I'm not good at networking and Big Parties, and it seems that those are the highlights. It may not seem that way, but you and I are not alone!

Part of me is curious, you know, in a fly-on-the-wall kind of way. But I know me, after one day I'd be eyeing the exit signs. Too much estrogen under one roof. I'd love to attend something on a smaller scale someday.MomZombiehttp://www.mom-zombie.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078483744873792132.post-57263072716044249412009-07-22T18:10:54.612-04:002009-07-22T18:10:54.612-04:00there was no hidden message or hint in my note ;) ...there was no hidden message or hint in my note ;) <br />we have a grand greyhound and grand chinchilla, though :)<br />- SoccerSisterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078483744873792132.post-5007067574783024842009-07-22T10:47:44.254-04:002009-07-22T10:47:44.254-04:00Smacks of quinine!

There is nothing like that over here. We've only just got a social networking site. We don't really understand it, but The Times has sent a reporter to find out what is going on and report back. The old PR blackout seems to be the main topic of interest, but other things like where are American blogs going is also causing a lot of interest. <br /><br />I like blogs that are strong on content, well written and make me laugh. ie. yours. There are a lot of Mommy blogs that I don't like very much!Dorset Dispatcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10457466586411004146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078483744873792132.post-43732839214512236012009-07-21T15:19:10.395-04:002009-07-21T15:19:10.395-04:00I'm also not going to BlogHer.

(But my likeness is!) <br /><br />And if <b>I </b> were going and you were there, you wouldn't be hanging out in a corner, because I'm totally the type of girl to drag you around and make you have fun. My blog can be kind of a downer, but I'm a hell of a good time. (This is because I'm secretly manipulative and even I don't know I'm doing it. I force people into fun.) <br /><br />We will have fun while they are away.. if we put our heads together (not literally of course, that would hurt) I'm sure we can come up with some fun times.Draft Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16246224435335677407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078483744873792132.post-84080928634574051112009-07-21T12:55:56.523-04:002009-07-21T12:55:56.523-04:00i'll bring you a barrette. ;)

That'd be A LOT worse. And our ears would be ringing after a dose of your blog ;) <br />Besides, if you DID go on a trip to Chicago instead of BOSTON, you would have to deal with a very upset SoccerSister. So what if Boston is 8 to 10 hours further away? At least you'd get free room and board in a very cheerful yellow bedroom! and you COULD bring along the boys to avoid any feelings of guilt or missing them (Good point about the "guiltiness" factor and mothers vs. fathers, etc. I think when we have kids, I will make sure MuttonChopsHubby feels guilty any time he travels away from the kidlets - you know I'm all for egalitarianism ;). <br />- SoccerSisterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078483744873792132.post-568842399359980212009-07-21T12:20:07.550-04:002009-07-21T12:20:07.550-04:00I feel the same.

But in truth there are a ton not going and some cool stuff going on in the mommy blogosphere for those that aren't. I prefer Blissdom anyway. You should look into that one in the fall in Nashville. Much smaller, less overwhelming and FAR less intimidating.thediaperdiarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07031990766224099099noreply@blogger.com
