A video to distract you from the miscellany

Spider-Puppy!

Okay, now while you're distracted . . .

  • Go wish Karl a happy birthday. He's old!
  • There are only three more days left to buy raffle tickets, so if you've been waiting to the last minute, now is the time. I'll be picking three winners who will win T-shirts and a grand-prize winner who will win a round-trip plane ticket to Orlando for the Halloween party! Go to http://www.avitable.com/neverwas/ to buy your tickets, find out about sharing hotel rooms, RSVP for the party, and get all of the details.
  • The limited edition Davetoon Halloween T-shirt will only be on sale for a few weeks more before it will be removed forever! Don't lose your chance to get one today – click here now!
  • I've tallied the votes, and it looks like "chickpee" is the winner by a huge margin. Congratulations to Valerie, who wins her choice of a T-shirt from my Zazzle gallery. Email me to let me know your preference, and nice job!
  • Finally, thanks to everyone who listened last night to "Clearly, You're Retarded." We talked about how childless couples and couples encumbered with spawn have different perspectives, priorities, and focuses, and how it can be hard sometimes for them to be friends with each other. If you jog or mow the lawn or drive a lot, you should download the show or subscribe on iTunes and give it a listen. If you don't enjoy it, I'll give you your money back!

Sunday's my day of rest.

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Now that my contests are done, I'm going to save Sundays as a day of rest. Sometimes I might not post anything and sometimes I'll just post something quick.

If you haven't already gone over to Karl's and seen my guest post from yesterday, take a minute and do that. It will change your life.

If you have, watch this great video that I found on Youtube:

Got somewhere better to be?

Yes, you do.

Go see my guest post over at Karl's.

Everybody else seems to be recapping TequilaCon very well, so instead, I just put this video together to show some of the swag that we got in Philadelphia. I also included a very extra-special video clip from the night of TequilaCon where we all got to see a special part of our friend Karl.

Here's the direct link if you can't see it here. And here is the link if you want to buy a "Viva El Avitable" t-shirt:

Get this custom shirt at Zazzle

And as far as any additional recap goes, I met bloggers I've wanted to meet for a long time, spent time with others that I'd met previously, got elbowed in the balls, watched Iron Man, saw the Rocky statue, ate some delicious tater tots, gave lots of one-armed hugs, spent about $2,000, and had an amazing time. I'll be there next year without a doubt!

Fuck Monday already!

Okay, two things for today.

1. I'm guest posting over at Bluepaintred's. Go check it out, although it won't be active until midnight PST.

2. Many of you don't read Karl, but you are totally missing out. Here's why.

Now fuck off, kthxbai.

Orlando survived . . . barely.

Last night, I had the pleasure of meeting Karl from Secondhand Tryptophan and Kevin from Kapgar, along with his lovely wife Katie. We met over at Downtown Disney and headed over to the Raglan Road Irish Pub for a great dinner. Britt was going to join us, but she pulled a groin muscle after her little cheerleading stunt yesterday and needed to plunk her crotch in a bowl of ice. Or maybe her babysitter canceled on her. Either way, it was just the four of us, and we had a great time!

Karl started off the evening by hitting on every waitress (and a few waiters) that walked by. He got 14 different phone numbers! Of course, they all started with "555". Katie smacked me with a wooden spoon that she carried around in her purse and berated me for scarring her husband for life with my Letter to My Body post. Kevin just curled up at the table and rocked back and forth, saying "No cheeseburger no cheeseburger no cheeseburger".

The Guinness flowed like sludge and it wasn't too long before Katie was up on the table, dancing an Irish jig. Kevin joined the little Irish band on stage by playing the jug and singing with an impressive brogue, and Karl convinced one of the waitresses to give him her panties.

I, of course, remained my normal reserved self and quietly ate my steak while everyone else went crazy. By the end of the night, though, we all had new matching tattoos on our butts that spelled out "They're always after me Lucky Charms" when the four of us stood naked cheek to cheek. We also admired Katie's huge tattoo of a devil on a motorcycle punching a nun in the face. You never would have guessed – she seemed so sweet!

After a good meal, lots of liquor, great music, and an excellent time, Kevin and Katie went back to their hotel room for a game of naked Monopoly, Karl left with four Asian women who kept running their fingers through his hair and calling him "Karrrrr", and I picked up a hooker in downtown Orlando that I could smack around for a bit.

All in all, a fun night out. Thanks guys!
