Hi! I'm Lindsay Ferrier. You might remember me from a blog called Suburban Turmoil. Well, a lot has changed since I started that blog in 2005. My kids grew up, I got a divorce, and I finally left the suburbs for the heart of Nashville, where I feel like I truly belong. I have no idea what the future will hold and you know what? I'm okay with that. Thrilled, actually. It was time for something totally different.

>I’m going to talk more about Mom 2.0 in my newspaper column this week- The conference, which was a sort of collaboration between mom bloggers and marketers, was interesting, to say the least. Mom blogging is evolving at lightning speed and I’m having a hard time keeping up.
Today, though, first things first.
See what I mean? Only cheeseburgers can do this to a woman. This is a dance I like to call The Greeblemonkey.
Yvonne, Isabel and I couldn’t hand these babies out fast enough. Within minutes, everyone had either a bag or a crown on his or her head. People were wolfing down cheeseburgers, drinking the alkie hawl, and dancing like crazy fools on the dance floor. But don’t take my word for it. Check out the madness for yourself.

Photo credit: Mom2SummitEven Sony recording artist and crooner to the mombloggers, Chris Mann, got in on the cheeseburger action. But I knew things were really rolling when I noticed that the formerly sour-faced bartenders were all smiling and rocking the bag hats. Now that, my friends, is a PAR-TAY.
Based on the evidence, I’d say our third Cheeseburgher Party was a success!
And with that said, I ask you now…. Would you like to see more, bigger Cheeseburgher action at BlogHer? And would you, like me, appreciate a visit at that party from the Burger King himself? Because if enough of you ask here, maybe, just maybe he will grace us with his royal presence….

>I’m not even a blogger but the thought of the PICTURES and STORIES after Blog Her leave me BEGGING for THE Burger King to make an appearance!! In fact, I think I suddenly want a BK cheeseburger right now!!Tricia
>Yes, send the King to CheeseburgHER at BlogHer! If we can’t get Jason Kidd, we need the real Burger King! Think of all the photo ops!Jodi
>What a coup that would be. Although he really does freak me the fuck out.
>Bring the King! Bring the King! Bring the King! Hey, did you know he even has his own cologne now? Here: http://www.bettyconfidential.com/ar/h/a/a03394.htmlMaybe blogher could do a giveaway and include sample cologne from BK!The pics are great!
>I’m a McDonald’s fan, but if the KING came to BlogHer, I might switch my loyalty.
>Oh, we DEFINITELY need the King. I’m not sure you really even need to ask us that.
>OMG that would be AWESOME. They could turn us Blogher bloggers into a commercial!
>it’s GOTTA happen
>Oh, he’ll be there… if he knows what’s good for him. Has he ever *seen* hundreds of BlogHers hopped up on fries, cheeseburgers and cocktails? On second thought… maybe we should keep him in the dark about what really goes on. You know, just long enough to trick him into coming.
>The King is so enigmatic. He must grace Blogher with his presence!Serious question… Is BlogHer for any blogger? Or just mega bloggers? I’m not a mega blogger, obviously. I have ideas of what I would like my blog to become, but for right now I keep blogging along.Lindsey, I’d be interested to know what you got out of BlogHer?
>That pic of Aimee is fabulous.I wonder if Catherine ate the rest of the cheeseburgers that were left in our fridge, or if the housekeeping staff had their own CheeseBurgHer party.
>Good morning, I am not a Mom blogger, just one of your readers. I have to admit though (if I get a vote), that the King kinda creeps me out. I am not sure why. I think it is because deep down I think he’s a serial killer…always peeking in windows and showing up in strange places. And his robe reminds me of a trench coat. Just my opinion, but if he really is Satan in disguise…I worry about your safety. Peace,Phil
>Amen, sister! There truly is no such thing as too much cheese. HOWEVER, The Burger King freaks me out (I change the channel when his commercials come on), so I can’t get beind a push for his appearance.
>can you believe my fiance doesn’t like cheese? sigh!
>The Burger King is Teh Creepy.
>There’s nothing like cheeseburgers and alkie hawl.
>Okay, you know, some of you aren’t really helping me convince Burger King here… Do you want the King OR NOT?!!THINK OF THE PICTURES, PEOPLE.
>LOL…you are proving a boon to the fast food cheeseburger industry, and a nightmare to the dietary nannyists ;)Personally, I love to savor the pure, artery-hardening joy of each bite of a good cheeseburger ;)You go, gals!!!
>Awesome pics and what a great idea Lindsay! I want to meet the King! YES, get him there. And do I smell a mommy bloggers meet THE Burger King commercial coming in the near future? Hell yea!
>Yes! Bring on the King.- Ellyn
>Looking at this, I’m not sure GoonsquadSarah and I should dance in public. Or maybe we should dance, but not drink? Or drink and not dance? Decisions, decisions…We’ve got until July to figure it all out.
>I never thought I’d see porn on your sight, but that photo of the guy with the cheeseburgers is about as close to momporn as I could imagine. Ok, if he were vaccuuming, then well…What was I saying? I drifted off.I won’t be at BlogHer, but I expect plenty of picture of the King. Bring it.
>I, too, am creeped out by the Burger King. However, since I suspect there might be a little alcohol imbibed prior to meeting the King at BlogHer09, it probably wouldn’t be too nightmare-inducing, so sure – Bring the King!
