adventures of the sci-fi, wiener and musical kind

July 31st, 2008 at 8:00 am . Posted in Chicago, CYOB, music, twitter .

Tomorrow around this time, there will be a piece of science fiction on this little blog here. I figured I’d warn you in advance so you’re not like “who the fuck does Jamie think she is? George Lucus or something?!” I can’t promise Ewoks or facehuggers but it will be fun. In case you haven’t heard by now, it will be the second time Nancy Pearl Wannabe has hosted the Choose Your Own Blogventure series and I’ll be taking part. So make sure you stop by tomorrow and play along!

Ben has been dropping hints of a super secret project he has been working on and today I can final reveal that I will be taking part of this no longer secret project too!

Ten bloggers. Fifteen mini dachshunds. One blog.
Can you handle it?
Go check it out! There are cute puppy pictures, giveaways and of course, antics of your favorite wiener dogs. Winston included!

Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be spent sweating it out with the 75,000+ people expected to show up at Grant Park for Lollapalooza. There will be some really great bands and I’m really looking forward to it. Just to make you a little jealous, here is a taste of who I will see: Duffy, Radiohead, Mates of States, Explosions in the Sky, Spankrock, DJ AM, Brand New, The Weakerthans, Chromeo and my lovah, Mark Ronson.

Jess is prepared to bail me out of jail in case I get in trouble with the law for trying to sneak attack Mark Ronson’s face. In case I die of heatstroke, you all have to battle it out on who gets to keep my pretty blog.

Are you going to Lolla or just wanna keep up with me because you know I will be twittering my face off all weekend?

P.S. Want a cute and FREE header by the lovely lady who made my amazing design? Go here!

    You are a much much braver woman than I to brave those crowds. Gives me the creeps just thinking about it!

    But no Jane’s Addiction? Weird. Mostly I’d only want to see Radiohead. Have fun!

    How cute! I love me some doxies. I can’t wait to go to the Weiner Dog Weinernationals this September… does that “tour” (or whatever it technically is… a competition?) go up to the Chicago area?

    I hope you’ve had a great time so far at Lollapalooza and that you haven’t been arrested for sneak attacking Mark Ronson. (:

    Yay for the super secret wiener project! I love it!
