I’m going and my company is sending me. So the weekend is really all about work for me. Granted, it’s work with some fun parties and lovely ladies, but work nonetheless.

I guarantee you won’t hear any SQUEE-ing from me. But I can’t say the same for the other 1200 women going.

Come to lunch with us at Dick’s dude. We have room for everyone at our table!! If you play your cards right, I might just buy you a cheese stick or something cause Casey says you are the awesome and stuff.

I’ll be at BlogHer. I’m so excited to meet all the bloggers we’ve worked with and many more. Excited to just network with a fabulous group of people that have so many great ideas and so much energy.

Will be definitely at SocialLuxe lounge – who’s want to miss that? but otherwise my family’s in Chicago so getting away during the day is the most I’ll be able to swing. I’ve been to exclusive parties before at ABC and let me tell you – they are the most boring ones! Bigger/more inclusive = definitely more fun!

i will be at blogher. and i could care LESS about the cliques. i was above that in high school and still am. free agent, baby. if you don’t want to meet me (and i mean the masses you) then fine. the clique bitchfest that i’m sure will be there…can kiss my ass. just like at my 20th high school reunion. i’m not nervous for this. because i know who i am and what my blog is. i also know that i have really, really, really great and amazing blog friends who will hang out with me. i might be shy but i’m NOT insecure. and i’ll be damned if i’m going to let a blogging conference change that.
and if i get so beyond disgusted with the behavior of the women, chicago offers some great places to tour.

I definitely think there will be a shift in what I think as a small inclusive group of my friends once I get to Blogher. I guess that’s why I am excited about the small intimate setting of other conferences such as SITScation.

I do look forward to meeting you!

I finally managed to make my way to BlogHer. I’m really really excited and reading this post made me feel a bit… well… disappointed?

So far, everyone I’ve met in this journey of social media and blogging, have been so amazingly supportive. They support my business, my designs, my attempts at finding sponsors. (which I did)

They support my family, vote for me in silly contests, share my laughs and my sorrows. Even you Jessica, I include you in all of that too. I’m just me… a mom and a friend out there to have some fun and yes… learn something by going to this conference.

Ok… this is getting lengthy, but I will be at Lobby Con… watching the sessions from streaming video, but able to get on the expo floor and parties. I’m hoping to find the doors wide open… not slammed in my face. *kiss kiss* See you there! Blinders and all!

I’m a newbie and I’ve heard several stories of BlogHer’s reputation for cliques. I’ll do what I did in high school… try to meet as many as I can but just let things flow naturally and flock with those I gravitate to. :)
