Four of us
mamas are off to the BlogHer conference in Chicago this Friday, July 26. As the week is winding up, I am getting a bit
anxious about what I should bring to this conference, and thought it might be
an interesting exercise to blog about it. Here we go.
Well, there
are the basics, which I am not going to list, like toiletries, perfume, undies,
and a grown-up bra. And some Spanx, of course!
I was
debating about bringing my computer. Being that we are going to a blogging
conference, I thought it was a necessity, but my computer is ancient and weighs
twenty pounds. So I opted for a pad of paper and a couple of nice pens. One of
the other mamas will have to bring a computer since we are planning to blog
while we are there.
There are two
major parties at the conference, and this took me by surprise. And made me
think I have nothing to wear — damn! We’ve decided to go out for dinner on
the Friday, just the ladies, so I can wear something I already have. But this
party Saturday night at the conference — the pictures show women in very
formal gowns and such. I first off do not own a gown, and second off…I am in no
shape to fit into a form-fitting beauty from some high-end shop. So I used some
birthday money and picked up a cute dress and shoes that I hope do the trick.
Finally, I
plan to bring my camera. I have been very lazy about taking photos these days
and I want to participate in the digital camera seminar at the conference. I
plan to take photos, Mamas! But the ones that are just for us will stay that
way. : )

P.S. Tightrope Mama, bring your
breast pump!
