Christmas in September
I am going to try not to have an aneurysm and/or vomit glitter right now. If you have been around since I began this blog (a little over six months ago *distant cheering*) you may remember a little something about me. I am heinously obsessed with theChive.com and their sister site theBerry.com. Over the past year I have watched like a caged kitten two feet away from his pals playing with a laser light and waiting ever so impatiently for theChive to have a meet-up that is close enough to Louisiana for me to attend. Well, they did even better than close to Louisiana. The meet-up is in Louisiana.
I can proudly say that today is the day. I shall finally get my wish. I am purchasing my ticket for theChive meet up in New Orleans this Friday!! You know I am truly excited when I use two exclamation points, or when I use an exclamation point period. That’s some serious punctuation that is not to be toyed with. I simply wanted to share my elation, and explain my absence this weekend. Here is what is coming up on 25ToFly:
- Remember how I promised to tell y’all a story involving a cat lady, alcohol, and a sexual fetish? Well, it’s still coming (seriously, no pun intended).
- If the article I attempted to pitch to Cracked.com bombs (at this point I am certain it already did) I am going to finish it and post it here. Yay for rejection and submitting you to my failed writing attempts.
- Something about the shit that goes down at my nail salon. Sounds intense, right?
Some other things are in the works, but I’ll leave you with those three for now. You may also remember a while back I mentioned I was starting a second blog. Well, I did. I launched it last week, but I decided that it shall remain anonymous due to the content containing mainly personally incriminating information.
Oh, and if I do not return on Monday, it is likely I have run off to stalk the editors at theChive. In this case, please alert the appropriate people, like no one.
Here is a grumpy cat too. Are you entertained yet?

Exciting stuff coming! I’ll keep reading 🙂
I sure hope so :).
I know what The Chive is, but I have no idea what you mean by “meet-up”. With who? For what? What do you have to do at said meet-up?
ditto above questions 🙂
🙂 I will report back after for a more accurate play-by-play of this event.
The meet-up is for all the fans of theChive (“chivers and chivettes”). The editors of the site will be there too, so that is super badass. What do we do at the meet up? Drink.
Okay, that sounds good to me. Take sneaky pictures, and then report back to us.
10-4!
i think it’s when a bunch of people get together, hang out, hi – how you doin’? kinda like thing like that.
Have fun! And be careful, okay?
Yes dad 😉
Dad? Yes, I’m 42, but I’m 24 on the inside…In the cockles of my heart, that is! Or at the very least, somewhere in the cockle region; maybe in the liver or spleen, I just don’t know…
Lol @ cockles.
The anticipation is killing me already. You can’t tease us like this and then not post the cat lady story!
You should email me the link to your new blog. I promise not to reveal your secret identity. I mean, come on, I live in Canada.
You will have to wait on the cat lady story but I’m sure we can work something out about the other blog 😉
Send me your e-mail!
kaysfairytale@gmail.com 🙂
Can’t wait to see number one 🙂
Soon Mike, soon.
Great
Have fun, Becca and look forward to hearing more about your New Orleans escapades. Safe travels. :).
Thanks so much Brigiiitte ;).
Becca,
Congrats. Have fun. And I’m looking forward to your post on the sexual fetish, as long as it doesn’t involved words like Paul Ryan.

Becca,
I’ll sleep better tonight, even if I look at myself in the mirror.

Becca,
I don’t want to link towards my blog randomly, but I do have my own piece on a fetish. May I share it with you?
Le Clown
I’d be upset if you didn’t 🙂
Becca,
Here: http://clownonfire.wordpress.com/2012/07/30/smoking/
It was a very popular post, which created a fair amount of conversation. Enjoy.

I will check it out as soon as I can. Squaring away my NOLA reservations. Woop!
