I honestly feel changed, like there's a peace in me that I haven't experienced since having a group of girlfriends in college.<BR/><BR/>It was so awesome meeting you. I look forward to reading the Toronto blogger interviews (once I get caught up on all this craziness back-blogging and commenting).

So, like, one day if I ever go to grad school I will come back to your blog and peruse the archives for possible thesis topics.<BR/><BR/>Great post. This morning I was thinking something along these lines when my kids were whining and crying and I was trying to get both of them dressed and out of the house and we were late for playgroup. I wondered if I could return to BlogHer, but I knew I couldn't. For one thing, it was over. For another, it was these kids who became my muses with their births. <BR/><BR/>It was amazing to talk to you and to other women about being a mother (and a blogger and a writer and a shoe slut and oh, a person with an identity even when her kids aren't with her) without our kids taking up all of our attention. Seriously, what a treat.Mary Tsaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05224219568127146052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-1154411605139720282006-08-01T01:53:00.001-04:002006-08-01T01:53:00.001-04:00My husband just walked by my computer and asked, "...My husband just walked by my computer and asked, "Umm...
