I’m really sad about it, in a way I haven’t felt since high school. I feel like there is a big party and I am grounded. Even though I could have brought the baby…I had a scheduling snafu.

For those who say online community doesn’t measure up to offline groups, what’s the explanation for this feeling? And I know I’m not alone.
 There are a fair amount of posts under the topic, “I’m sad I’m not going to BlogHer.”

Anyway, I’m going to try to distract myself from feeling left out. I’m going to:

- Make a healthier red velvet cake (courtesy of my amazing client, the American Cancer Society. The recipe is here if you’re interested.

- Organize the baby’s clothes

- Fill in entries in the baby book!!

- Stay off the internet, because it will make me feel sad

Anyone else? What are you doing when you’re not at BlogHer?
