Too Tired
I should have podcasted my conversation with Logan, because now it's late and I have to jump back into my life tomorrow at full speed. Meeting my pals was so nice, even better than expected. Talking about certain issues was very emotional for me, I'll tell you more but it needs to be said: I seem to use tears to manipulate those around me. What an ass I am.
Before I go to sleep, on my way to California (in first class, where I sat on the flight attendants lap....just because I wanted to see if she'd do it) something horrifying happened. I sat next to a man who was traveling with his wife and daughter across the aisle from us. I was clearing out files and trashing old things when in my Suburbanbliss Design folder I saw something titled porn.jpg. I realize this was a little stupid on my part, but I wondered....did I create a new banner making fun of porn and I don't remember it? So I double clicked.
Right about that time my seat mate became intrigued with the laptop and wanted to see how it worked...and right as he began looking, there it was: A picture of women giving and receiving cunnilingus. It was a black and white shot and actually tasteful for porn. Thank God.....however.
I SHOWED A MAN A PICTURE OF WOMEN HAVING ORAL SEX WHILE ON A FIRST CLASS FLIGHT ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
Logan often changes my desktop from the very subdued pattern I have it set on to a "classy" porn shot just to annoy me. Why he stored the picture in my design folder is beyond me but holy fucking shit. I still can't believe I did that. I also can't believe how far my bloody mary went when I sprayed it all over. Jesus.
I promise more tomorrow. 8 hours of travel starting at 7am when I left Alice with really crazy hair standing straight up, has worn me out.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you for letting this happen to me. Here are my flickr shots to hold you over. I also favorited a bunch of others I found.




WELCOME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, at least someone got to see some girl-on-girl blogher action, even if it was only on the laptop of a blogher.
Glad you had a good time. I was envious all weekend of everyone!

So you sat on the flight attendan't lap and had beaver shots on your computer. I think if the flight attendant was female, you probably gave the guy a bunch of material for fantasies! Glad you had a great time.

"What an ass I am." But isn't that an improvement from "What an ass I *have*"?

Thank you for indulging all of us who had to miss it! Any shots of you or do I have to go over to Alice & Jen's to see those?
Welcome home!

Great photos, okay I recognize Dooce, Alice, You, Mrs. Kennedy- who is the woman with the short blond hair- they one with the long red hair and the woman in the pink and white floral sweater?
I really love the photos in your favorites by the way. I would love to hear the stories behind some of them sometime.

Oh gosh (shit) i hope you don't mind my dropping in here. I loved participating in BlogHer from afar, but what I really wanted to know was the conversations that happened in the hallways and in the hotel rooms and what you bought when you went grocery shopping!

Welcome back! The next time I fly, I want to sit with you. I'm always terrified of being a bother to the flight attendents. You? You sit on their laps, and show off porn. I'm betting the people sitting around you had some good stories to tell when they got off the plane!

I am not drinking but in my heart I just spewed my drink all over the keyboard.

Damn, you bitches is fiiiiiine.

i think i can safely say that melissa and i shared what may have been THE MOST AWKWARD HUG IN THE HISTORY OF HUMANKIND.
if only someone had been there to film it. someone not laughing hysterically and rolling on the ground, that is (makes filming difficult).

Whenever I fly all I get is a bag of stale peanuts and a seat next to Sweaty Guy. Maybe it's time to upgrade to 1st class.

When my perents were visiting before Jack was born my mom decided to check her e-mail on my laptop.
I'm still not sure if it was a cached video she opened somehow, or the only time a porn pop-up ever appeared, but she freaked out and I freaked out and it was bad. Bad I say.
I made damn sure to clean out my computer after that. I think showing a stranger porn would be preferable to my very Baptist mother.

I so wanna sit you next time I fly.

Plane ticket to conference in California: $600
Lodging and transportation: $400
Showing porn to complete strangers on a flight: Priceless!
