Well, that, and the badge that I am displaying on my sidebar… but my point is that I am speaking at Blogher!!

The panel that I am involved in has a session open to attendees to ask questions about WordPress, so I thought that I would open this up to you as well – those of you that use WordPress, or are interested in WordPress at least – ask me anything!! From how to start a blog with WordPress/WordPress.com to how to install plugins…

It was Canada Day yesterday, and while we didn’t do anything particularly exciting or patriotic, we had a pretty good day at the park. I actually felt good… for the first time in like 2 weeks!!!

We played Cricket, as it’s probably becoming Toronto’s national sport! Ok, I kid, but I cannot tell you the number of times that I’ve driven by Cricket matches in the past 2 summers! Of course, soccer is insanely popular too – I tried to get my kids into soccer and it was completely filled up! Anyway, I love to play Cricket, have I ever mentioned this? Yes, I do, and so does my mom, who is surprisingly good for a 50-year-old woman, but of course we were playing with the kid’s bat as well since we don’t actually own an adult bat, but you know, it’s all good!

If you haven’t played before, you should try, it’s fun!

Me: Yeah!

2 year old: Like “5 year old”?

Me: Yeah…

I am soo in love with this punching bag that I may marry it! I am sooo not kidding! See, for years I’ve been begging my husband to get one, seriously, but the logistics of it always overwhelmed him and so instead I often would do my “punching” moves on his arm, which really sort of annoyed him, so today when I decided to resume my kickboxing class and was introduced to my “precious”, I have to say, It.Totally.Rocked!!!
