My #BlogHer11 Oath - You Should Totally Take it Too

8:07 AM


Since I leave for my first trip to BlogHer in 349,798 seconds, I thought it would only be appropriate to take my official oath (<-Sounds much more serious than pledge doesn't it?) I strongly suggest that you all take it with me. It is totally a suggestion, no BlogHer cops are going to come after you with their tweets a blazin' if you don't or anything, or maybe they will. Who knows? Without further ado, I present to you my BlogHer 2011 oath!

I Kathleen Bunn (<-you can insert your name here) do solemnly swear not to be jealous of others' swag.
I will not squish babies who are on their mamas' backs or bellies into the wall to get a coffee cup.
I will not blackmail PR agents for a pair of shoes, no matter how comfy they may be.
I will not drink more than I ever have before and streak through the halls blinding all in sight.
I will not gossip, brag or otherwise make other bloggers feel crummy.
I will not whine or complain and will instead escape to the bathroom for a timeout if needed.
I will enjoy my mommy time alone and not check on my kids a million times a day.
I will try my best to be friendly to all I meet and not come across as a snobby hermit.
I will throw caution to the wind and dance in public, wear a dress and do other things I never get to.
I will hobknob with some of my favorite brands and will force them to telepathically remember me!
I will laugh, love and learn as much as possible at BlogHer and bring home some amazing memories.
This is my BlogHer 2011 oath and I swear by my BlogHer badge and drink tickets that I will do my best to uphold it.

    I sure hope that mot people abide by these rules, they sound like pretty decent life-choices all around that we should already be trained to live by.
