Suburban Oblivion

Usually it’s life as normal here in Suburban Oblivion. My days are filled with kids, their school stuff, PTA, the blogging, and the general domesticity that makes a rare Moms Night Out feel like a wild and crazy escape.

 Every once in awhile something happens to shake things up, and this was one of those weeks. It would seem that thanks to FuelMyBlog.com, yours truly will be attending SOBcon 2008  May 2-4^th in Chicago. This is a blogging conference held by the incredibly charming Liz Strauss, the creator of the SOB (Successful Outstanding Blogger) award. I was fortunate enough to ‘meet’ her during a FuelTV chat a few weeks back, and she is one of those people who are so incredibly people-smart you want to sit down and pick her brain for hours. Anyone looking to build relationships with their readers and potential readers would benefit, and so I have to say I hope I will be seeing at least a few of you there.

 Check out the SOBcon site for more info, and be sure to watch the video here for Liz’s thoughts on this years’ conference.

All new readers are welcome, and I hope you will consider subscribing to my RSS feed. Feeling sociable? Join me on Twitter, I'd love to hear from you!

Sheeeeee’s baaaaack!!

Last year one of my very favorite bloggers pulled a disappearing act with no forwarding address. Looks like she missed us way too much to stay gone, because I saw this morning she’s back up and running! Head on over to One Tough Momma and give Robyn a great big welcome-back. This is one blogger who has been sorely missed!

Best. Comment. EVAH.

Those shoes make me want to go to a gay club and dance with drag queens. (I totally mean that as a compliment)

You looked great!
