			<p>So, you may have heard about this little &#8220;awards show&#8221; that&#8217;s happening on Sunday. I&#8217;m not allowed to mention it by name for top secret legal reasons I don&#8217;t understand (see sponsored note below), but I&#8217;m pretty sure y&#8217;all know the one I mean. The one about all the TV shows, with the prizes that are shiny orbs, and most importantly, they brought one of my favorite Brits BACK to host again after <a href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BvHXzP2SpLA" target="_blank">he brutally trashed</a> nearly all of America&#8217;s Hollywood royalty last year. Which, let&#8217;s be honest, I thoroughly enjoyed every second of.</p>
<p>So this year, I plan on backing Ricky up with some cutting witticisms of my own on the tweets, with the help of my three new sassy gay roommates. WATCH OUT.</p>
<p>Why? Because Lean Pockets is hosting a Twitter party for their <strong><a href="http://bit.ly/Southified" target="_blank">Live Famously Sweepstakes</a></strong> during the show this year, which means that myself and a bunch of other lovely ladies will all be live tweeting the awards, AND giving away free swag to you all to boot. Each of us will be raffling off a <strong>Live Famously</strong> <strong>swag bag</strong> full of all sorts of lovely, shiny things (most notably a $50 spa gift card, what what!)</p>
<p>Even cooler, the #LiveFamously Twitter party is merely a taste of the actual Sweepstakes, which are being hosted by one Perez Hilton and involves a grand prize of a trip to Tinseltown to hang out with him. (NBD.)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.livitluvit.com/2012/01/lets-get-snarky-this-sunday.html/live-famously" rel="attachment wp-att-7278"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7278" title="live famously" src="http://www.livitluvit.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/live-famously-500x400.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="400" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The winner <em>and</em> a BFF will be flown to LA to, quite literally, &#8220;live like a celeb&#8221; for a day. This involves ridiculously fun things like a swanky hotel stay, car service, a $1k shopping spree, a $250 spa experience, and a special concert experience, all hosted by Perez. Imagine how much celeb dirt you&#8217;d hear? Answer: ALL OF IT.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The promotion goes until March 31, so you have plenty of time to win one of their daily prizes as well &#8211; just head over to <strong><a href="http://bit/ly/Southified" target="_blank">their Facebook page</a></strong> for all the deets.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And don&#8217;t forget to hang with <a href="http://twitter.com/rachaelgking" target="_blank">me</a> at the Twitter party (PANTS OFF DANCE OFF!!! &#8211; you know, since we&#8217;ll all be at home on our couches in our adult onesies, amiright?) starting <strong>this Sunday, 7pm ET</strong>! There will be snark and snark and FREE STUFF <em>(and more snark)</em> galore.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">~~~~~</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>FYI! This post (and my pending tweets on Sunday) are sponsored by Nestlé/Lean Pockets. Yes, they totally gave me money for this, but all opinions are very much my own, as is the sass they come with.</em></p>

			<p style="text-align: center;"><em>This post is sponsored by <a href="http://www.def-shop.com" target="_blank">Official Streetwear Shop</a></em></p>
<p>When I was in the magical land of <a href="http://www.livitluvit.com/2011/05/excuse-me-maam-but-theres-some-schmoop-on-your-shirt.html" target="_blank">Bloggers in Sin City</a> last month, our fearless leader <a href="http://nicoleisbetter.com/" target="_blank">Nicole</a> put together the most ridiculous swag bags for us all (emphasis on ridiculous, as they were full of hair tinsel, condoms, panties, and <a href="http://www.bloggersinsincity.com/" target="_blank">more</a>).</p>
<p>There were a lot of treats in that bag, but you all know I am first and foremost a sucker for anything delicious, so one of my favorites was without a doubt the custom-iced cookie from <a href="http://www.bitterbakingco.com/" target="_blank">Bitter Baking Co</a>. Now, the cookie was good &#8211; <em>real</em> good &#8211; but it&#8217;s the company I fell in love with, and here&#8217;s why:</p>

A while back, I saw <strong><a href="http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:TmlKRU2pAOYJ:www.plumdistrict.com/moms/discount/washington-dc/beauty-and-fashion-deals/closet-caucus-80-for-two-and-a-half-hours-of-wardrobe-consultation-a-200-value+http://www.plumdistrict.com/moms/discount/washington-dc/beauty-and-fashion-deals/closet-caucus-80-for-two-and-a-half-hours-of-wardrobe-consultation-a-200-value&amp;cd=1&amp;hl=en&amp;ct=clnk&amp;gl=us&amp;source=www.google.com" target="_blank">an ad</a></strong> on PlumDistrict.com for a &#8220;Wardrobe Consultation&#8221;.</p>
