BlogHer rocked. And I only went for one day. I can only imagine how much cooler it would have been if I could have stayed longer.
I met some of my favorite bloggers…and new bloggers.
Misty’s Laws, JM the Accidental Stepmom, Me, Go Jules Go
I got so much swag. For example…
Why, yes, I did receive a free Trojan vibrator at BlogHer.
I ate so much free food. And bloggers gave me presents. Presents are always welcome. Thanks, Misty and Jules!

And no one was wiser to your mauled ear!

Woooot! Honestly I knew the cat ‘stache glasses ruled, but I did not appreciate how much until you put them on.
I am soooo all over BlogHer ’13! And thanks so much for linking to the other posts – I need to check out Jen’s and Amy’s!

Those glasses rocked! I luuuuve them!

Fun times, fun times.
I like that the only think you highlighted out of the swag bag was the vibrator. Naughty kitty.
August 10th, 2012 at 1:47 pm
Well, I had already eaten all the sweets….
August 9th, 2012 at 7:55 am
Free food tastes better!
August 9th, 2012 at 8:01 am
Free vibrator? ha!
Still, I doubt I’ll make it to Chicago either but a girl can dream.
August 9th, 2012 at 9:43 am
Darla, you HAVE to go. Or we could get Blogher moved to Maine??
August 9th, 2012 at 8:30 am
So jealous of the vibrator!
Wish I could have gone. Next year.
August 9th, 2012 at 9:11 am
Your kitty stache picture is my favorite!
August 9th, 2012 at 9:38 am
BlogHer 2012? Oh HELLZ yeah! That was the grestest week ever. SO glad I finally got to meet you in person.
August 9th, 2012 at 9:46 am
The free Trojan vibrator…words escape me. Did you get cat food, too? Because everyone knows women writers must be cat-owning, sexually frustrated spinsters.
August 10th, 2012 at 1:48 pm
No way was I giving Esme cat food after the ear debacle!
August 9th, 2012 at 10:31 am
Way to go on the free humdinger! BlogHer Looks like a BLAST.
August 10th, 2012 at 1:48 pm
It was awesome!
August 9th, 2012 at 11:00 am
I had no idea what BlogHer was, so I didn’t even look at it until a week before it started.
I think I may be able to swing Chicago next year… It IS pretty close to where I was born, I should visit more often than every 17 years.
August 10th, 2012 at 1:49 pm
Now you have to go. I’m going to harass you about it.
August 9th, 2012 at 1:29 pm
This is me not commenting because I’m still pouting.
August 10th, 2012 at 1:49 pm
Go eat a Pop-Tart. It’s on me.
August 9th, 2012 at 3:00 pm
Fun!
August 9th, 2012 at 3:03 pm
Sounds like such a fabulous time
Loving it!

I love me some Chicago!! That makes it even more tempting.
August 9th, 2012 at 10:45 pm
Thoughtsy, I almost could have met up with you. You see, I actually registered for this year’s BlogHer, way back in August of last year, after BlogHer 2011. But then this opportunity to go to Europe came up, so I skipped out on BlogHer. Sigh. Looks like it was lots of fun. Would have loved to have met you.
August 10th, 2012 at 1:50 pm
I would have gone to Europe, too. Next year!
August 10th, 2012 at 6:29 am
Glad you had fun! Wish I lived over there!
August 10th, 2012 at 1:50 pm
Free vibrators!? What a steal!
August 10th, 2012 at 5:18 pm
“Hi, can I have over 500 Trojan vibrators?…don’t give me that look, it’s for a convention.”

Dear Thoughts,
I am over here from Dockfam!!!
Great place you have here.

I can’t say with 100% certainty that I’ll be at the 2013 conference, but it’s sure my intention to give showing up my darndest! (I wouldn’t have even dreamed about it a week ago, but after reading this year’s attendees’ posts . . . I am sold!)
August 13th, 2012 at 2:44 pm
I have heard so many good things about this BlogHer. I feel like I need to get more informed and go next year. Chicago is so close to me. Plus, WHO DOESN’T WANT A FREE VIBRATOR?
August 14th, 2012 at 2:14 pm
Looks like you had a great time. It is always so much fun to meet up with bloggers in real life.

Someday, I swear it – I will actually make it to BlogHer. My bro lives in Chicago – maybe I’ll force a family reunion and go to BlogHer next year…
August 17th, 2012 at 2:33 pm
Did I miss something? Where are you? Are you ok? Your mother-aged blog friend worries. I hope you’re just off somewhere enjoying your . . .uh. . . free gift?
August 17th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
I am seeing BlogHer everywhere and I am super jealous that I wasn’t there. It looks like you had such a fun time! I’ma get there… and I’m gonna make BlogHer my bish and I am growing my own ‘stache for it! (Although, the ‘stache will likely be filled in tonight while I sleep. Then I guess all I have to do is play the waiting game until BlogHer2013!)
August 21st, 2012 at 2:22 pm
Omggg,
blogher sounds much better than I thought… WOW. Vibrators? That is awesome!!
