Are You Experienced?
Friday, January 18, 2008 Unless you are a parent blogger, please step away from the computer. There is nothing to see here. No funny stories about me getting duped by Fury. No cute anecdotes, no tips, no nothing. In fact, if you click below, you will realize what a "special" group of individuals we mom and dad bloggers are. And I mean special in the most euphemistic way...
If you do happen to be a parent blogger, then I cordially invite you to join me. It's BYOB, but there are no sobriety checkpoints on the info superhighway. Also, no walk of shame involved.

I'm not even embarrassed about showing up to the party first, I don't even care dammit. Screw being fashionably late, I gotta pour cherios at 7 am. I'm here to partay like a rockstar, let's get it started
Chilly Chill
-----
[BuzzeeDad] I can always count on you to get this party started.
Do I even need to ask? Seriously? REALLY? Oh, Fuc....*blub*
Sorry, I puked a little bit on your shoe.
Anyone for another SHOT?
-----
[BuzzeeDad] I've laid the tarps down for tonight. No worries.
I still need a clever handle! Stumped I am.
-----
[BuzzeeDad] "Pete" did good! Thanks for the post on your site too!
I'm still under the weather a bit..but will do my best to bring my A game!!!
-----
[BusyDad] See folks? That's what I call a dedicated hopper.
"Pete" reporting for duty. PG told me to come here. I am just doing what I am told!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] The drunkest blackbird I have ever met. But you're a good wingman.
I'll take a double shot of Crown.....
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Welcome to the party. I'll give you 2 doubles to save you a trip back to the bar.
Wassup? Sign me up please. And you can call me Receder Guy.
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Welcome! I call shotgun!
I, too, still need a special handle. I plan on partying tonight (saturday) anyone in?
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Oh I'll be stumblin round ur blawgs. Count on it.I'll update your handle once you think of one.
Love it!! I'm so in!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Woohoo! You're "rachel" for now. When your alter ego shows up, let me know and I'll add her name.
OHmommy here. Read for that shot.
:)
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Bartender! A shot of Patron for my new friend here.
Yer so clever!! Count me in. Now...what will it be...beer or vodka? Hmmmmmm...
-KC
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Beer then liquor never sicker, liquor then beer never fear. I want you in for the long haul. Grey Goose?
And just when I thought my weekend was spoiled due to a sick kid! * Hiccup * I miss going out on weekends to places other than Chili's, Buffalo Wild Wings and the local Mexican joint only to be home by 8:30. *Hiccup* Death to 14 year old Babysitters at $10 tax-free an hour *hic*
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Say goodbye to the 8:30 blues! Although I do have to say Buffalo Wild Wings rocks. Let's get 50 wings for post hopping?
Tonight. I think tonight is the night for me!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Let's tear it up!
I have begun my weekend excursions! Hopefully I will have two more website of mine to add to the list by next weekend! Oh yeah, you have officially been blogrolled on The Wise Mommy! :)
-----
[BuzzeeDad] ;) right on! Thanks! I will buzz you later for sure. Got you on my next update!

-----
[BuzzeeDad] "Immoral" and "Bloghopping" -- this is gonna be fun!
Okay.. I am so in.. I will think of a clever name.. I can also use my previous life as a bartender to mix up some drinks!!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] OH! We SO need you on board Kim. Yes!
Man, you west coasters have got it going on. I was about down for the count when you all really got going. I'm in the Easter Standard Tribe (hat tip to Cory Doctorow)
* moderation. gotta remember, moderation *
-----
[BuzzeeDad] You can lead the early charge, Chas. I'll bring up the PST. And moderation? Who needs moderation? Unlike real life, we've all got Edit Buttons ;)
Ok. I'm in. Am a little too brain fried at the moment to come up with a clever alter ego... we stayed in last night but had people here pretty late. I'm assuming that there will be a Saturday night blog hopping event??
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Sloshed parents will be out in force tonight, oh yes. I'll add you on and update your name when the muse strikes you.
Thank you and thank you again. Me love a good party, and haven't really been to one in about, ah, 8 years (guess how old the son is?). And you can bet I'll be drinking something rather alcoholic at this party. Different time zone too, but why don't we make them all nighters?
Sign me up BuzzeeDad, what a great idea! My stats:

-----
[BuzzeeDad] Funny how you can carbon date our social lives by the age of our kids isn't it? No, what's the word I'm looking for? um.. SAD. Hopefully this fills a bit of the void. Glad you could make it to the partay.
Count me in!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Cheers! See you after the kids go to bed.
I'm in! Sounds fun!

