BlogHer Head Count 2007
Alright, people! BlogHer ‘07 is a mere 61 days away and it’s time to start taking names and compiling a list so I can plan my stalking well in advance.
Sooo…if you’re going, please add your name and URL to the Mister Linky form at the bottom of the post and click ENTER.
Then, if you’re comfortable sharing such info, leave a comment with your arrival day and approximate time and the hotel, hostel or whatever in which you’re staying. If you are looking for a roommate, feel free to post that, too.
Now? Help spread the word about the list by grabbing the “I’m on the list!” button above for your sidebar and be sure to link it back to this post. Email me if you need me to send you some code –>izzymom at gmail dot com
And if anyone is interested, here is what I wrote after BlogHer 2006.
(If you’re not going, I apologize for writing something that might seem exclusive. It’s certainly not my intention. I’m now please to be begging your pardons :)
TWO MONTHS! I am already turning into a huge DORK about how excited I am. Thanks for making the button!
Cool idea Izzy. Am DYING to meet you!
Be sure to wear a big yellow hat so I know who u are! I’m bad with faces.
No hat needed — I’ll recognize you by the fanny pack.
I’ll be there; arriving Friday morning by train and going straight to BlogHer. I’m staying with my brother so no hotel fun for me. Just attending on Friday.
I’m arriving at O’Hare Thursday evening, staying at the W.
I’m arriving Thursday and staying at the W. I can’t wait to meet everyone!
I am going to email you to find out how to get that nice badge on my blog…
Arriving Thursday with a gang of TO bloggers. Can’t wait to meet you :)
Going to put up my badge now.
I’m arriving Friday mid-day and staying at the W. Hope to talk with you over a cocktail. :-)
Like the guy from Curious George? lol
Sooooo excited!
Izzy! I can’t wait to meet you!
I’m arriving Thursday and will be at the W.
Izzy! Cannot wait to see you again. I’m arriving Wednesday and I’m staying at the Chicago City Centre.
I’m going. I don’t have my very own blog (yet) but I’m at svmoms and Mayas Mom. I’ll get there late Thurs, have a room at the W and will be posting for a roomie.
“…so I can plan my stalking well in advance.”
Wow. At least you just come right out and admit it, huh?
:)
AWESOMETASTIC.
But, now you’re going to be swarmed. How’m I gonna any Izzy time for me?
I’ll wear a monkey suit and stand next to Jenn.
I’ll be there, Izzy. Make sure you wear a great bra again this year. I’m coming Thursday morning and staying at the W.
um, yeah, i kind of hate you all….since i’m not going…
:(
Alas, I will not be there. It would be a momumental undertaking to say the least!!! One year I will - and be an ‘international guest’?!
I left my name but it wouldn’t let me comment…so I’ll just tell you that I’m at the W, arriving Thurs afternoon with mom (ie The Nanny) in tow, and baby on boob.
I’ll be there… arriving Thursday noon, staying at the W, rooming with BOSSY.
Izzy is easy to pick up (oops I meant OUT) She’s tall and gorgeous.
I’ll be arriving Thursday with a large baby and staying at the W. I apologize in advance to anyone in the room next to me.
Arriving at 4:10 on Thursday, staying at the W.
I figure it’s only fair to give my stalkees a running start :)
Do you ever go to Minti? Rachel from Minti flew here from Australia (or is it New Zealand?) for BlogHer last year and I was astounded!!!! What a trooper!
Pshawwww! I think it will be the other way around. Pencil me in for a cocktail, k?
I’m looking forward to it!
I cannot wait to meet everyone. I am arriving on 7/26 at approx. 12:53 p.m. and departing on 7/30 in the a.m. I am rooming with Deb from tiredmummy.blogspot.com and we are staying at the Intercontinental Hotel
Oh yeah…room reserved, registered..just need to book flight..planning to arrive Thursday Afternoon…..OOOOOH MAN!
Ooops..at the W!
Great idea Izzy!
I’ll be getting in to O’Hare around 1pm and I’ll be staying at the W with Redneck Mommy. Yeehaw!
Can’t wait to meet you FINALLY!
Damn! I so wanted and planned to go. Now it’s just not in the cards. Sucky. Have fun!
I get into O’Hare at 1pm Wednesday the 26th.
I’m staying at the W.
I don’t leave until 7pm on Sunday the 29th.
I can’t WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am planning to arrive Thursday, leave Sunday, and stay at the W but don’t want to finalize everything until I find a roommate. Mine dropped out. Assuredly, not due to any 20 decibel snoring habits on my part. :-)
So anyone in the same boat, drop me a note!
I can’t wait to meet you all! I went last year and didn’t know anyone. I’m really looking forward to this year.
Izzy- can I hug you? I’m a hugger. Can’t wait to meet you and everyone else. Looking so forward to it.
I had every intention of going this year, but then my friend decided to throw a big 40th birthday bash for herself the same weekend. If I miss it, she will kill me! *LOL*
I will miss you all, though. looking forward to hearing all about the fun you all will have.
Yey! I’m so excited! Can’t wait to be there!!!!
Well aren’t I just a giant loser. Ya’ll have fun!!!
I arrive Thursday, early afternoon, staying at the W. Can’t wait to have loads of fun!!
My roomie is Lisa from Midwestern Mommy. We are staying at the W and are arriving sometime on Thursday. Looking forward to meeting everyone!
i won’t be there (dies a little inside) but i am cracking up reading your blog from last year… freaking deathride 06 is making me pee my pants. LOL.. oh man. miss you, love you- MEAN IT.
I can’t wait to meet all these great women! I’m an early arriver (Thursday afternoon!)
I’m so excited to see you all again — and meet others AND Sage and all the other new bloggettes and bloggitos. I’m at the W too - arriving Thursday afternoon.
Have fun ladies!
Be there in time for drinks on Thursday. Staying at the W…rooming with Canape.
Can’t wait to meet you.
Am aiming for a wed - sun night trip, but still need to get plane tickets. Thanks for setting this up — cool!
I live right outside Chicago, so I’ll be taking driving over to Navy Pier. With a 1-3 week old baby, depending on when she arrives…

