The Mom 2.0 Summit is going on now. I’ve been semi-glued to my twitter (#mom2summit) watching the updates roll in. Everyone’s 140-word updates are making my little brain spin. I love social media! Anyway, it also made me realize I never updated you on the very YUMMY sponsors at BlissDom.
Of course, I was first greeted with my aforementioned Land’s End PINK BAG. Supa cute. It was chock full of books, cds and other paper-y goodness (from Wal-Mart, Sony, Disney and oh baby, Little Debbie). But the best paper was the (also aforementioned) gift certificate for a pair of CROCS. Now, my hubby for some ungodly reason thinks I should use my swag to buy him these:
I, on the other hand, want these:
Alas, they don’t have my size. (But if you are a 9w, RUN– don’t walk over to crocs.com and buy these. They are like 75% off!)
Where was I? Oh yeah, Nashville. BlissDom.
On Saturday morning, after a late night with Asa in a bar (see previous post if you’re disturbed), I ordered room service while Asa napped. The rest of the blissdomees were watching a special secret screening of Yanni Voices. I have actually met Yanni before. I’m sure he cherishes the memory of 16-year old me (and then boyfriend, Steve) stalking him after a concert to get a picture taken. So, even though it’s not exactly my cuppa, I kinda have a soft spot for Yanni.
So, as I was eating my french toast and Asa was snoozing in his pack-n-play, I “watched” Yanni via twitter. Here are a few of the tweets that made me cart a sleeping Asa into the stroller and head downstairs:
So, yeah, two of Yanni’s “voices” were actually AT BlissDom…well, to meet us! After a few questions and one very smokin’ Happy Birthday number, they headed out for a photo opp and autographs! And here’s where I was glad Asa and I were at the back of the room…because I think I was third in line to meet Ender Thomas and Nathan Pacheco!!
Have I mentioned Asa is a great way to meet people?
And for the real picture…

That would be Ender Thomas snuggling Asa and Nathan Pacheco with his arm around me.
(oh, and I totally rode the elevator with Nathan the night before. It was right after my baby-in-the-bar stint. So, yes, I still had on my red heels! When I stepped up to get the photo with them, he totally recognized me. Eek.)
OK. Just realized this post is getting way long and wordy. But 1 more thing:

I met Jen Lancaster. And I apparently lost my lipstick.

Is it bad that I don’t know either one of them? But they are very good looking men!
No, I didn’t know them either. That’s kinda why it was funny. You should have seen the women swooning! LOL!

Oh, I’m so glad you were following along with the #mom2summit ladies! I was there tweeting and blogging for the summit, so that was me behind the obnoxiously frequent tweets under the mom2summit username.
Hey, I was just trying to earn my keep.
We saw the Yanni Voices today, too, but unfortunately Ender was too sick to come. What did you ladies do to him at BlissDom?! That’s alright, Nathan tried to make up for it.
Hey, and thanks for the tip on the 9w shoes. I could make that work…
LOVE how Asa has helped you get so many celeb opps lately!! Work that baby, girl
Do NOT let your husband buy those hideous shoes! You just can’t. It would be a waste of your Crocs g/c!!! However….I have had my eye on those lovely lady shoes (but in black) and so when you said they were on major sale I immediately tracked them down. But only to find that the only ones still available online are the yucky ‘pewter’ ones. Ewe. If they had them in black I would have soooo snatched them up, for they are only thirty eight bucks!!! (originally they were something like $150!!!). *sigh* The Lord must not have meant for those lovely lady shoes to adorn my feet. Alas, I must give up the dream.
