DAY #1 Of Blogher 2011 Complete - It's A LONG ONE...So Hang In There!

Today was the 1st day of the 2011 Blogher Conference in San Diego!

I started out my morning with some Oxylent (my sponsor), a cup of coffee and a smile!

I was feeling rip roaring ready to GO!

I headed downstairs to find that the awesome staff of the Omni Hotel had packed BAG LUNCHES for the BLOGHER bloggers...how cute is that? LOVE IT! I got to meet two of their PR & Management ladies and my day was underway...I was headed to the Blogher Conference.

After I checked in...got my name badge and found my way through the convention center...

I loaded my breakfast plate up and got to see some friends...

This is Liz from @thisfullhouse

This is Lisa from @growingyourbaby

This is Marie from Child Play Communications

And got to hear the Announcement from the Blogher ladies, where next year's BLOGHER will be! Back in NYC is awesome for me...just a train ride away! AWESOME!

Finally, it was time to hit the exhibit hall...

There is always lots to see and take in!

Including a phone call that turned into a "personal" interview with a Lifetime Media Rep, who is interested in having me be a Product Review Blogger for their show "The Balancing Act". How cool is that? This might also require some TV time...which you know I love!!

Then I headed back to the hotel to re-charge my phone, change my clothes for the second time that day, meet an old friend for a drink...

and meet one of my sponsors (in person) who I was elated to finally meet.

After that, I got myself re-dressed for a third time, and headed to a meet up with the Skinny Scoop ladies...which was nice. We sat & chatted around a bon fire, and I fought a horrible headache...from a very long 1st day at Blogher!
