The Question of Time and BlogHer 09 and GlittHer 09
I really, really, really, really want to post about BlogHer and all the wonderful people I met and, and, and… but when one lands smack dab into real-life… I mean, real-life kicked in with a vengeance, so did my hangover. Two days after. Who knew. Maybe the BlogHer hangover should be called The HangovHer… crazy much? I can’t even post that pic, but I am just shameless enough to link to it.
You must be asking, “Why, Jenny, why don’t you have time to write a much-anticipated obligatory BlogHer 3-Part Post?” Because of nonsense like this:
We have to buckle up stuffed animals now. “We” (the 4 year-old) also have to throw fits because lil’ Bunny Pooh right here doesn’t quite fit in the seat belt and MUST be VERRRRY uncomfortable, but she needs to be buckled…. etc, etc, etc… *sigh* The buckling and fretting over Bunny Pooh’s comfort just. might. kill. me. Who has time for this? And I refuse to buy Lil Miss Bunny Foo-Foo here a booster. Re. Fuse.
So. In the meantime, here is a little spoonful of goodness from BlogHer ’09. I may start callin it “GlittHer” because, well… Look, here’s my glitter GlittHer posse:
Oh my gosh! Is there a sponsor(s) out there who would like to help me and mah posse pull off a a GlittHer ’10 partay in NYC next year???!!! *light bulb moment*
I digress…
From left to right… meet the Awesome bloggers of: Liz of This Full House, Diana Of the Princess and the Pea, Shannon of Phat Mommy, and the Dynamic Duo (of whom I will devote one post to just those home-girls!) Chris and Kim of 3 Giraffes! And then me. I might be under-dressed. *scratches head* I am just head-over heels about these ladies. I met 3 Giraffes last year, and we rode the party plane to BlogHer. I met Diana last year too! I just met the Shannon and Liz this year, and have a bit of a crush on them. Just quality women who bring a smile to the face and heart.
But who did I live with? These ladies! (sans Amy, *pout*).
From left to right: Kelly of Mrs. CPA, Me, Sheila of And All The Jones Men, and Jessie of Mrs. Ca. We had another gal too – Amy of Ashley and Audrey. I know I’ll find a pic somewhere! (BTW, that bag hat and bagged bottle of wine are MINE. I just let Mrs. CPA borrow them for the pic. She would not stoop to such levels. FUnny tho, I don’t remember letting go of that bottle. Thot I had a death grip. Oh well, seems I forgot a lot about that evening 
…
I had NEVER met any of these ladies before. Never. 5 of us lived in BlogHer harmony… in one room. I tell ya folks, it can be risky. I feel the most blessed because I think I had the greatest potential to tick those ladies off. I was always the last to come home, and as much as I hate to admit this, I am pretty high-maintenance. It’s all the hair. It takes forever to dry, and I actually wore make-up. I realized it takes me all too long to actually get ready. I never spend that kind of time at home… I mean, Bunny Pooh could care less if I put on mascara.
Anywho. My BlogHer 09 roomies were truly made out of Awesome. So gracious and patient and hilarious. Thank you ladies for letting me invade your space and I’m sorry if you are having a hard time getting rid of that glitter. It’ll all eventually go away. Eventually. Prolly. I hope. Don’t hate me. Pweese…
I so wish I could go on about all the great people I met right this very moment. *sigh* Since I cannot, I figured I start with the people I spent the most time with. Cute-little cheeky kisses, hugs and spritzes of glitter to all of you!

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

It was so AWESOMELY RAD to meet you. I just watched your outtake video and (OMG) the Swine Flu mask video on You Tube. I totally love you. A lot.
xoxoxo
Looks like a fabulous group of gals!
Can I tell everyone that you are really a sweetheart under all that glitter? You have an awesome shoulder to lean on. Even without the tatttoooo…..
Too funny, Jenny. I enjoyed reading this!
Looks like you had a blast! Maybe someday I will be able to join all you fabulous ladies in the Bloggin crowd.
Glad you’re back, though. The sun didn’t sparkle without you(I think there might have been a glitter shortage).
Let me know where the GlittHer party is gonna be. I’ll be there with bells on. And glitter. LOVED meeting you, my darling!
It was SO great meeting you and thank you for giving me the chance to let my hair down, a little, if I had any, really long hair, I mean
You need to know that not only did I think you had the best glitter-filled business card, but my-coworkers thought so to. They made a beeline for yours when I had a pile of them out on my desk. Glitther ’10! I’m there!
I’m so glad we met and could spend some time together. Thanks most of all for listening to me go on about why I hate having my picture taken. Remember? “I got issues.” I bet you’re sorry you asked. Oh, wait. You didn’t and you STILL listened to me!
Love you!
