Women’s Conference
Wow, thank you all for your comments! Okay, I guess I have to do this thing now. So I will. Why not. I plan events for 300 people, what’s a few hundred more? And whole days’ worth of planning and hotel negotiations and sponsors and panelists and OH MY GOD, PEOPLE. So I’ve partnered up [...]
Some BlogHer Suggestions
Okay, so I don’t want to just complain because I really did get some good things out of BlogHer ‘09. I networked a lot and made excellent connections professionally and personally. But I have some ideas for a different conference for women bloggers. My idea is that men would be welcomed too, but it would [...]
BlogHer ‘09 Some Thoughts
My new friend Alicia Eler left really amazing comments on my last post. So I think you should read those. Because they were super-thoughtful and way more articulate than I could have been.
Also, I’m not supposed to be on the internet today. Today, I’m supposed to be doing nothing. Because after 9 days of puking [...]
I Blame Dooce
This weekend I’m identifying as lesbian. Without the having sex with women (or womyn) part. Though according to the magnificent Deb on the Rocks, there’s a campaign among the BlogHer lezzies to get a tongue in one of my orifices. Deb is so charming and kind and beautiful and wonderful and famouser than I am [...]
Plate and Pitchfork
Okay, Ben wants to know about Plate and Pitchfork and as you all know I take requests.
Plate and Pitchfork was amazing. So wonderful. We were at Smith Berry Barn. The event started with a mixer at the front of the farm. We had deviled eggs topped with lamb bacon and some watermelon gazpacho. I didn’t [...]
Progress
Fancyhats and I started painting two days ago. We’ve gotten a ton of work done and now you have to look at the pictures. This is my blue living room. The paint I’m using is so good. It’s Behr Ultra, which has primer in it so there’s no need to do it twice, which is [...]
You Know You Want This
This is how sexxxy I am today. This morning after my meeting with a very important person, I had my eyebrows waxed. Post eyebrow waxing, with my eyebrows red and swollen, I went to Whole Foods and this was my grocery list:
ginger soothe drink
plain bagel
organic Rolaids (for Fancyhats)
and
organic Tom’s of Maine deodorant (for me)
Upon returning [...]
Finished.
I had a CAT scan yesterday because the doctor was worried about acute infections — I had none. What I do have is some anti-nausea pills so that’ll do because I have no time left for this crap.
Tomorrow Fancyhats and I go to Plate and Pitchfork. I’m so excited. We haven’t had a chance to [...]
I Am Not Sick
Nope, I’m really not. NO. Except yesterday the puking started again. To barf off and on for eight days is a little bit scary. Try a lot scary. So I went to the doctor and got some tests done. When the pregnancy one came back negative, I believe I said, “Oh thank you god.”
I dislike [...]
My Ikea Footprint
Okay you guys I had the black plague for five whole days. But I’m back and better than ever.
This morning @seeger posted a link to an article about Ikea. And how bad it is. I’ve not read this article because I’m a fragile flower and I care about the world and I don’t want to [...]
