I have arrived in San Diego.
I have been greeted by sunshine and palm trees.
I have been greeted by friends.
Elena and I spent the afternoon wandering around. We took the ferry to Coronado and had ice cream, and it felt like we were in a little seaside town somewhere very far away.
I am far away.
Far away from my boys and my family and my friends – the ones who know me in the flesh rather than the written word.
But I’m also closer to something I didn’t know existed – in the world or in me.
For five days I’m where I think I need to be.
Let BlogHer ’11 begin.