<p>Now, I can dress myself. Rather well, I might add. BUT.</p>
<p>I am, like most of the female population, one of those girls who never has anything to wear. I can barely get <em>into</em> my walk-in closet thanks to all the crap in there, and this is still the case. I buy pieces that I love, but have trouble turning them into outfits. It takes me twenty minutes just to pick my clothes in the morning, and I generally go through five outfits before I find something I don&#8217;t hate.</p>
<p>This should not be the case.</p>
<p>So when I saw the opportunity to have a &#8220;strategic shopping&#8221; session with Kaarin Moore of <strong><a href="http://closetcaucus.com" target="_blank">Closet Caucus</a> </strong>that promised to help me sort through my wardrobe woes, I was curious. And after I googled a bit, I decided that she sounded legit (and just lovely to boot), so why not give it a shot? </p>
<p>(<a href="http://twitter.com/closetcaucus" target="_blank">She&#8217;s also on Twitter</a>, which automatically makes me like any company about 50% more.)</p>
<p><a href="http://closetcaucus.com"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/plumdistrict.com-production/perks/1592/image/original.jpg?1298939934" alt="" width="440" height="260" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://closetcaucus.com"><img class=" aligncenter" src="http://www.closetcaucus.com/storage/Closet-Caucus-Banner-v2.png" alt="fashion, wardrobe, closet caucus, kaarin moore" width="420" height="90" /></a></p>
<p>Before our session, she asked me a zillion questions about my style, personality, and what I liked to do. (Me: &#8220;Does &#8216;mimosas&#8217; count as a hobby?&#8221;) So when we met up in Georgetown last week, she already had a solid idea of where I was coming from and what I needed to accomplish. We spent a while discussing what I had in my wardrobe already (thereby determining which staples we were on the hunt for that day), and discussing strategies for optimizing my closet as a whole, so that my pieces would all easily fit together and I&#8217;d never be left struggling with that WHAT TO WEAR?! question again.</p>
<p>Next, we hit the streets. First, I needed the perfect Little Black Dress, as I hate the 10 or so already in my closet. About five minutes later, we walked out of White House Black Market with an absolutely perfect, high quality, flattering LBD. You&#8217;ll probably see it on me at the next happy hour, so get ready, y&#8217;all.</p>
<p>After that, JEANS. We headed into Levi&#8217;s (Her: &#8220;Levi&#8217;s has been doing great things lately&#8230;&#8221; Me: &#8220;I don&#8217;t care what the label says, as long as they make my ass look good.&#8221;) and headed upstairs&#8230; to see 4,294 pairs of jeans. I trembled in fear, while Kaarin marched me to a dressing room and returned in five minutes with three pairs.</p>
<p>The first fit well, but wasn&#8217;t quite IT.</p>
<p>The second was so perfect, I didn&#8217;t even try on the third.</p>
<p>Yes, that&#8217;s right. <em>Homegirl found my Cinderella Jeans in TWO. TRIES.</em></p>
<p>We hit a few other stores where I found some perfect summer dresses for my weddings and conferences I have this summer, a couple adorable cardis, and more. The whole time I was completely comfortable &#8211; shopping with Kaarin was honestly more like shopping with a BFF who really knew her shit. (I didn&#8217;t hold back &#8211; she got the full Rachael&#8230; and she didn&#8217;t bat an eye. This chick? Is cool.)</p>
<p>The one thing I couldn&#8217;t find was the perfect black blazer. A few hours after our session, Kaarin emailed me a link to the exact kind we&#8217;d been looking for.</p>
<p>She also sent me an invite to ideeli.com, which, after looking around there, means my wallet is in a LOT of trouble. (If you want an invite, let me know in the comments. I&#8217;ll make it happen.)</p>
<p>Now, I know this whole thing sounds like she paid me tons of money to write it.</p>
<p>She didn&#8217;t. Not a cent. But after telling a few of my besties about it, they all said they&#8217;d be interested in something like this, so I wanted to share. (She&#8217;ll also come over to your house and clean out your closet for you, which will probably be my next purchase&#8230;)</p>
<p>Anyway, the only thing I&#8217;m getting out of this writeup is a 10% discount for you:</p>

			<p>There are many different types of blogs in this world. Industry blogs, dating blogs, financial blogs, news blogs, pop culture blogs, mommy blogs&#8230; you name it, someone&#8217;s writing about it.</p>
