BlogHer insanity- the photo edition
July 27, 2008
I do not want you to get the impression that I went to BlogHer and that one horrible blogger’s comment made it a bad experience for me. (And can I just say how much your comments and emails meant to me. Wow. You are the best readers ever! I mean it!)
This year’s BlogHer was probably one of the best. Any drama was saved for someone else’s mama. I stayed away from it and it stayed away from me.
I did learn some wonderful things at BlogHer. I shall now share them with you.
Trolley Cars are perfect for amateur pole dancing.

This is the full size picture so that you don’t think I was alone in my insanity. Oh no! White Trash Mom and Busy Mom were just as guilty. Sort of.
(Again, stolen from MamaLoves. And, yes, I do love her!)
Whenever you are given a cheeseburger and have no place to keep it warm, we ladies have built in burger warmers.

Okay, and here is where I confess something. Bib? The Michelin Man? Well, he sorta scares the crap out of me. After a traumatizing encounter in the vendor area where I ran from him and hid behind other vendor tables, I thought we had made peace. Not so much. Sunday…he came racing out of a building to get me again. Okay, he is all puffy and nice and would never hurt anyone. Or so they tell me. But look at my expression. I am SO NOT kidding around here. Go. GO AWAY BIB! (Matt? I do adore Matt. Not Bib.)
(Look! He comes racing out all “happy” and check out Mr. Tire Man all pointing and laughing.)
Of course no BlogHer is complete without a Jennster groping.
I even tried to steal myself a new baby but his mother (Julie of Mothergoosemouse) insisted that I give him back. She said the whole “finders keepers” and “calling dibs” totally does not count with her baby. Bummer because I totally fell in love.
Now don’t we make a cute couple?
And finally we end with a quiz for you. Watch the video and answer the question following.
Lay It Down, Sarge. from mizzjenny on Vimeo.
So here is your question:
What are we doing?
A) Being held captive by a minion of Bib’s.
B) Learning how to get our kids to school on time under any circumstances.
C) Who cares? Raymond was driving.
D) All of the above.
So that is just some of the hilarity that ensued at BlogHer this year. I have a post about the amazing things that blew me away coming up later today, but I thought after the previous post we could all use a laugh and real evidence that I had a blast.

July 27th, 2008 at 6:40 pmFirst, you ROCK that pole! Second, I can’t believe I didn’t get a pic with you. Am so bummed. Miss you.
July 27th, 2008 at 6:53 pmYou don’t like the Michelin man??? Seriously?? But he’s so cute!!
My only issue with him is that he reminds me of me!
July 27th, 2008 at 7:04 pmNice photos. Looks like a fun time was had.
July 27th, 2008 at 7:07 pmThinking that it was a good thing that I wasn’t there.
July 27th, 2008 at 8:14 pmFor the car, I mean. Because I was all about the fun at BlogHer, right?
July 27th, 2008 at 8:15 pmOliver’s been asking about you.
July 27th, 2008 at 8:31 pmThose are great pics…
I never had boobs until I got pregnant with Kya. Now I have somewhere to store my cell phone and keys when I am busy with toddler and don’t want to throw them in the blackhole that is my PURSE! My daughter will even come up and put things she wants to keep in my boobs… cracks me up
July 27th, 2008 at 11:13 pmMy hub is like, why don’t you ever pole dance at home for me? I had SO MUCH FUN with you and Elizabeth. You guys are my flavor of crazy, much like the rest of the crew we were with. I want to do it again next weekend, then go to Betty Ford.
July 28th, 2008 at 12:08 amWell, forget about what that insanely rude witch of a human…you gots a future in pole-dancing, my friend! I’m coming next year with my dollar bills all folded up and ready to go.
July 28th, 2008 at 12:20 amSounds liek such a great time. I want to go next year.
July 28th, 2008 at 9:59 amSo jealous of your cheeseburger warmer. My eight year old daughter recently asked me why I don’t have bumps that come out of my shirt like other ladies. Had I seen this first, I could have told her it is because I eat my cheeseburgers before they get cold.
July 28th, 2008 at 10:00 amGlad you had a good time. The car ride looked too fun!

Looks like you had a fab time.
July 28th, 2008 at 10:08 amThere is no question that you always have a blast. You’re just that kinda girl. Whenever I think of hotel security, I think of you!!!
July 28th, 2008 at 11:34 amHey Jenn, it was so great to see you at BlogHer. Just bummed we didn’t get to talk more but seeing you was a highpoint in the weekend!
July 28th, 2008 at 3:32 pmIt looks like you had an amazing time!
July 29th, 2008 at 9:36 amWOW, looks like you had a great time! I’m a newbie and will be attending the Reach Out Tour in New Orleans. Any advice…other than to stay away from RUDE people! How dare that woman!

July 29th, 2008 at 1:13 pmGROPE THIS WOMAN!!!

July 30th, 2008 at 7:08 pmI wish we’d had more time to chat or have a drink together! But I’m glad we at least got to say a quick little hello and giggle.
July 30th, 2008 at 11:41 pmDamn girl! You looking all hot on that pole.
August 1st, 2008 at 9:40 pmEvery time I see the Blogher posts I soooo wish I would’ve gone. This is a must for next year. Love the pics!
