My photo journey through the CBC

So today I attended the first-ever, first-annual, CBC (Casual Blogger Conference) . . .

(I don't know why they call it a casual blogger conference because think about it, casual bloggers don't pay good money to go to conferences. Only serious bloggers pay good money to go to conferences.)

(Am I right, or am I right?)

So today I attended the SBC (Serious Blogger Conference) . . .

It's easy to tell who is serious about blogging and who isn't. Take me for instance.

I'm serious about blogging. And so are my new summer toes.

Motherboard, from Crazyland, is also serious about blogging.


But then there are the casual bloggers. Like Shelle from Blokthoughts.


And T, as in Tonya, from You Asked For It.

Not only are these T's feet, but this is T's Cozy.

And this is T trying to get Kristina P to ditch her Snuggi and convert to the Cozy. (We all know that's never going to happen.)

(Do you think T and Kristina P will be mad at me for posting this photo?)

This is T's raffle ticket obsession.

And this is me plus T if you look down.

And this is me plus T if you look up.

But enough about T!

Let's talk about Shelle. I totally caught her Twitterpating during class.

And on top of that, I caught her being bee-U-tiful, which is why I was forced to spitefully sepia our shot together.

Because frankly, who wants to stand next to someone who looks like this?

Not I!


I finally got to meet THEE Motherboard. Look how cute she is. And this guy coming between us is Braden Bell's little lawyer brother.

Do you think Motherboard and LeeLou would get mad if I told you that they both have cutie patootie booties?

You heard it here first, peeps!

The best part about the conference, besides all the important training on how to become rich and Pop-U-lar, is seeing old (as in, don't I already know you?) famous-author blog friends like Annette Lyon, (who looked super cute, btw) and meeting new, not-famous-author blog friends, like Jo from Tangled Me and Amber from Amberlicious.

My girlfriend, DeNae was in the house! Woot woot! (Isn't she looking all adorable.) And I got to meet the cutest cutest cutest girl (who told me I have Charlie's Angels hair) named Serene from Serene is my name, not my life. She's right, her name should not be Serene, her name should be Vibrant.

And lookie who I got to meet and hug for an hour! Tauna from Garden of Egan. She is SO. DANG. CUTE.

I also got to meet Momza, which was a complete pleasure, even though she accused me of warping her kids just because they sing that Eyeballs Stuck on Your Plate song in the car.

Here she is with one of my favorite pondering peeps, Kazzy, who's name should be Serene.


Remember that sparkly ring I told you about the first time I met her? See! I told you so!!!!


T has a sparkly ring too!

I brought the Magic Quilt along for good luck.

(Is it just me or does Amberlicious look a little disgusted by all the magic?)

Tauna donated a whole recyclable bag full of fabric for the next quilt!!!!! Much mahalo, Tauna!

She also brought me this pretty box, which I literally squealed when I opened.

Like I said before, MUCH MAHALO, Tauna!
