. Let’s explore the ways, shall we?

Option One: I am completely normal and I don’t embarrass myself at all. I act like the dignified, well-educated girl I am. I see my holy trinity, thank them for being made of awesome, and go on about my day with my dignity intact.

Option Two: I popsicle. On sight I completely freeze up, forget my name, forget their names, forget their books. Everything. I freeze. Say nothing. Stand there and just stare like a creepy statue. I might even start drooling on myself. Think Cameron from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.

Option Three: All these weeks of mentally preparing myself—trying to keep my fangirl in check are all for nothing. Nothing! Upon sight of Enn, I drop to the ground and affix myself to her leg and beg her to love me and never leave me. Upon sight of Alice, I start cursing as if ‘Fucking’ really is her middle name. OMFG, you are Alice Fucking Clayton!!! All while I am at her feet bowing to her greatness. Oh shit. And then there’s C and Lo—which one do I assault first? Looking back and forth to the both of them so quickly like I have some form of Tourette’s all while babbling about Will and the decapitated baby Jesus and Twilight and OMG, I may go on forever. And then there is Katy. Tears. There will be big, fat tears!!!! Proceeded by me blathering on and on and on until she thinks I’m one of the adults from Charlie Brown talking. Oh dear. Hives. There may also be hives as the fangirl escapes. Oh dear. This could be bad.

Soooooo….I’m pretty sure there’s a 33.333333% chance of one of these options coming to fruition in a little over a week! I mean, this is a rare species!!!! What do you think a scientist does when he or she makes a great discovery like said rare species?!?!? It’s kinda like that! Oh God!!! Lo is a scientist! She will totally get me! #AuthorsWhoMakeMeWantToCryLaughLoveAndPeeMyPantsAllAtTheSameTime

Okay…you can go ahead and take bets as to how this is going to play out. I, for one, cannot wait!!!! I promise—this will be twittervised! Unless…well…of course, I fall victim to Option Two. Stay tuned beautiful people. Stay tuned. :)
