If you've ever wanted to see me in action, now's your chance.

I have just returned from a long weekend in Charleston (which, for the record, is the reason for my lack of posting as of late.) I totally meant to throw up some sort of Gone-fishin’ entry indicating that I’d be away – really, I did! -- but such things require foresight, and when I am traveling, my modus operandi is not so much “foresightful planning” as it is “I am late to the airport because I accidentally sat on a strawberry”.

So, yeah, that happened. And of course I’ll be providing a recap of my trip sometime this week, which will include many pictures of houses, dire warnings about South Carolina Biting Bugs, and a brief debate about whether or not it is racist to name a black dog “Uncle Remus”. (Yes, really.)

So, that's that.
And now, this!

Are you bored? Listless? Driven mad by your lack of Saturday-night plans? ME TOO! But not this weekend, because I’ll be attending a city bloggers meetup with a number of very lovely people who I have never met. (How do I know they’re lovely, you ask? Actually, I don’t. I just love a good mystery!)

All of these bloggers are coming…

…and if you are a Blogger From New York (or, alternately, a Blogger Who Just Happens To Be In New York This Weekend), you are invited to join us. Please see below for FAQs about what is sure to be the funnest thing that anyone has ever done, ever.

Where and when is this fantastic event taking place?!
We’ll be at the Village Pourhouse starting at 9:30pm. Follow that link to find out where it is.

What should I wear?
Underwear, for sure. And... a hat. Yeah, a hat.

Can I have a beer with you?
Yes! But I’m not stopping at one, so you’d best keep up, grasshopper.

I don’t have a blog, but now that I know where you’re going to be on Saturday night, I’m going to come stalk you.
That, sir, is highly inadvisable.

Oh yeah?
Yeah, motherfucker. And if you try it, I will EAT YOUR FACE.

*******

Well, I think that about covers it! And I hope to see some of you darling blog-friends this weekend.
