Is it too late for a BlogHer recap?
It is?
Well, too bad. You’re getting one anyway.
Time flies when you’re having fun. Time also flies when you’ve had an amazing time in New York City, and then come home to a house full of more “fun” (as in whiny kids who are secretly holding a grudge against you for leaving them for almost a week), followed by finding out you’ve been accepted to start training for an about.com job that could possibly throw you into freelance writing further than you’ve ever been thrown before.
(More about that one later, it’s awe-some!)
So yes, time has flown.
That’s not to say I have pushed aside the BlogHer10 trip as if it were some hot one-nighter. As a matter of fact it was so incredible and overwhelming, I haven’t even really been able to process it until now. The entire conference has helped me to reevaluate what I’m doing with my writing career. It has both motivated me to work harder, and scared the pants off of me wondering if I’m good enough. I think that’s a good place to be, when you’re striving for success. It’s no good to be completely unmotivated or feel like you’re the best thing to grace the blogosphere with your presence.
I owe all of the opportunity for refocus and re-motivation to the Lovable Labels crew that made it possible for Michelle and me go to go BlogHer10.
{Excuse Michelle’s and my obvious sleepy-eyes. This was the morning post stripper shoe-napping.}
We had so much fun with these guys. They spoiled us with bringing us to New York, they worried about us and hoped that we were having a great time (we definitely were), they didn’t ask anything from us other than we enjoy ourselves, and wear our super adorable shirts during the conference.
Oh no. I take that back. They did ask one more thing of us…
That’s us, on a stage in front of anyone who was walking by in the expo hall, dancing to Rockafella Skank by Fatboy Slim. Hi-freaking-larious.
I don’t dance. I especially don’t dance in front of other people. I am incredibly self-conscious, perpetually that chubby humdrum-looking girl standing awkwardly on the edge of the dance floor trying not to look like a dork.
Dancing with them, though… that was fun.
And, to my surprise, I totally Rockafella’d their booties and got the highest score.
Go figure.
Alright, there’s one short and sweet recap from my BlogHer10 trip with Lovable Labels. I’ll have at least one more in the next couple of days. I have so many pictures to upload to share, I think a photoblog is a must!