<p>But what I consider this place to be, and the type of blog <em>I</em> relate to, are &#8220;lifestyle&#8221; blogs. People who talk about the interesting things that happen to them; momentous life events, hopes and dreams, funny stories, and the like. And if I had to wager a guess, the vast majority of posts from these blogs involve one little thing we can ALL relate to:</p>
<p><em>VENTING.</em></p>
<p>Delightfully exaggerated, unadulterated hatred for the minute, yet uncompromisingly annoying day-ins and day-outs of our lives. The endless atrocities that strangers, traffic, and small children commit against us each and every day. Dare I say, a lot of this very blog revolves around such things; in fact, if you click on my post category &#8220;<a href="http://www.livitluvit.com/category/hatred" target="blank">hatred</a>&#8220;, there are some 25 posts there alone. While I don&#8217;t think this is unusual, as writing is often a therapeutic outlet for frustration, I do sometimes worry that all you guys see of me is the haterade. It&#8217;s only natural- we as humans are much more likely to share a bad experience than a good one, because <strong>dammit, commiseration feels GOOD</strong>, yo. But I don&#8217;t want that to be the only side of me shown here.</p>
<p>Truly, I am a lover. I love LOTS of stuff. I love dive bars, wine, red meat, brunch, cats, rollercoasters, cheeseburgers, and- believe it or not- even a sizeable handful of people in this world.</p>
<p><em>(Sidebar: while we&#8217;re on this topic, are you one of those people who says you &#8220;love to laugh&#8221; in your social media bio? Because ZOMG YOU MUST BE THE ONLY PERSON IN THE WORLD WHO LIKES THAT! You are so </em>original<em>. I bet you also don&#8217;t like having the flu, and that you prefer Fridays to Mondays! Let&#8217;s bond over our mutual affinity for being happy rather than sad together!!)</em></p>
<p>Whoops&#8230; a little venting fell out. Moving on!</p>
<p>So, to mix it up, here&#8217;s some of the GOOD in my life &#8211; those little things that will make me love you, almost as quickly as standing on the left side of the escalator will make me shank you.</p>
<p>What?</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Things That Will Make Me Instantly Adore You:</h2>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 250px">
	<img src="http://i2.squidoocdn.com/resize/squidoo_images/-1/lens4707422_1242530518lion-zebra-hug.jpg" alt="" width="250" height="246" />
	<p class="wp-caption-text">(thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much!)</p>
</div>
<p style="text-align: center;">Making a &#8220;there&#8217;s always money in the banana stand&#8230;&#8221; reference.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Belting out a song in public, karaoke or impromptu.<em> (Extra points as the song gets more embarrassing.)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Giving your seat on the bus to a lady, a munchkin, someone older, etc.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Being fully aware of, accepting, and openly discussing your flaws (not in a debbie-downer way; just a self aware, &#8220;I&#8217;m working on this&#8221; way).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Admitting when you&#8217;re wrong.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Giving me an honest opinion in the dressing room. I am depending on you to set me up for (booty) success, here.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Expressing a love for meat.<em> (Extra points for meat wrapped in other meat.)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em> </em></p>
<div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 414px">
	<em><a href="http://www.bbqaddicts.com/blog/recipes/bacon-explosion/"><img class="  " src="http://www.bbqaddicts.com/blog/images/bacon-12.jpg" alt="" width="414" height="311" /></a></em>
	<p class="wp-caption-text">YES and also PLEASE.</p>
</div>
<p style="text-align: center;">Not being afraid to cancel our grandiose plans of sight-seeing or museums in favor of getting tipsy and people watching.<em> (Also see: recognizing the inherent value in getting tipsy and people watching).</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Showing up at my house with an awesomely bad movie and three bottles of wine&#8230; for the two of us.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Openly weeping</span> tearing up at children&#8217;s movies. <em>(Up, Wall-E, Toy Story 3, I&#8217;m looking at you.)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Getting me a wee present when you go on vacation, just because you wished I was there.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Knowing that <a href="http://istandwithplannedparenthood.blogspot.com/" target="blank">women have a right to their bodies</a>, and everyone has a right to get married.</p>
