The BlogHer Drinking Game
This here is the official site (I can call it that because, well, no one else is) of the I’m Not @ BlogHer drinkers. I think I’ll be a wuss and have pina coladas, but feel free to drink whatever is in your liquor cabinet or fridge. We’ll start Friday night and finish up on Sunday afternoon. You may feel free to take a drink every time you read these words: awkward, anxiety, popular, hugs, clique (from the anti-blogher peeps), cry, happy, naked (I’m gay, I can hope), funny hat (yes, Danah Boyd is a lovely person, but it was a funny hat), beer, drink, pool, The Worm, etc.
Since thunderstorms are forecast for the weekend, Leigh-Ann and I won’t be able to go out anywhere, so I’ll sit at my desk looking for blogher pictures at Flickr and new posts from bloghers who have travelled with their laptops. It’s the least I can do. It’s probably the most I can do too.
I hope all of the BlogHer bloghers have fun and don’t spend any of their time worrying about what the (whiny baby ass) bloggers who aren’t going say. I think getting bloggers together is cool.
(I should do something about my addiction to parentheses, huh?)

I’m glad someone had more initiative than I to set this up.
You are gonna blog the dunkeness, right?
(though I may still have Caleb, so I am not sure how drunk I may get)
On an interesting side note, I got interviewed to potentially appear in an article about St. Louis GLBT bloggers. I told them that it’s not the main focus of my blogging, but they asked anyway. Then again being a mom isn’t the main focus of my blog and I’m still called a mommy-blogger.
I’ll send you a link if I’m featured. I really don’t know why I would be though.Jack's Raging Mommy on 07/26 at 01:04 PM -
I will blog the drunkenness, although I have difficulty drinking enough to ever get drunk. It usually starts to make me sick before I get drunk. Shhhh.
Congrats about the potential interview. And, I guess for shorthand, any mom who has a blog gets pushed into the mommy blogger category. I wonder if I’d be a GLBT blogger, even though I have absolutely no focus whatsoever here.

I’d love to be invited to be a member of the Giant Lettuce Bacon & Tomato blogging community… it sounds delicious.

*sigh* I am such a dork, I don’t drink, but I’ll eat mass quantities of homemade cherry-vanilla sorbet.
I don’t even blog. I’m just the weirdo that reads a number of blogs every morning to start my day. I’d love to go to Blogher, but since I don’t blog, I’d stand outside the hotel, wondering who was who. Then I’d be embarrassed because I’d feel like a stalker.
Then, of course, I’d go to the nearest bowling alley and look for hot women doing the Worm!

Oh, don’t be silly, you’d have a great time at Blogher. Kari (karianna.clubmom.com) didn’t have a blog before she went to Blogher last year.
And damn, now I want a BLT.
Oh yeah, it looks like the anxious & happy posts/Flickr pix have started, so the drinking may commence as soon as it is safe in your homes to do so. We need to drive across town to the doggie opthalmologist in the afternooon, so no drinks until early evening at the earliest, in our household.

Wow, I’m a lousy BlogHer drinker. After taking two of the dogs to the vet today in the hot hot heat, we picked up Strawberry Frappuccinos on the way home. Now, I feel like if I drink, I’ll either feel sick or immediately fall fast asleep. I am so tired.
