idea 2 - moo moo

i think we are all well aware of my obsession deep and abiding love for those whimsical little moo cards that you can make of your own fabulous pictures and use as a sort of alternative, way creative business card, but which you can also include in your decor and your paintings.

i think that we should order blog camp moo cards from the photos we take during the weekend.  and then to prolong the fun of blog camp beyond actual blog camp, we should have some kind of fun contest-type activities where people can win a little selection of the blog camp moo cards.

this week's visits

according to the site meter report (not sure why it comes on thursdays when all my others come on saturdays), our little blog camp blog has had 174 visitors in the past week. this week (my own blog aside), the visitors are coming predominantly from cuttings on a blog (for the second week in a row!) and from the (mis)adventures of veg. go B & VEG! you guys rock! but the last few visitors have come our way from rxbambi's keepsake award post. so go bambi!

tuesdays are our biggest visit day for blog camp (that's actually true on any blog, or at least on any of my blogs. tuesdays are are definitely blog catch-up day out there in the real world.)

i just thought you might like to hear read these site meter fun facts.

would you believe?

i almost forgot to order myself a blog camp t-shirt. madness. have remedied the situation now. and even got one for husband, since it's all his idea.

you too can order one if you want--go here. even if you aren't coming to blog camp--you can feel like you're there. :-) they go very well with flannel pajama bottoms and sweatpants. and the measly proceeds (seriously, zazzle takes most of it) will go to keep blog campers in wine. and you definitely wouldn't want to see us sober...

idea 1 - a blog camp guide to copenhagen

after a mad work week last week followed by a weekend of sunshine, i'm feeling rested and full of ideas. it's turned cloudy and rainy today, so i'm wrapped in a sweater with a cup of tea and ready to share at least one of those ideas...

since all of us attending the coming blog camp are a bit mad about our cameras and we intend to do a photo walk in copenhagen anyway...i was thinking that we should turn the best of all of our photos into a blurb book. inspired, as ever, by the lovely and talented tangobaby, who has made two blurb books. i have two in progress started, but sadly not finished.

i'd like to change that and i figure that if we do it together--a blog camp guide to copenhagen or some such thing, then the commitment to one another to finish it and make it available would well, sort of get rid of my procrastination.

go and check out blurb if you don't know it already. and be thinking about contents and an angle for our photos.

Style seekers or trendsetters?

According to the new issue of Easy Living magazine, Copenhagen is THE place to go for style seekers! Of course, I think of ourselves, the blog camp girls, as trendsetters. It's only right as we are setting a trend by attending the first blog camp, and event that will surely become a famous blogging festival soon!
The countdown has started and I can't wait!!!!

it was bound to happen

i accidentally posted a hermit book club post here...but have now removed it and put it where it belongs. so go here if you'd like to see my little ditty about the upcoming murakami.

all these blogs. i don't know where i'm at...she says as goes muttering off to bed...all that sunshine and white wine in the the garden is exhausting.

the countdown has started

Since we hit June the countdown to blog camp has started. It's less than three weeks now.

Looks like I'm the only one left without a talent. I haven't been discovered yet, even though Britain clearly has got talent... (bad joke, sorry Susan).

I'm going from super excited to scared on the idea of a tattoo.

I think I need to buy Union Jack PJs,

and I need to borrow a Mac because my black Dell simply won't do.

I still can't find my tiara which I stashed somewhere, can't find those damn matching diamond slippers either so don't know WHAT I'll wear for Saturday afternoon at the lake.

I don't know how to represent my country and I'll have to review my complete collection of Eurovision song contests for inspiration...

I know I'll be stressing out about the talent thing for the next nineteen days. But perhaps as a Pole with German blood mixed in I could follow Extranjera's lecture on tequilla with my own on, say, vodka. In fact, apparently I'm good at lecturing, i.e. talking about the same thing for about hour and a half. Perhaps that could be my talent. On a suggested topic.

Or perhaps I could spend that time convincing everyone that rock climbing is da best. In case there is still someone there who doesn't know that...

19 days and counting.

Thanks...
