I'm still pulling my thoughts together on BlogHer. B-friend thinks I need to pull away from my computer for a day and fulfill my promise to start having a life again, so I refrain from writing one of my lengthy diatribes today. But I'm off to the East Coast first thing tomorrow morning--it's a mighty long plane ride. Hope you'll have a few minutes...
I'll just say this: I am BLOWN AWAY by women--my co-horts who helped plan this event. The women whom I've been reading whom I met in the flesh, and the women I now will be reading. I was impressed with the men who were there who took it all in. I was impressed with the little green leaves the catering staff used to garnish the cookies we had at break time. But alas, I'm getting into petty details, the sort of stuff I save for longer posts. Hold tight.
....and a well-deserved sleep at that! Bravo honey, and congratulations on an outstanding conference. Now go give your sister (who's dying to find out all the details on BlogHer) and that sweet baby girl (who looks like her Aunt Jory) a big hug. Even though you're booked up with some things in NY, please find some time to JUST crash, rest, enjoy....I love you ((((((((((this much))))))))))))!!!

I so wish I could have gone. If there is a next year, maybe I'll be able to swing it. The baby will be older and not so baby-ish.

Congrats on a hugely successful conference, Jory! Well done! I'm reading rave reviews everywhere I look. P.S. Jesse's adorable...saw him on Beth Kantor's blog. :)

Congrats on such a GREAT conference, Jory! I loved meeting you. You are so incredibly sweet and cute I just wanted to fold you up and take you home in my little BlogHer bag.
I have so many thoughts about BlogHer I want to share later, but I had to come here and tell you how very much I enjoyed meeting you and talking to you! (And impressed you will associate yourself with the "foul mouthed Mommy Bloggers!" HA!)

Jory... have you ever known what it felt like to change someone's life? That's what you did to mine. I hope that knowing that makes you feel as good as your invitation for me to speak on the "Naked" panel at BlogHer has made me feel.
Now, go and get some *rest*! ;-)
