If you scroll through the #blissdom on Twitter, you will have plenty of posts about the wrap-ups of the conference, comparing it to everything from sorority rush to a giant sleepover to a sketchy scene with the tractor convention guys.

She was the whole reason I picked up a guitar again back in med school and started writing my own music for a few years. I don't exaggerate when I say I was completely geeking out.
And the best part? During solo rendition of the Wreckers' song of "Leave the Pieces When You Go" (which is meant to be a duet) she heard me singing harmony (probably a little loudly) and she complimented me.
I wuz ded.
And even better, she Tweeted:
I could have a future as a backup session singer, no? I do bar mitzvahs and birthday parties...
