Last of the BlogHer Posts… Promise
‘m feeling a bit blocked in writing lately. So, here’s the final roundup of my thoughts and doings and pictures from BlogHer… And then I think I’m done and moving on.

On Saturday, I finally got to meet Dooce. I almost didn’t. I walked by her, all the way to my tower elevator. I stopped, turned [...]
Stories from BlogHer08
As I mentioned in my disclaimer, I smoke. Which means I go outside, yes? Homeless people have been asking me for money. And when I say that, I mean every.single.time. 3-4 a time. I don’t have it to give to them - so I would simply smile, say I’m sorry I don’t [...]
Hey! A Picture!
If you wanna see a picture of me - go here. Schmutzie took it.
Checking in After BlogHer08
I’m safely home, and exhausted. I have many stories to tell, but want pictures with them.
Which are in the back of my husband’s car, and he’s at work. “Don’t worry, baby, I’ll get all your stuff out before I go.”
So - gee darn - laundry has to wait, and bills, and driving (my wallet’s in [...]
Thursday
It’s Friday morning… and it’s currently 6:23, so I’m not entirely coherent.
I’m not going to give a blow by blow of the sessions themselves, but everything else, I want to record my thoughts on.
No pictures, ’cause, well, I haven’t brought out my camera yet.
Last night I went to the newbie mixer. I had a [...]
People Watching
I’m sitting at the airport, waiting for boarding.
Next to me is a man with a braid, and real birkenstocks. I had forgotten about those.
I recently saw a gentleman get off a plane who looked exactly like he came out of an 80’s hair band. Long hair, black clothes. He walked with a limp, and had [...]
Want to Reach Me?
If you are going to BlogHer, and want to meetup at some point - or at least just meet - send me an email at sparksfley at gmail dot com. We’ll exchange numbers.
And here’s just a roundup of the places you can see my updates while I’m at the conference. I do, indeed, plan on [...]
Disclaimers are Powerful Tools
So - I wrote a post, my BlogHer Disclaimer, telling you all about my “quirks.”
So far, it’s my most popular post to date. I have never gotten so many comments on one post before.
I don’t know if you all found me somewhere - not seeing a new link, nor am I seeing my post as [...]
BlogHer Prep
OK… The preparations are underway. I’ve mentioned a haircut, and mani pedi. I bought a dress just in case I want to dress up for a party. I’ve got business cards. I’ve exchanged numbers with someone I might babysit for so she can actually speak in her panel (YAY Squoosh baby!)
I still have to decide [...]
BlogHer Disclaimer
So I’m going to BlogHer ‘08 (woot and yay!) in two - TWO - weeks.
I have never met a blogger in person before. I’m especially nervous about this. I’m anxious about the social thing. (what if no one likes me waaaaah) So, figured the best way to attack this was to [...]
