The People's Party! And you are invited!

Everyone loves a party.

Everyone loves to be invited to a party.  So...

We are having a party! And you are absolutely invited!

Yeah, even you.  And you.  And your friend.  And your friend's neighbor.  And your mother's uncle, though what he'd be doing at BlogHer, I don't want to know.

That's what all of our teasing was about.  And it was so worth it because...

Along with a little help from our friends from

So, do you wanna come?

Leave a comment or email me and let us know if you plan to attend so we can be sure to have plenty of goodies for you.  If you forget to tell us or decide at the last minute, we'd still love to see you!  You know where to find us now, right?

The People's Party! Your Party!

The night before BlogHer...  so we can completely wear ourselves out directly before they expect us to pay attention to important bloggy goodness.

Because, honestly...
I'm really just going to BlogHer so that I can meet you. Yeah, you.

Can't come to BlogHer this year?  I feel you, I'm not sure how I'm going to make it, either. 

But don't fret...  this dame has something in the works for you folks at home, too!

You are excited now, no? *********

Psst....  Want to throw your company's name into the party? Help keep all of these lovely bloggers in drinks and fanfare?  email me and we can talk about how you can participate, too.  This is The People's Party, after all, and the people tend to consume a lot of, ahem, goods.

My first time here (came via Jess) - came to say I'm IN.

I had to ask my BlogHer roomie (HeatherB) who the sposors were - we don't have the "Sprout" brand in BC :)

[Julie Pippert]

And me too. I could never miss anything in which Jenny is sporting camo, fatigues and hair curlers, with a hairdryer. I hope it's that $500 one with jeweled handle.

I'm here (a) of my own volition, (b) via Izzy, Jen and Jenny.

[Amy]

Well since you're going to Blog Her just to meet me, it would be rude not to go to your party. See you there !

[Jenny, Bloggess]

Darn. I don't think I can make it.

Kidding.

If you can't find me I'll be hiding in the bathroom or passed out in a corner.

[lildb]

I'm only coming if I can bring my alter-ego, Boozy McHoochalot.

Which is all to say, I will be there and very, very drunk.

Wheeee! Party!!!

[MeL]

I am soooo in, I'm practically already there. I'll be the crazy pregnant redhead drinking something appropriately virgin but still probably shouting "show us your BOOBS!" at random intervals.

If I didn't already do it everytime I sneeze, I would probably pee my pants a little in anticipation.

[BOSSY]

And Bossy's name isn't on the invitation because... why isn't Bossy on the invitation again?
