BlogHer '07

We had a phenomenal time at BlogHer '07. We met so many Wonderful Women (and some Monderful Men!) We stayed at The W, and guess what? We didn't like The W. But we are in good company. Despite our general dislike of the hotel, we must say we do appreciate our request for adjoining rooms was honored and which made things*suite*. Our suite mates were Da Bomb and La Bombe which made the hotel tolerable. (Dancing in the elevator and waving our hands in the air like we don't care helped too).
Although we were running in different directions most of the weekend and barely saw each other, we found out this wasn't such a bad thing. It meant we got to meet twice as many people!
Believe it or not, we are still looking thru every nook and cranny of our luggage and swag, so if we missed you, let us know and we will add you ASAP!

Sarah And The Goon Squad (If you travel with her, do not wear white. Sure, you may think you are safe because your kids aren't traveling with you. You think no one will spill on you. You may be lulled into a false sense of safety. Do not be fooled. Do not drink cranberry juice next to her. She is certain to spill it on you. Trust us. True.)
Izzy Mom (Clothes? She doesn't need clothes. At least this is what American Airlines seemed to believe)
Chicky Chicky Baby (Also an American Airlines Nudist.)
Mom 101 (Devra wanted to move back to NYC after a trip down a Brooklyn-based memory lane.)
Finery In Life (How can we not remember our wordless exchange when Lisa Ling breezed past us on the street. "Was that just..?" and "...Yes. It was." but no words were exchanged, just "a look" between us. Amazing.)
So, what do you do all day? (This is also a question asked of many people, but especially At Home Parents. One possible response is, "Mainly I masturbate. Why do you ask?").
Again, if we missed anyone, or if you think we need to add a sentence about the fun we had with you, let us know! We will be adding more names and remarks until everyone has been included and has a remark.
Howz dat?

"Mainly, I masturbate."
That IS the best response I've ever heard. Mind if I "borrow" it?!
Loved meeting you!!
Did I not give you my card? Or do I not count because I already knew you guys?
Mamma (and anyone else) feel free to borrow the answer. Loved meeting you too!
Sarah,
Go look again. Yes, you gave us your card and you gave us your awesome bottle opener!
Sarah's still drinking.
Adored meeting you :)
It was great meeting you! Hope to see you when you head my way, Devra!
Loved meeting you! Looking forward to your visit.
Dude! That's a LOT of linky love. Thanks for waiting with me at the airport :)
I will never be able to fully thank you, Devra (and Sarah and Izzy), for waiting with me in the airport. I don't care if you are a bad luck charm, I can't wait to see you again. ;)
And my ultra-cool magnet?? If not, I can wing one your way! ;)
BTW, that is one sharp photo! But I never got to meet Aviva!! :O
Haha! My ELF moment. You both rock.
It was fabulous to meet you both.
I *used* to live in D.C. Does that count?
You know I love ya baby! DC here I come (next year)
Wow! That is one big linky list. Thanks for the love.
Thanks for the link, it was great to see you, too! Two years now, two BlogHers, and still never enough time to just talk to each other! Maybe next year :)
Devra...have hilarious photo of you from the Children's Museum. I'll be sending it your way!
Hanging around blabbing and exchanging business cards at BlogHer is the most hot and sweaty fun you can have with your clothes on.
Thanks for the link!
3tbgcc Please write anything else!
Nice Article.
Devra, you are the funniest woman alive. I met you at the MomCentral event on Thurs night (and a few other times, but alas, the martinis blur my memory). GREAT job as a panelist, and thanks for making me laugh. by the way, my husband did an awesome job parenting our little girl.
huh. nice style :))