<div class="mceTemp mceIEcenter" style="text-align: center;">
<dl class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px;">
<dt class="wp-caption-dt"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ckRT2eHEn24/Sd5vVUYUmbI/AAAAAAAAANk/PU3RolTEl88/s400/Gay_Weddings_gay_marriage.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></dt>
<dd class="wp-caption-dd">Adoramable.</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<p style="text-align: center;">Only judging me a little when I openly mock jeggings for months, and then maybe sort of buy a pair&#8230; <em>(only for boots! I swear!)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Tipping the bartender&#8230; well.<em><br />
</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em></em>Not having a ginormous stick up your ass. <em>(This shouldn&#8217;t be as hard to find as it is.)</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Surrounding yourself with quality people who are funny, welcoming, and also don&#8217;t have ginormous sticks up their asses.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Come to think of it, I may just change my <a href="http://twitter.com/livitluvit" target="blank">Twitter bio</a> to &#8220;I totally don&#8217;t have a stick up my ass, even if I did hypocritically buy a pair of jeggings.&#8221; Thoughts?</p>

			<p>I&#8217;ve led quite the charmed life, in truth.</p>
<p>Sure, there were a few miserable years in middle school. A (real, not teeny bopper) heart break or three. A grandfather passed- and though devastating, at 86, he&#8217;d led a full and honorable life, and was surrounded by an enormous family and friends who loved him dearly.</p>
<p>So. No, I&#8217;m not rich. In money, anyway&#8230; but as far as everything else? You know, the stuff that matters?</p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;m making it rain, y&#8217;all.</strong></p>
<p>While I absolutely do my fair share of bitching and moaning (I mean, sometimes, chained to this desk, there&#8217;s just nothing else to DO)- I&#8217;ve recently reached the opinion that I really need to just shut the hell up. Because between the fam, the man, the friends near and far, the city I love, you guys on the interwebs, the furbabies, and even the whole &#8220;living in America, land of the free&#8221; thing&#8230; I&#8217;m pretty much a fat cat, livin&#8217; large and whatnot.</p>
<div id="attachment_6220" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 473px">
	<img class="size-full wp-image-6220 " title="fatcat" src="http://www.livitluvit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/fatcat.jpg" alt="" width="473" height="355" />
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Basically me, if the dollah dollah bills were priceless treasures of LOVE and FRIENDSHIP and all that jazz.</p>
</div>
<p>Last week, some of my <a href="http://lemmonex.com/2010/09/here-we-are/" target="_blank">favorite</a> <a href="http://www.itsunbeweavable.com/2010/10/you-are-still-her-you-are-still-her.html" target="_blank">people</a> on the planet had their worlds <em>rocked</em>. In the Red Letter Day kind of way. I&#8217;m so hurt, so angry, so ACHING for them, and frankly, this shroud of helplessness? Isn&#8217;t really my color, either.</p>
<p>So for them, I count my blessings. For them, I stay strong, and try to make Liz laugh for the first time all day, and conspire to surprise Lexa with <a href="http://twitter.com/LexaLemmy/status/26123610199" target="_blank">a gift</a> from New York City, and to just <strong>be there </strong>for them, in that super corny but ohsoimportant sense.</p>
<p>Because life isn&#8217;t easy, and I know my time will come. I&#8217;m not naïve enough to think there won&#8217;t be incredible hardships in my future at some point.</p>
<p>I mean, they already canceled Arrested Development. COMMUNISTS. <em>(Yes I know it&#8217;s like six years ago now but NO I am not over it and I&#8217;m not sure I ever will be. In GOB we trust.)</em></p>
<p>Ahem. But in the meantime, I will enjoy my ridiculously snugglicious cocoon of warm, supportive, hilarious people in my life, who for whatever reason seem to think I&#8217;m pretty neat.</p>
<p>In the words of Patrick Swayze (RIP)&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Ditto.</strong></p>