[BuzzeeDad] Well, then you got it. Done! I'm so easy.
Hey all; sorry for being late to the party. But now I have both red wine AND a pineapple cooler to keep me warm on this cold, cold night. I'd like nothing more than to start mingling, so off I go.
If anyone wants to pull me aside for a conversation, stop on by my corner of the room at:
I'd Rather Be Blogging
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Oh you're not late. The west coast contingent is just getting started! Welcome.
I'm running to WalMart really quickly to get some groceries, and I'll pick up some chick beer, and I'll be a hopping with you!

-----
[BuzzeeDad] We'll be waiting. Pick me up a JD please.
I'm here I'm here! Man I wish I would've remembered to have gone out to get some drinks. Drats! I'm craving Mimosas for some really strange reason? This was a great idea! :)
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Oh, we'll be doing this for a long time. There's always next week. For now, just open anything you can get your hands on.
I would like to be added to the blog hopping
-----
[BuzzeeDad] What a coincidence. I'd like to add you. Done.
Wassuup! Bring on the drinkin games!

-----
[BuzzeeDad] You probably meant to comment on the post with the blank agenda right? But it's ok! It's Blog Hoppin night, and shooting off-target is the name of the game Loretta!
Hi! My name is Peggy and I'm a weekend Blog Hopper..I don't know when it happened,I thought I was doing so well visiting each of my blog peeps everyday Then I realized my weekends were becoming consumed by my cyber friends. Please don't help me,I love it here,and pass me a cold one dudes (dudettes)!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Peggy, you're in a room full of enablers now. Welcome!
What a GREAT idea! Please sign me up, too. I heard about this via Cable Girl, and I will definitely have to check your blog out, too.
-----
[BuzzeeDad] You know Cablegirl? The VIP line is this way...
Ooh sorry I am late! I wanna join next weekend!! Let's see, my name can be..Momminitoops! Great Idea Buzzee!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] I'm gonna put you in charge of snacks. Your mission? Get them at CVS and spend no more than $2.76.
Hey Buzzee Dad... I'm showing up way late to the party but you know what they say about the hair of the dog. It's 5:00 somewhere. It's also 10 degrees here today. I'm thinking hot toddies to start..
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Well I can't argue with ironclad logic like that! Welcome to the Blog Hoppers!
Since Monday is holiday can we do this again tonight? I passed out way too early last night! I am such a light-weight!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] I like the "Any Time is a Good Time for IHOP" slogan, so I'm just gonna tweak it a little for our purposes here: "ANY TIME IS A GOOD TIME FOR BLOGHOP" - I'm sure others will be out playing tonight with you. I gotta work Monday, but a couple hops won't kill me right?
Sounds good. Let's party! Just a reminder, I'm a total lightweight. One drink and I tell ya all my secrets!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] Well that alone is reason enough for you to join us!
Just wanted to thank you for the awesome party that lasted into the wee hours of today...
I have NEVER had 30+ comments to a post before. I am floored and ever so thankful for this great idea. I have so many new blogs to visit now.
Hope you recovered nicely from the shindig... can't wait for next weekend!
-----
[BuzzeeDad] WOW, that's great to hear. I never expected this to be so well received. I'm really happy it's been so fun for everyone involved. I always loved a big party.
Having A Blast!!!
Blog Hopping...It is what the cool kids do...
-----
[BuzzeeDad] ... or what parents of the cool kids do, at least ;) Glad you're having fun!!
Ok. So I'm late. *sigh* But as an active sports mama, I'm ALWAYS batting clean up.... :)
But.. can I still reserve a spot at next weekend's party? :)
-----
[BuzzeeDad] You've made the team!
OMG! So sorry I didn't comment before..lol! I was there, just didn't grab this fabulous cocktail for my page ;) I'll have to figure out how to get it on my sidebar soon!
-----

-----
