SPX 2009 and the Sixth-Grade Sugar Babies to Follow

Oct 01, 2009 14:53

The internet is a broken record and right now that record is that hit single "SPX WAS THE BEST EVER!" performed by like 2,000 completely amazing people. Marianne and I helped design the cover art, which is a good chunk of that crowd who bought ridiculous beards from us. Men, women, small babies alike. Actually no, not true. Babies didn't get beards ( Read more... )

Colin!

We barely saw you, what. the. hell?

I guess it's ok because we hung out with you 24/3 last year but still.

We have to hang out next year if only so I can administer the antidote!

Hearts!

Mister Cole-Ass

I know!!! I was so sad. We would have hung out on Saturday night and I figured I would wind up partying with you guys post Karaoke, but instead the stupid place was closed I accidentally got rid of a lot of people's free drink tickets and missed where everyone was going for the hotel party. I was literally the last person to leave the place where the flowing chocolate once stood.

I also had a lot of trouble sleeping this year. I'm sure it's because I still never got a GOODNITE COLLEEN from last year. Most nites I cry just thinking about it.

Dude I mean it about the book. Seriously. It's so good.

Next year! We are so going to hang out and I won't die from the poison. Phew can't wait for that antidote. My arm just fell off. You can attach it again next year right?

Oh man. Our teacher in sixth grade would read to us from that book throughout the fall of that year as some kind of "let's not do science and instead bond" experience. It's the one where the main character calls the guy "Thunk" because he's a terrific hunk, right? Whoo.

Also: nice report!

I am pretty certain that I will have a table, or at least half of one next year!

Also, I'm just saying this, but I've *never* lost a thumb-wrestling match that I can remember. In case someone is "I will give you all my money and a free table at SPX for the rest of your life if you can find someone to beat me at thumb-wrestling!"
You know who to call.
(hint: it's me)

It was, as always, so awesome to see you - I'm glad I got to be part of the lumberjack book!

It totally IS literary gold! You should have seen me reading it on the train! All of the serious riders were totally jealous.

OH lady! You're one of my favorite finds of 2009! I've totally been wearing that beard around town (partially for warmth). Thank you, thank you, thank you! Can't wait, I must buy more copies of the Lumberjack book.
