News, news, news….

400,000th

We’ll be in Chicago in a few weeks and are sort of planning a big, but not too big, last minute (head up my ass) Naked Lady Party / Clothing Swap for kids in that area. I can’t make any promises at this point, due to the limited time frame, but right now we’re trying to think of viable (and reasonable) venues for approximately 40-70 in that area so if anyone knows of one, comment s’il vous plait!

To my fellow bloggers… I am running a special on blog mastheads! Now through March 25th, I’m offering the ridiculously low price of $40 for a custom-designed header. You get to specify size, imagery and request unlimited drafts until you’re 100% stoked. Contact me at Painfully Hip Design if you’re interested.

In other news, I’m getting a puppy today! I had to leave my beautiful german shepherd, Malouk with her dad in Vancouver so there’s been a bit of a fuzzy hole in my heart ever since. So I’m off to the SPCA to save a life. Right after I go to the dreaded dentist. Wish me luck!

Thanks again for this awesome year!

Hi, I’m from Chicago as well. Please keep me in the know about this event! I have lots of clothes to get rid of. I also have a recommendation as a spot for you. Its a great spot. Could easily fit 70 in their living room and they’re great kids. i’m sure they’d give the space to you for cheap or free, they might ask for donations from people who come. Email me and I can give your info to my friend who lives there and hook it up.

hell yes! we’ll be there from March 25th to Apr 2nd, we’re thinking of doing the swap in the first 3 or 4 days we’re there. A free venue would obviously be ideal and one that at least allows alcohol would also be good, but at this late point we’re open to any ideas! we’ll rent too, but we’d have to charge a small entrance fee to make up for it. please email me if you have any clues!

Girl, we need to talk. Chicago is my home away from home. If it’s a weekend I am there!

Chicago? Why, that’s where I live! I’d love to meet up. What kind of venue are you looking for? And if you’re looking to hit up some thrift stores or need other advice and tips, I’d be glad to help you out.

Congrats on the adoption plans. That’s awesome! Pound pups are always the best.

Are you looking to rent out a place in Chicago, or would you prefer a free spot? And are you looking for a place that serves alcohol?

CONGRATS! wish i was closer to chicago

11. Angela on February 28th, 2008 at 1:46 pm
ooh! When are you going to be in Chicago? It would be fantastic if it corresponded with when I have my spring break and will be home! Clothing swap sounds fantastic!

A brownie point for gettinga dog from the SPCA instead of buying one from breeders ! Hope you post a pic of your new best friend soon !