<p>We&#8217;re going to have to pull out the big guns for this one, no doubt. If you&#8217;re unfamiliar, and<em> shame on you</em>, then let me show you it.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why you should desperately want to get a beer with Donald Glover:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EcD_Y838DXA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EcD_Y838DXA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why you should want to put Danny Pudi in your pocket and keep him with you at all times:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/b4NcsqSCXCU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/b4NcsqSCXCU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why Ken Jeong is way, way more than just the <a href="http://www.zigvideo.com/home/vdodetail/..QNxETO">MTV Movie Awards tiger song</a>:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/sc3ttMqZ6Dk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/sc3ttMqZ6Dk&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why I kind of want to lez it out for Allison Brie and Yvette Nicole Brown:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EM96GDNghu4&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EM96GDNghu4&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why you should heart Gillian Jacobs (after all, she&#8217;s TV-boned Joel McHale- JEALOUS):</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EDQyUqsCLXA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EDQyUqsCLXA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why, in a nutshell, this show is the greatest thing ever on television for all time:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fZJHamGNOFQ&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fZJHamGNOFQ&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>And finally, here&#8217;s why you should yearn for my golden unicorn, the ridiculously hot and twice as funny Joel McHale:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rYjiTujMJF0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rYjiTujMJF0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>(Um, if you have a crush on Joel as big as I do&#8230; feel free to jump to the two minute mark. DELISH.)</p>
<p>Okay, friends!!! So you know what we have to do! GO FORTH, INTERNET ARMY!!!! Don&#8217;t you want to see me try to rap the biblioteca song?!</p>

<p>Have you seen the hashtag <a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=savethefurbabies" target="_blank">#savethefurbabies</a> on Twitter lately?? AWESOME. Because it&#8217;s something I created to encourage support for our local animal shelters, whether you adopt, foster, volunteer, or even just donate a few bucks.</p>
<p>When MTV announced that our <a href="http://tj.mtv.com/2010/07/09/challenge-2-moved/" target="_blank">second challenge</a> was to:</p>
<blockquote><p><em><em>What inspires you and why? Answer using any form of media available to you. Examples include text, images, sound, or video.</em></em></p>
<p><em>Create a new hashtag on Twitter related to something you are passionate about. Use your influence to circulate your hashtag as many times and as broadly as possible.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>I knew EXACTLY what I wanted to do. And I&#8217;m sure none of you are surprised a bit. (Sidebar: Have you voted for @livitluvit for MTV&#8217;s TJ yet?? Do it <a href="http://apps.facebook.com/mtv-tj-search/ " target="_blank">here</a> in just a few clicks!)</p>
<p>B and I <a href="http://www.livitluvit.com/2009/04/i-am-mama-for-reals-this-time.html" target="_blank">rescued our own furbabies</a>, Murray and Axe Murderer <em>(sidebar: don&#8217;t ever tell your boyfriend he can have uncensored naming of a pet)</em>, from the unbelievably awesome <a href="http://www.homewardtrails.org/">Homeward Trails</a> about a year ago. Though B was hesitant (and allergic) at first, he now openly admits it&#8217;s the best idea I&#8217;ve ever had. (And I catch him singing to them on the regular. Hopefully he doesn&#8217;t read this&#8230;)</p>
<p>I spent Friday busy on the Tweet, asking you to share pictures of your own rescues and their stories, tagging them with the hashtag, which led to it being the top trending topic on Twicsy&#8230; which meant we could see ALL the <a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=savethefurbabies" target="_blank">#savethefurbabies</a> pictures right here:</p>
<p><a href="http://twicsy.com/tag/savethefurbabies" target="_blank">http://twicsy.com/tag/savethefurbabies</a></p>
<p><em>Melt melt melt.</em></p>