Another Thursday arrival - doin’ the W!
My roomie is Kyla from The Journey (http://khebert.blogspot.com/)
Dude. Thursday. W. Dude.
Dana forgot to mention that I am her roommate! Plus Liz from This Full House/Dot Moms/Imperfect Parent, and a new blogger I don’t know. FOUR WOMEN! ONE BATHROOM! It’s like “Survivor” with laptops!
Arriving Thursday afternoon on the train with Gingajoy. Staying and drinking at the W. Squeeeee!
I’m arriving Thursday, staying at the W Friday night and spending the rest of the weekend with friends in Oak Park.
I’m still contemplating. . . afraid of being the wall flower in a gi I guess. ;-)
Great idea Izzy! I’m arriving Thursday around 6:30 pm and staying at the W with Liz, Dana and Elizabeth. I’m looking forward to meeting you. Should you get one of those deli number things so we can take a number?
Ah shit, I was going to wear a big yellow hat. Scratch that. I’ll be the one wearing stained, ill-fitting clothing that serious needs ironing, cuz people, I can never pull myself together.
arriving late on thurs. staying w/ lassa @ w. save a hug for me!!!
I should be there. And am rooming at the W with two very kind (yet obviously strange) women who agreed to take me in– out of pity or adventure is yet to be determined.
If you can’t find me, follow the water trail or the screeches of laughter. Was told last year I am not a “subtle laugher!” HA!

