Stumble it!
Dear wonderful peeps who read this blog,
Went to Blogher with Slackermommy(who is an AWESOME roommate btw.) So many amazing, fascinating, smart, strong, sexy women who blog. And so little time! Sorry for not posting about this sooner. I need to update my linky list. (Not only adding peeps from BlogHer but other bloggers in general.) Oh and then there’s photos… Once I find the cable to plug the camera into the ‘puter. Photos will come. Promise.
Take care,
L.
P.S. Did you notice? Midwestern Mommy has a new “home” @ www.midwesternmommy.com
Dear fellow BlogHers,
I can’t adequately describe what it was like to meet ya’ll. But I’ll try… Amazing! Phenomenal! I can’t help but gush about how freaking cool so many bloggers are. in real life!
Just so you know… I’m a painfully shy person (except around family and friends I’ve known forever). While I was DYING to meet ya’ll the thought also induced alot of anxiety. Will you think I’m a moron? Will you like me? I hardly ate — my anxiety levels were through the roof. This would be why I often came off as a ditzy, socially-retarded dork. I was often tongue-tied and clumsy. (But dude, I lost 2 pounds due to the nervousness and Adrenalin!)
There were more bloggers I was wanting to meet but I couldn’t muster the courage to do so. Please don’t think I’m snotty. That’s not me at all.
And meeting new bloggers to read? Wow. What an amazing gift.
Take care and am loving all of the BlogHer photos and posts!

If I didn’t worship the adorable ground you walk on (yes, even your ground is adorable), I would be MAJORLY ticked you somehow LOST weight last weekend. Some gals have all the luck!

Oh, I’m so jealous! I would have love to go…can’t justify the expense at the moment…
Sounds great tho! I’m like you. I am pretty shy at first. Get to know me tho…. :O

Hello! It was wonderful to meet you too.. and I agree Slacker-Mom is totally an awesome roomie and I didn’t even room with her… but I digress… all I have been thinking about is how much fun Blogher will be next year because we won’t have all the anxiety of our ‘1st time’ to deal with. That way we can get to the comfy friendly part faster.
Take Care!!

The pleasure was mine. You are a delight!

I really enjoyed hanging out with you. You were not a dork! I too get overwhelmed meeting a lot of new people. Luckily we had Amber to keep us in line!

Crossing my fingers that you are able to upload your pics soon! I can’t wait to see ‘em! And — I am sure you were more of a social butterfly than you realize, silly!

It was lovely to pet you… I mean, meet you. It was lovely to meet you. I think. I can’t remember. Argh.
Seriously, i do remember meeting you on at least two occasions but it wasn’t enough time!

Hey, it’s looking very stylish around here!
Just like YOU I might add. Psyched I got to meet you — not psyched it was all too briefly. Here’s to next year!

Hiya!
I had a great time hanging with you on that last, fateful night of frolic and fried dough! No, I didn’t lose any weight, either (dang it!) but, I swear I felt like we walked our butts off!
Average Jane on 03 Aug 2007 at 2:55 am #
It was great to meet you! Hope to see you again next year.

Hi there!
It’s strange to find out there were others feeling the same as I was. But … You lost weight? Wha…? I think I gained with all the anxiety! See you there next year 
I loved meeting you at the MM gathering. Your card is by far one of my favorites

I just felt bad for you and your migraine! The weekend was way too short . . .
slackermommy on 04 Aug 2007 at 3:45 am #
Hey, lovey. I loved rooming with you and I miss our late night chats. We were both pretty nervous but I must say you hide it well. You are very kind and graceful. Thank you so much for the card, flowers and cookies that you left today. So very thoughtful of you. The cookies are gone. My butt thanks you.

It’s pretty swanky over here!
I think you hid any nervousness well, you didn’t seem shy or socially awkward at all!
Izzy on 12 Aug 2007 at 4:25 pm #
Will you think I’m a moron? Will you like me?
What? I thought you were ab fab, darlin! Nice, personable, interesting, funny and best of all…real! I throughly enjoyed meeting and hanging out with you and K and I’m so glad i got the opportunity. it’s times like those that i enjoyed the most about the whole trip. I hope you are considering the January trip which promises to be smaller and more intimate. Again, it was an absolute pleasure to meet you. And have you seen my Flickr? Lots of pix of you and K.

I feel like I’m still recovering from BlogHer even though it’s been weeks! It was great to meet you — wish we could have spent more time together. The weekend went by so fast!