<p>And, more importantly, we also tweeted about HOW to help support our local shelters, like the <a href="http://support.washhumane.org/site/PageServer" target="blank">Washington Humane Society</a>:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://twitter.com/LivitLuvit/status/18119726686" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i556.photobucket.com/albums/ss5/Livitluvit/Screenshot2010-07-11at120914PM.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><a href="http://support.washhumane.org/site/PageServer?pagename=adopt" target="_blank">ADOPT</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://support.washhumane.org/site/PageServer?pagename=volunteerfoster" target="_blank">VOLUNTEER &amp; FOSTER</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://secure3.convio.net/whsdc/site/Donation2?idb=0&amp;df_id=1360&amp;1360.donation=form1&amp;JServSessionIdr004=eik9dl9g22.app332b" target="_blank">GIVE</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">(If you can&#8217;t donate $$$, they need plenty of other things, like linens, food, litter, etc. More info in the vlog below.)</p>
<p>Yesterday morning, I headed over to the <a href="http://support.washhumane.org/site/PageServer" target="_blank">Washington Humane Society</a> to have a chat with Jess Townsend, the WHS Adoption Manager. We walked around taking pictures as I explained what I was trying to do, and she filled me in on ways people could help, told me the animals&#8217; stories (a few of the kitties there were rescues from <a href="http://washhumane.typepad.com/blog/2010/06/far-too-many.html" target="_blank">the hoarder&#8217;s house in VA</a>), and laughing at how ridiculous the ladies on &#8220;Say Yes to the Dress&#8221; are. (What? Reality TV is forever intertwined in my life. I can&#8217;t help it.)</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s some pictures of the gorgeous creatures I got to see:<a href="http://www.livitluvit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/IMG_4982.jpg"><br />

Sora, you are an angel. A very, VERY talented angel. Look at these!</p>

<p>Moving on.</p>
<p>So. You MAY have heard that I&#8217;m going to be traveling to the great state of Nevada tomorrow, to the land of slot machines and margaritas-the-size-of-heads, and all things sequiny and delightfully tacky.</p>
<p>B will not be joining me because he is a sane person (wha wha wha???), but as I told him last night, it&#8217;s cool because Aunt Flo&#8217;s in town. So not only does he get to miss out on THAT business, I can&#8217;t cheat on him! Really, I&#8217;m going to Vegas for HIM.</p>
<p>Such a giver, I am.</p>
<p>The things I plan on doing over the next three days are as follows:</p>
<blockquote><p>Have an ass-slapping contest with <a href="http://sothisismygig.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Lbluca77</a>.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Not</span> be totally weird with my most favoritest <a href="http://www.vixationsblog.com/" target="_blank">Vixen</a>.</p>
<p>Have a baby with our resident mama bear, <a href="http://www.mominreallife.com/" target="_blank">Rachel</a>. (Don&#8217;t worry, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, right? Babies totally count.)</p>
<p>Make naughty kitty-cat jazz hands with <a href="http://cattails.me/" target="_blank">verybadcat</a>.</p>
<p>Maul <a href="http://www.clevergirlgoesblog.com/" target="_blank">Tia</a> wildly and inappropriately the moment I see her. (Sorry, Ben. It&#8217;s happening.)</p>
<p>Swap &#8220;funny boyfriend&#8221; stories with <a href="http://www.michellewoo.com/" target="_blank">Michelle</a>.</p>
<p>Make <a href="http://www.kathleenparkerb.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Kathleen</a> eat some cheese, even if it&#8217;s just the schmoopy kind.</p>
<p>Swoon over vampires with <a href="http://www.thewayaliseesit.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Ali</a>. And maybe bite her a little when she&#8217;s not looking. What?</p>
<p>Call <a href="http://chasingparadise.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">StaceyParadise</a> &#8220;Tootsie Pop&#8221;.</p>
<p>Get <a href="http://thisiswhyidate.wordpress.com" target="_blank">Mel</a> drunk off wine and make her tell me about her worst date of all time.</p>
<p>Embrace my quirks and inner klutz with <a href="http://manderzmusings.com/" target="_blank">Mandy</a>.</p>
<p>Give <a href="http://www.heysmalls.com/" target="_blank">Lindsay</a> 1,000 bear hugs so she&#8217;s not scared of us all. Even though she probably should be.</p>
<p>Immediately go up in flames when <a href="http://nicoleisbetter.com/" target="_blank">Nicole</a>&#8216;s crazy and my crazy finally meet. God have mercy on us all.</p>
<p>Draw on someone with Sharpie with <a href="http://www.bitemarksblog.blogspot.com/">Leahchristine</a>.</p>
<p>See <a href="http://justatitch.com/" target="_blank">Amy&#8217;s</a> feisty in person. It may not be on the blog, but <em>I</em> know it&#8217;s there.</p>
<p>Drink endless mimosas with <a href="http://doniree.com/" target="_blank">Doni</a>.</p>
<p>Indulge in a boatload of unnecessary carbs with <a href="http://www.myeverydayadventures.com/" target="_blank">Jessica</a>.</p>
