Yes, it’s time to leave BlogHer 07 in the past. Truthfully, it was better than I expected. I wasn’t expecting much from this years conference because some there were going to be some notable absences from the guest list (and yes, Brit, I’m talking to you) (you too, Cagey). I didn’t feel the same excitement I had felt before last years conference. Maybe it was my lowered expectations that helped me to really, really enjoy myself. And I find myself feeling a little sorry for those who didn’t attend (not the ones who COULDN’T, the ones who DIDN’T; there’s a difference) even if they don’t themselves feel sorry (perhaps more so if they don’t). If they judged this year on last year’s conference (like I was doing, admittedly), then they missed out. But anyhow, my point here is that it’s time for me to put BlogHer 07 in the past and move on with my life. I feel as though I’m stuck in quicksand. I don’t quite know what I can say but yet I’ve been saying a lot, you know? And you all are probably beyond bored with my nonsensical musings by now.
(I can’t help but wonder why some have stayed very quiet, for the most part, about BlogHer and I think it must be because of the overwhelming nature of it all. That or the knowledge that it is a boring subject for those who weren’t there. I just want anyone who is reading who wasn’t able to go to know that YES, it is worth it. If you are considering going next year, PLAN on it. It’s so, so worth it.)
I can’t believe that I’m leaving home yet again on Friday. I feel like I’m only just now getting back into the groove of things here in Reno and now I’ve got to pack my bag (not that it’s been entirely unpacked yet) again and leave home. Again. True, I’ll be leaving with my family and we’ll be going to see more family. And it’ll be fun, yes. But I’m a homebody at heart and leaving my home makes me feel all icky inside. Especially since I feel like I just got back here, you know? And I hate living out of a suitcase. I desire stability and living an unstable life just doesn’t jive with me. At least my parents have DSL now that I can hack log into. I won’t be entirely shut off. And they have a pool which is definitely the highlight of Harry’s visit right now. And it won’t be too long (Monday evening) until I’m back at home and things can (really) start getting back to normal.
And I definitely won’t be talking about BlogHer next week either. Count on it.
