BlogHer Pics (Part 1)


Me & my new bud, Laurie @ Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco.

Still getting caught up since BlogHer, but kind of slow at it. (But then I'm not too swift with most things.) I finally started uploading the pics I took to Flickr. It seems that's what most people are doing. If you go to Flickr and do searches for either BlogHer, BlogHer '06, or BlogHer 2006, you'll see what most everyone with a camera caught in and around the conference. I even typed in my name and some pics of me showed up as well, which was kinda cool. (A little eerie, but cool.)

I've had a Flickr account for over a year, but never uploaded any personal photos. I've always just used it as a repository for stuff that went up on my Blogger blogs (before Blogger let you upload photos), or other stuff—that I learned later was against Flickr policy (no porn, I promise).

Anyway, here's the link if you'd like to check them out. It's still a work in progress as there are only a few up now.

I Heart BlogHer

BlogHer
I was going to write a post titled, "BlogHer Bound," before my trip to California for the BlogHer Conference, but I was way too stressed to sit and write anything at that time. I've actually been terrible about writing anything consistently here, and as for my other blogs, fugedaboudit! (But that's nothing new). What makes it so much more shameful this time is that I was due to be on a panel talking about one of them, which only added to the stress since I hadn't posted to it in 2 months.

The overwhelming feelings of undeservedness and unpreparedness (considering that the Conference was paying for my trip), the fear of public speaking (did you know most people would rather be dead?), my period (which showed up unexpectedly), not to mention, the less-than-perfect pedicure that I PAID for (you really can't tell from a distance, but that's not the point).

Despite all the anxiety, everything turned out as well as everyone said it would—maybe even better. For now, all I'll say is that BlogHer rocked! (And I NEVER use that term.)

Stay tuned. More to come. (I promise.)
