Bless your heart, Tori, I thought I saw you flying over my house…..were you wearing a red dress with black straps? Rest your arms, dear heart, and we will be waiting with baited breath…..well, some kind of breath.

Okay! We’ll let you get some sleep! Welcome home! (Even though we’re not there. Can you still wish someone “welcome home” if you’re not there? So many questions, so little time.)

Full report coming soon– food included (OF COURSE!!)
Just walked in the door after flying all day.
Insert ‘arms tired’ joke here.

Well, I thought, besides having a tremendous amount of character and personal growth, you are pretty talented to be able to take a picture of yourself with your own camera!!!! I’ve found that hard to do. So far, I’ve only got a shot of my bangs—–up really close! But then, I don’t try to get better ’cause WHY would I WANT a close up picture of my face? Can you say “masochist”?

You must have long arms. Lucky.

(I still want to know where you ate, and what. Come on, Tori, give us a restaurant review. Please?)

P.S. I think it shows a tremendous amount of character and personal growth that I am able to post such a butt-ugly photo of myself pointing to reading glasses just to make a point. Seriously. I should go on Oprah and talk about it.

Hey, my momma didn’t raise no dummy, I’m with Linda: Where did ya eat, Sweet Pea? Please don’t tell me you grabbed something from a nearby deli, took a shower and crashed…to be ready for the next day. If they aren’t mommie bloggers, there has to be political bloggers (as Alyson mentioned), but don’t tell me you have those from Fox News who are giving opinions on sex? Hmmmm, I’ve decided you best come home now! Linda will come and finish out your time.

Yeah, we’re all wanting to know more about the conference, blah, blah, blah. But what I really want to know is—–where did you eat last night, what did you eat, was it good, and where are you going to eat tomorrow? I have my priorities.

There are around 1000 women, about 10% (I think) are men. I don’t really know the breakdown, but it is definitely not a mommyblogger conference, maybe not even in the majority. I’m betting BlogHer.com will have that info in a couple of days– I’m interested in knowing that as well!

Just out of curiosity–how many attendees are there? Can you break them down by a percentage–say,more mommy bloggers than political bloggers? Have you met the bloggers you read regularly?
I think I shall take up reporting for a TV station–I ask a lot of questions.
