So what did you people do over the weekend?

[cupcake_goth]

I have not read anything on LJ since, oh, mid-day on Friday. Because I was off with a bunch of people I am fond of and do not get to see anywhere NEAR as often I want. So hey! Is there stuff I need to know about? Please tell me here!


For those of you in the PNW: the KING 5 Evening Magazine interview with me airs on Monday the 22nd! Show starts at 7PM, and I don't know when in the show my segment will run. Oh, and I would like to beg a favor of one of you Tivo-having types: could someone please record it for me? Pretty please? Thank you!

KING 5 was relentless promoting the Gothic Charm School episode during coverage of the U.S. Open. Because golf fans are definitely the target audience for your book.

What kind of blurb are they using? We haven't seen it.

Pete, I'm shocked you weren't watching golf all weekend.

The hostb says "Gothic ... Charm School! Monday on Evening Magazine." That's it. Must've seen it ten times.

I saw it, and it said something like "Imagine going Goth - for good." Then it had action shots of Jilli doing extremely Goth tasks, like talking and standing upright.

This was during the 11 pm news.

I remember Jilli being shown grocery shopping. :) Also, they filmed her in a mirror; it was neat.

Jilli, I'm tivoing it but have had difficulty getting my tivo to drop things to VHS tape. (Maybe I could just hit record on my VCR if I am home by 7, though.) I am glad to observe (below) that you ought to be able to get a DVD from Evening Magazine themselves?

So what did you people do over the weekend?

The usual, I suppose.
BBQ and celebrate with graduating friends, revel in the fact that I am not yet radioactive, nurse my aching head and body, got my massage chair back, sacrifice virgins to Cthulhu...

Maybe someone can post the segment to youtube so we can all see it?

Durrr. That's what I get for assuming it was our Greenwood...lol!

But wait, why *don't* we have more things like this here? :)

Thanks Staxxy.

Congratulations on the spot! I hope it was a good interview, and they were nice to you. I'd love to see the footage if somebody is able to record it.

Glad you had a good weekend. :) I went to a convention on saturday, where I helped out backstage with a Japanese theatre production. Went to my friends' house sunday and played vampire.

[botgrrrl.livejournal.com]

I painted some Uruk-hai miniatures. What? Right. Sorry. You didn't need to know that.

If you ask King5 nicely, they will send you a DVD of the segment, which you can then rip to your computer (I used an application called Handbrake) and put on youtube. That's what I did! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rioG0v7Rg2Y)

[master-cobweb.livejournal.com]

Yes. Do this so those of us in other states/countries can see! I'll tell my parents to watch it live, though!

Incidentally, arielmeadow, I clicked the link - very hilarious! I want to do a Salon of Shame in my town now! And you are my best friend's guru at the moment, just to let you know. She's planning a very big, very off-beat wedding for next summer and is constantly referring to your book and website. I love what she's read to me/shown me so far! :)

[arielmeadow.livejournal.com]

Oh jeez. Why, thank you. :)

[javagoth.livejournal.com]

Went to Club V on Saturday and had a wonderful time. Glad you had a great visit with friends!

[girlgoth.livejournal.com]

Yay! I'll tune in tonight for sure. I'm also planning on being at BN tomorrow for the book signing. I assume (presume?) that dressing up is encouraged? :)

In the past week/end:
M got a job!!! OMG!!11!1!
I got tix to DM for my bday!
Kicked some ass on Rock Band expert vocals. :D

Excitement!

friday I came home and.... honestly, I can not remember what happened that night. I know I was home. I think I worked on stuff on the computer.

Saturday was gaming.

Sunday was working on stuff in the computer and NOTHING. lots of nothing. and going to bed early.
