Sk*rt is over. Yesterday. Old News. No, we’re not shutting it down, even though that’s what some people might like. Just the opposite. We’re aiming for bigger and better, starting fresh, onward and upward. A fabulous new name. With less hyphen!

Lucky me — I’m heading to Chicago on Thursday. All by myself. Once there, I get to hang out with about a million beautiful ladies who are all savvy, clever, creative and nice. Aren’t you jealous? I know you are — heck, I’m jealous. It’s BlogHer time and I’m excited. Plus, the whole shebang is going to be kicked off with an officially unofficial party at the rooftop bar at the W hotel. And sk*rt is sponsoring awesome door prizes and amazing giveaways. You can read all about it at the sk*rt blog. Then, after we get back, sk*rt becomes…
