Yes, I’m wayyyy late on the registration process, but I am going to BlogHer. I got a Day 2 pass (we’re talking about July 29 here), and I will über hardcore be there. (Thanks to Jess Brown for pointing out that there was still a ticket I could buy!) And yes, the full weekend pass was sold out, but it’s all good because there’s a party for the Technical Writing department on Friday, and I am going back to school in the fall so I ought to make an appearance and beg for college drop-out mercy. (Okay, so I’m really only planning on taking one class in the fall… but at least I’ll be in the system!)And that Sunday, I intend to be on Grace Davis’s couch talking about all that is chicky and bloggy with other WoolfCampers at the WoolfCamp Afterglow. Moreover, I will be car-sitting during that time, so I’ll actually have transportation to get to all these events scattered across the Bay Area. And possibly even sleep in my own bed every night. How phenomenal!

I flew in last night to heavy rain in Boston.I showed up and surprised my mother this morning for Mother’s day (she thought I was coming Thursday…). It was wonderful. And now, our state of New Hampshire is underwater.Towns are closed. (Closed! They’re closing towns!)Rivers are up 10 or 15 feet. Bridges are collapsing. These people have never experienced this. Ever.I’m just… in shock. I don’t know what to feel. I just flew into a natural disaster. It’s awful.Happy Mother’s Day.