<p>Do karaoke with <a href="http://chelseatalkssmack.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Chelsea</a>, because she can actually sing + I am the most tone-deaf person of all time = HILARIOUS.</p>
<p>Make poop jokes with <a href="http://nicopolitan.com/" target="_blank">Nicopolitan</a>.</p>
<p>Help <a href="http://rondamarie.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">RondaMarie</a> drink to forget.</p>
<p>Reminisce about the days when the BoSox didn&#8217;t suck with <a href="http://ohhayitskk.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">ohhayitskk</a>.</p>
<p>Steal <a href="http://www.prettysandyfeet.com/" target="_blank">Katelin&#8217;s</a> awesome hair. (Yes, I know it&#8217;s not a wig. But put enough tequila in me and I&#8217;ll swear it can be done.)</p>
<p>Get 412 makeovers from the fabulous <a href="http://itsunbeweavable.com" target="_blank">Lizzy Marie</a>, my bi-coastal BFeffinF.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Make</span> <em>listen to because I&#8217;m not</em> brown people jokes with <a href="http://wearingtshirts.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Rahul</a> (dot not feather).</p>
<p>Try not to make <a href="http://www.onewaydown.com/" target="_blank">Mary</a> and <a href="http://www.ishineoutloud.com/shine/" target="_blank">Shine</a> sorry they agreed to room with Maxie and me.</p>
<p>Belt out Backstreet Boys everywhere we go with <a href="http://www.gingermandy.com" target="_blank">GingerMandy</a> and <a href="http://www.dramaticsigh.com/" target="_blank">Just A Girl</a>.</p>
<p>Remarry my beloved <a href="http://ihatesomuch.com" target="_blank">Maxie</a>, preferably by an Elvis impersonator, or someone wearing an ascot.</p>
<p>See what the hell it is that <a href="http://www.noordinaryrollercoaster.com/" target="_blank">Ben</a> got her, in reference to this tweet:</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5044" title="maxie.jpg" src="http://www.livitluvit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/maxie.jpg.png" alt="" width="418" height="242" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p>To all the rest of you I have <strong>not </strong>yet had the pleasure of meeting, in person or on the interwebs&#8230; I can&#8217;t freaking wait to fix that. And every single one of you should prepare yourself for a too-tight-hug.</p>
<p>See you tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

			<p>Boston, Chicago, Colorado, L.A., San Diego, Texas, Washington State, North Carolina, <em>all over</em> Canada, Saratoga Springs, New York City, the UK, China, Indonesia, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, Baltimore, Pennsylvania, Jersey, Cleveland, Detroit, Vegas, Egypt, New England, South Dakota&#8230; the list goes on and on.</p>
<p>The list of people that I adore, that is&#8230; and the glaring fact that they are so very, very too far away from me.</p>
<p>These people that I interact with almost every day, they <a href="http://www.whitecollarredneck.com/2010/02/engaging.html">get engaged</a>. They <a href="http://www.itsunbeweavable.com/">have birthdays</a> (tomorrow!) and bring home <a href="http://www.themaidenmetallurgist.com/2010/01/his-name-is-tiberius.html">new puppies</a> and <a href="http://kellielea.blogspot.com/2010/01/holy-shit-theres-baby-in-there.html">get knocked up</a> and they do it all. without. me!</p>
<p>Now, look. I completely recognize that DC is a *unique* crew in that A) there are a <em>lot</em> of us and B) we hang out more often than any strange group of people who met each other off the internet rightfully should&#8230; and sure, it&#8217;s always a good time. We do it right. (Like we will <a href="http://twtvite.com/03dsq2">this Friday</a>.)</p>
<p>But every time we do, I feel like a few dozen (hundred) people are missing.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s 2000 TEN, after all! How do we not have teleportation yet?! (Because you know it&#8217;s #1 use would be to bring bloggers together&#8230;)</p>
<p>So yes, Internet, I am hereby dubbing you <strong>A Tease</strong>. You e-introduce me to all these great people from all over, and then never let me <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">tenderly hold them in my arms and stroke their hair</span> give them a bear hug when they <a href="http://youllgrowtoloveme.com/im-kind-of-over-this-school-thing/">graduate</a> <a href="http://classyinphilly.blogspot.com/2010/02/four-years-ago-i-never-thought.html">from college</a>? When they stand up to their bosses and <a href="http://www.caviandra.com/2010/02/hq-update/">demand to be placed in D.C.</a> (yes I&#8217;m biased)? When Lady Gaga <a href="http://chelseatalkssmack.blogspot.com/2010/01/im-not-dead-time-lady-gaga-almost-stole.html">almost steals their boyfriends</a>?</p>
<p>I call bullshit, Interwebs.</p>
<p>Bull.</p>
<p>Shit.</p>
