This is the fourth post I’ve started recently, but hopefully THIS one will end up getting published. I was going to work feverishly on getting my “Dinner Party” post up, but then I remembered that I’m the guest poster at Merlot Mom’s today, so I figured I should highlight that.
I also know you’re all interested in what’s going on with my friend Hannah and baby Andrew. WELL, they’ve got an appointment today, but as of last week’s appointment, things were looking good. His amniotic fluid had increased, which means hid kidneys are functioning, which is AWESOME. But you know what? I’ll let her tell you. We’ve got her blog set up…she’s Type A Momma. Believe ME, there’s never been a more accurate blog name. :0) Go over, get yourself caught up (there are only two posts up, so it won’t take too long), and leave her some love!
In other bloggy-world news, did you hear about AllMediocHer ’08? It’s being held on Friday, October 3rd in the DC Metro area. We’re having dinner at Jaleo in Crystal City. And if you missed BlogHer, get your butt to DC! Flights are actually really reasonably priced right now, so take advantage of it! Mama Ginger Tree & Maura are flying in from California, AnyMommy will be in town from Washington, Amy in Ohio is going to travel from Iowa (Just kidding. Wanted to see if you were paying attention), I’ll be there, along with a few local girls, including, but not limited to, Liz and Kate. Jessi, Cassie, Stacey, MeL & Domestic Extraordinaire are going to try to come…and we hope you can make it too!
We’re also going to set up a New York City AllMediocHer ’08 a few days before. That will be held sometime between September 29th and October 2nd. Details TBD, but will include Z & Marinka, and hopefully feener, Stella…and who over else is in the area!
I’m going to work on getting a button made, and I’ll keep you posted with any new details! If you have questions, feel free to email me at meghan(@)amomtwoboys(.)com.
So, your homework? Get over to Merlot Mom‘s and check out my guest post, then head over to Type A Momma and show Hannah and Baby Andrew some love, and THEN get your shit together and figure out how you can make a trip to New York City or DC happen. K? I don’t really think that’s too much to ask.

Yay! Yay! Yay! I didn’t know that Jessi was nearby. That’s an awesome list. I hope everyone makes it. Just wish I could meet Z and Marinka too. Going to meet Hannah.

Great post at MM today. I didn’t know Alltop and AllMediocre were rivals. You can’t belong to both? Sounds like AllMediocre is way better if you’re organizing a get-together. What else do you guys do that we don’t do so I can get really jealous and make that switch?

Alas, AllMediocre ’08 is too far away for me to make. In fact, BlogHer was only a couple hundred miles away and that was too far for me also.
I went over and said Hi to TypeA Momma and enjoyed your guest post. Now I need to make time and go through Merlot Moms archives.
You’re one busy chick.
I see now that you care not about you local, so-called bloggy pals. I see how you roll. One call from those east coast girls and you go running.

Damn girl! Could you pick some more EXPENSIVE cities??? Are you coinciding these events with a trip back home???

Hope to see you when you’re in DC – your AllMediocre meet-up is in my neighborhood so stop by beforehand to say hi
As long as you’re following the BlogHer reach out like Penny Lane in Almost Famous, why don’t you finish up the East Coast leg with a trip to Boston as well? We’ve got quite a few Mediocre bloggers in New England who’d love to meet you.
Okay. At least me.

Yeah, I don’t really have an awesome commnet to make other than this…
WIFE: Meghan drunkenly invited us to wine taste with her Friday!
ME: Meghan? Really? I LOVE Meghan. She’s my BFF!
WIFE: Me too! She is the BEST!!!!
ME: She lives far away though.
WIFE: Yeah, and I still don’t know if we are having dinner with (no one anyone in the blog world knows) on Friday. It’s up in the air.
ME: Screw them! Do they run a website that says I am kind of crappy, ala mediocre?
WIFE: Yeah, what is with that? We are AWESOME.
ME: I know…but I would totally prefer hanging with Meghan than (people you don’t know)
WIFE: I have the answer! We kidnap Meghan and keep her in our basement. and feed her all those Nutri-system meals we have left over. That way we can hang with out friends on Friday and have Meg around for long time!
ME: I like it! Meg will be our little slave like a Tarantino film! Awesome!
Mike from the Newborn Identitys last blog post..Dads don’t parent, they babysit…
Wow, Meghan! That is SO cool that you have your first All Mediocre confab in the D.C. area! You GO, girl! I’m very impressed.
Now I’m off to do my homework.

Sigh…wish I could go. Not gonna happen. Too much traveling this summer and I had to install an air conditioner today.

I’m so excited for the DC dinner (particularly since I won’t have to travel!)
I couldn’t have picked a better spot either. We (used to – before kids) go to Jaleo in DC all the time. Haven’t been to the Crystal City one yet – but it’s all the same. It’s probably the one “given” restaurant that I recommend to people visiting DC.
But enough of my commercial for Jaleo… I really am looking forward to meeting everyone and put all listed in my reader so I’ll feel like I already know them. Bummed that I won’t be able to go up to New York though…. It’s so close and I could have stayed with friends. But two dinners out in one week – with one in another city? Don’t think my husband would love that idea. I do want to meet Marinka one day. Like everyone else – I have a huge crush on her.
Kates last blog post..Friday Confession and Guest Post
I SO want to come to this!! I want to meet everyone there…(not to mention actually meeting my BFF Jessi in person). *sigh* If it were a month later I might have been able to convince hubster to let me buy the ticket…but alas I have musical tickets to buy first. Stupid finances.
Maybe a miracle will occur between now and then *lol*
That dinner party post is kicking my ass too. OMG. I am off for all your linky love…
Jealous, jealous, jealous.
So many people I would like to meet in person…
We will have visitors from across the world then. In any case, I am saving up for a new air conditioning unit, for when (not if, when) it dies.
For next year: Texas is very cheap (hint hint hint)
