Robyn’s point is well taken. I sense the pimping and promoting will be “up to 11″ this year.

I like the idea of connecting with others IRL, but I’m steeling myself to not get into a competitive blogging mindset. That sucks the fun right out of it, IMO. My blog has created opportunities for me, but when it comes down to it, it’s for my own fun and interest. See you and your belly there. I’ll let you know how huge it looks. ‘kay?

I wish I was going to BlogHer. While all of you are busy mingling, I’ll be in the middle of some fun stuff at my RE’s office (lol).

Yep, fellow D-lister here too. Maybe I’ll get some energy to work my way to the C-List?!? Should this be bothering me? because now that you brought it up I’m feeling like I should care a little.

Hi Sara,

I am a big fan of Alma and look forward to meeting you. I think the grass is always greener. Folks who have been lured down a path of sponsorships might wish they could write more authentically.

At RookieMoms.com sometimes I feel stuck satisfying the primary readership of brand new scared moms – who I really do want to support – and don’t get to share much of myself because I have grown up from that phase and now have a 2 and a 4 year old and a whole lot more perspective.

I liked this post.

I so wish I was going this year so that we could hang out again. Last year was a bust for me when I went — too much pimping for my taste. I like getting to meet new people that I can connect with. But when it becomes how to pass out your Moo cards in the fastest time possible, then I’m not interested.

Totally bummed that I won’t get to see you and the baby bump.

A “D list mommy blogger” — love that. A perfect moniker for me too!

I always enjoy seeing you. I think just knowing we are familiar with the online world and blogging no matter how much or how little you are “in” it, that is all we need to relate and meet each other and then decide if we want to know a person/blogger more. I have no idea if this even makes sense but in my head it does! I’m thankful for the people I’ve met via blogging, but admit those people I hang on to I love for who they are, not their status or their blog. I am MOST looking forward to hanging out in my room and in the hallways of blogher!

I try to focus on the relationships I’ve developed with people like you and Alma (who commented above) You two are a few of the first bloggers I discovered back in 2006. I strive to just be me. I don’t have enough energy for anything else, lol.

I am so excited to see that you are going to be at BlogHer. All things aside there is nothing more fun that being in a room with a bunch of bloggers!