I’ll be there with my entire family in tow. Cordy will be with daddy during the day, sight-seeing in Chicago, while Mira will be in the sling with me.
We wanted to stay at the W, but it filled up before I got my reservation. So we’re staying at the other hotel. I feel like we’re going to be over there all by ourselves, since everyone else seems to be staying at the W!
This is my first year attending - by myself and without the kids! - and I am very much looking forward to meeting you and everyone on the head count…fun stuff!
Oh, and I’m also staying at the W with BlogHer roomies!
You’d best be hoping I win the package the Canadians over at HBM and TMB are handing out, I simply dazzle.
I so hope to be added to the head count
*fingers crossed*
Izzy, splendid idea, this head count.
Now then, I arrive Wednesday afternoon, depart the following Monday.
I will be staying in a suite at the Chicago City Centre with several BlogHeristas. I will be thinking of these lodgings as a dorm/hostel/60s groovy crash pad. Thus, we will have room for anyone who simply wants to lay her weary head down for any of the nights. Contact moiself at gracedb@yahoo.com if you’re interested in this modest but well meaning offer.
Don’t forget, BlogHeristas, child care is available! I’m proud to be in charge of this program again. Please partake if you will be with child/ren.
I will have spare Xanax for anyone who is bashful, will be speaking and is freaked about it (that includes me), swooning out of control because she touched La Izzy Mom, needs to chill after a barfight/swim in that big lake nearby/streaking across hotel lobby.
I’ll be there. I’m rooming with the lovely Mrs. HollowSquirrel at the W. (Thursday-Sunday)
I will be there! Looking forward to meeting you live!

Long time reader, first time attender. Looking forward to a conference where more than 10% of the attendees are women!
I’m getting there Thursday and Girl Con Queso are sharing a room at the W. Ignore me and I will talk shit about you. (Or more likely just cry in my room all night.) Can’t wait to see you!
i’ll be attending “virtually”
i’ll have a spy there with a webcam on her notebook
gathering women i want to meet, for a virtual coctail party, poor, poor sad me.
This will be my first time attending Blogher and I can’t wait! I’ve been looking at photos from other years on Flickr. Fun fun fun.

Why did I sign up to do the spreadsheet? WHY?

I’m coming too! Just won my pass from ParentBloggers this very morning! I’m arriving Thursday and staying at the W with my 6 month old roomie, Little Bear. He’ll be one of the gregarious babies with a huge smile… and voice to match, if WhyMommy dares to even look sideways at dairy. So hug me and squeeze me, but don’t feed me chocolate!
yay! yayyy!
that’s all I got right now. ice cream crash. sorry.
*sticky-mouthed face falls on laptop keyboapodfjspjkfsfdoieean;;nf*
I’m going too! Staying at The W, arriving on Wed for a day to see Chicago - much much fun planned…
I must be channeling GoonSquadSarah’s inner 12 year old boy because I am giggling about being #69. I’ll be arriving on Thursday afternoon on the same flight with PunditMom and Sarah. Staying at the W rooming with Aviva and maybe one more.
woo hoo Blogher ‘07 Chicago here I come! I’m staying at the W. I arrive the 26th and leave the 29th after the Sunday session. Get in touch - I have a roomie (fellow blogger Toledo Lefty who is one of the team of writers at http://angryfatgirlz.blogspot.com).
Get in touch if you want to do a group dinner at the W on Thursday night.

Nemo and I will be arriving early Thursday morning, and once we figure out how to get to the City Center from Chicago Union Station, we’ll be staying there, and leaving Sunday evening.
Hurray! I am psyched that BlogHer is in my hometown and to see everyone. Anyone who wants to join me for good, Chicago-style pizza should find me/email me. (Is that the new way of saying, “For a good time, call…”?)
Due to severe threats upon my person, I will be going. Hell, it’s worth it just for the laughs and pictures later. And the drinks. And the clothed swimming. And pillow fights. And the drinks. And…what am I forgetting? Oh yeah, some sort of conference thingie will be going on at the same time. ;-)
Good, I was hoping someone (that wasn’t lazy old me) would make a list like this! Thanks!
Yay! I’m excited to be going. I believe I get in late Thursday and leave Monday. I’m rooming with Super Des, Suzanne Reisman (#91) and Alex Elliot (#66).
Get in late Thursday - will be with my sister, Blondie, from http://talesfromclarkstreet.blogspot.com.

Zoot and I are sharing a room at City Centre and I’m currently wondering how I’ll manage to get there from the airport. LOL!
OTJ has my digits and I am SOOOO there.
behind the times here…I am staying at the W Lakeshore and arrive Thursday at 3.
Looking forward to finding everyone!
Can’t believe I’m actually in, thanks to the generosity of MochaMomma and CrazedMommy, the frequent flier miles from my MIL, and the “sing for your supper” opportunity to live-blog in exchange for registration fees. Can Not Wait.
