If You Lose 10 Pounds and Are Not Going to BlogHer Is That the Same Thing As a Tree Falling In a Forest?

by Jodifur on March 30, 2010

I made my MamaPop Losers goal.  10 pounds.  Wahoo!  I'm now the thinnest I have been since my wedding.  Fantastic.  But the whole point of this thing was to be hot by BlogHer, and I'm not going to BlogHer so it all feels kind of like a big waste.  Like I want to curl up on the couch with wine and cupcakes because while ya'all (What?  Maryland is South) are at Sparklecorn talking about how awesome the MamaPop writers look, I'm going to be at home.  On my couch.  With wine.  And my organic, no sugar, non processed foods.

I will tell you this.  I'm privy to Sparklecorn details ya'all are not, and it is going to be fucking amazing.  That is all I am saying.

What do we think my husband should buy me since he gets to go to his conference and I do not?  I'm thinking sparkly things that come in blue boxes?  Anyone else?

After losing 10lbs and still not going to BlogHer, it is in my opinion that you get SEVERAL blue boxes with sparkly things. Hard work should be rewarded.

You are not going? I am not going either. Maybe we should get together here while our bloggy friends are in NYC!
Congrats on 10 pounds. That’s awesome!!!

Further proof that Maryland is not really in the South. I’m disappointed about BlogHer too. I was hoping to go this year, but then hubby lost his job and that plan went down.

The thing that confuses me most is why you chicks need to be hot for a conference filled with other chicks. You guys puzzle me… Congrats though!

LOL at Out-Numbered’s comment. Don’t worry Jodi, We get it!
Congrats on hitting your goal! A goal like that deserves a reward, AND the sacrifice of your conference for his DEFINITELY deserves something sparkly.
I’m thinking jewelry and some fab shoes to go with them. (or vice versa, I’m flexible like that)

I somehow missed that you weren’t going to be there. Now I’m so sad.

I can’t believe we keep switching years and never have hit a BlogHer together! Sucks.

When I hit my weight loss goal I’m spending a ridiculous amount of money on this fancy self tanning system from Sephora.
It’s not just a lotion. It’s a SYSTEM.
So I can be “jacked and tan” without getting skin cancer!

Of course, if your husband brings you wine and cupcakes that would just bring everything full circle.

The blue box is always best :)

How about a blue box with something sparkly inside, fab shoes, and a great purse as a start? Congrats on making your goal! Glad you live close enough so I can see your hotness IRL even if not at BlogHer!

I wanna know what you get out of your husband? Mine went to Stockholm last year while I was supposed to be at BlogHer. Other than 10 days with the kids, I got squat!
