Shiny Summary

OK, Jes, I know you're secretary, so feel free to add/correct me as needed, but I just wanted to summarize things before I forgot them...

1. Ryah, you are getting your shirt and an extra one for SM tomorrow at Old Navy. We'll pay you for the silkscreening and SM's shirt when we see you on the 6th?

2. We are (pretend) taking Ryah's parent's Bella truck on a road trip. Maybe to Forks, maybe to Chicago, maybe to the MOA, maybe just down the street. But it'd be great to get a picture with it no matter what...(maybe we could rent a silver Volvo for the day too? And an old crappy Rabbit?)

3. We are making Twilight the Musical. (This is my favorite.) Comment with who you'll be playing and we can start scripts!!! :-)

4. Kari, can't wait to see the finalized logo you come up with tonight!

5. I hope it's OK, Kari, that I asked you for a Hitch Me Baby banner for TM - whenever you want to debut it... ;-)

6. We are getting together for an SVC meeting at Kari's (is that what we decided?) and karaoke at Boulevard's on Saturday, May 24th. I am keeping Friday, May 23rd open just in case any of you want to get together that night as well (I was waaayyy too sad I had to miss the last SVC meeting).

7. We are having a Special Edition Eclipse party at my house (in Cottage Grove - if that's OK with everyone...) on Saturday, May 31st. Ryah will bring her copy, and hopefully mine will come in the mail by then. Alison - wanna drive in for this one?

8. We had an intense discussion about who Jacob will imprint on, if anyone. I think we should make a chart or scale to show where everyone is at on the Edward love factor versus Jacob love factor...I might make one...or maybe I'll make a Seventeen magazine-ish quiz titled: Are you a vampire or werewolf girl? That could be fun, even though everyone knows who they're rooting for already. I could use Survey Monkey.

9. We also discussed whether Bella will be changed right away in BD, if at all. ???

10. I had so much fun tonight. Alison...if you change your mind about May 6th, we're meeting at the Barnes and Noble in MOA at 7am that day. ;-)

Off to brainstorm a quiz and ideas for the musical!

25 enjoyed the bouquet.:

I totally forgot about Speed Racer! Jes, I saw your comment - it opens May 8th, so maybe we could see it that night? Are people going to be around that weekend? I was probably going out of town...but nothing's set in stone yet.

Erin said...

And also, if anyone finds a pirated version of the trailer, the movie, or anything else, we are SO watching it!!!

Erin said...

And Alison...since you're in Chicago, you should TOTALLY find where the Masen household was ;-)

alison said...

daaaamn... You guys did too much! I am so happy you are giving sm a tee! would she sign a book for me? can you tell her that i exist???

I get to be alice. I decided. I have a lot of experience being the sidekick/funny girl (I am a "character actress") in plays and stuff, plus I have short hair and I am a lot of fun. It won't be hard for me to start up an eating disorder to get skinny enough...

what else... probably won't make it to may 31 but you never know! I will try to come memorial day weekend, and if you decide to get together on friday night, I could try to come late...

so jealous of the night!!!

alison said...

where was the masen household???

Erin said...

I don't know. If you see any particularly beautiful houses...maybe...

Erin said...

alison said...

awesomes. (about the book).

maybe you should show her a pic of my patch!!!! or bring it to her!! shit. its here with me.

as for the house, there are sooo many pretty houses in chicago...

Jes said...

that's a great idea to get alison a copy signed!

Erin said...

We could definitely bring a pic of the patch!

Kari said...

Yesss.... we will totally get the book signed and explain to SM that you were so bummed you couldn't come.

Corinne said...

I am getting more excited for the day. Good work ladies.

alison said...

damn... I was just checking the calendar hoping there was a way I could finagle my self to be there... I forgot it was a Tuesday... It would be *almost* as cool as when I met dave and he kissed me... ahhh.

Erin said...

What's a few nights' sleep?? You could leave after work on Monday...and leave right after the signing...

I know! I'll bring my air mattress to MOA so you can sleep while we're in line. ;-)

Erin said...

And I think the only thing that could trump Dave kissing you would be Jacob kissing you...

Erin said...

Didn't Dave tell you you smelled delicious, too?? That was very Edward of him...

alison said...

erin, you are right! I am SOOOO dave's bella!!!

Jes said...

i dont know who dave is.....

Jes said...

i dont know who dave is.....

Erin said...

He is a vampire! That explains his musical talent!! And you are his Bella...

Erin said...

Dave Matthews! :-)

Jes said...

HA- that's what my first thought was, but then i chided myself for thinking it was somthing like that!

alison said...

Jes, here is a little (but long) exerpt from a long post on my old blog about when I met Dave Matthews last summer...
I was n ext, so dave came over to me and was looking at me... it gets a little hazy from that point on. I think he told me that he was writing a song and that my friend didn't get it. I agreed with him. Then all of the sudden, he was at my left side and I was like "what are you doing?" and he grabbed me and said "stand like this" And I had no idea what was going on, but suddenly i felt his face on my ear, and everyone started laughing and i made hysterical faces while my picture was taken.
Then we resumed normal people positions for more photos. After that, he said "you know, the left side of your head smells delicious". "really delicious". and i said thank you. (again, all this is very fuzzy so this isn't really an accurate depiction). Then I think I akwardly handed him my ticket to sign, and he asked my name, and wrote "Al" and paused and looked at me, and I spelled the rest out for him, and he was like "I wanted to make sure I got it right" which was surprising to me because everyone always spells my name for me and its always wrong. then he was like "let me ask you something, do I smell like delicious egg rolls? Because I think I smell like delicious egg rolls" and I kind of stood there for a second not knowing what to do, and then I leaned into him, and he turned his neck to me, and I sniffed Dave Matthews. Weird! And then (I don't know why I said this) I said "you do smell like egg rolls, but not delicious" and then he just looked at me, and I took it back "just kidding. you do smell delicious"
