Today was the official start of the BlogHer Conference. I woke up early, got a shower, and headed down to the Newbie Breakfast where I met Danielle from Momotics for some chow. After that, I finally met OuttaJo and we all headed over to the opening speech where they announced that next year’s BlogHer Conference will be in San Diego. Wooooot! Dolphins, here we come!
I've gotten a million compliments on my awesome FuzziBunz t-shirt.
Then I ran into EcoChic and got her on video loving the purple FuzziBunz Cloth Diaper that I gave her. If you’re at BlogHer 10, you’ve still got time to come snag a FuzziBunz from me! And don’t forget to enter the raffle to win a lifetime supply of FuzziBunz or a Flip UltraHD™ Video Camera courtesy of my amazing sponsor!
Then I poked around the Expo Hall and picked up bags full of swag from companies like Assets, Nickelodeon, and Mission. That was tiresome so I headed back to the room to decompress. I’ve been outstandingly exhausted and truly had to get a little cat nap or I wasn’t going to make it to the parties later.
At 6:00 I hopped in a cab with Jill, Danielle, and BabyMakingMachine and headed to what turned out to be a completely boring party.
I mean, oh, except I got this in the bathroom.
That's a Positive Pregnancy Test Right There
I had been meaning to take a pregnancy test, so I grabbed one from the Duane Read across the street from where the party was. I told the girls that I was going to pop into the bathroom to take the test so I knew whether I could get hammered or not. Jill gave me a look like “Oh Gina, you so Cuh-RAzy.” My husband called me as I was sitting on the toilet ripping the test open, and listened while my heart hung in my throat as the two blue lines showed up on the stick. He had bad reception so I had to yell “It’s POSITIVE!!!!” at the top of my lungs in the ladies room. Luckily, he was at a rock club that was just a few blocks from the party we were at, so he hopped over and we had our own celebration.
And now, I go to bed. Have to be up in 7 hours to do it all over again. Feel free to squeeeeeee your congrats to me in the comments section. I’m absolutely beaming with pregnancy excitement right now and cannot concentrate on anything else except visualizing the next 9 months. I need lots and lots of sticky baby vibes too.
