I have a new contest starting. It’s a Back Fence PDX contest. I’m contest crrrrrrrazy!

So, here’s the deal. The first 50 people to RSVP on Upcoming for our August 13th event get a free Back Fence PDX button! I KNOW!

Isn’t it totally cute? Little birdie 1-inch button. And you win it if you’re in the first 50 people to RSVP and attend our August 13th event.
And…because I love being a walking billboard, and because someone I know loves tote bags, I made this too. This is not something you can win, but you can buy it right here.

Okay, good so you want to wear the birdie, right? Right? And you want to come to our August 13th event.

Now, I know you’re all dying to know what’s happening with the Melissa Lion Street Recognition Contest. So far, I’ve worn lipstick and a cute outfit everywhere I’ve gone. And nothing. I did see my friend Don P. at Urban Grind in NW, but I already knew him. And I was sitting there with my back to him and he said, “Melissa?” And my stomach fell through the floor because THIS WAS MY MOMENT! And I saw Don and I was ready to just give him the mug because wow! He saw me! Except I know him. And I don’t think he reads my blog so he had no idea about the mug. But he does mow his lawn barefoot.

Anyway, that’s all that’s going on in my life. Not really, but that’s all I’m willing to share with the internets.

    I ordered a tote bag!

    Thank you for feeding my addiction. And my ego.

    You know I’ll be there so I won’t even bother with the fancy Yahoo RSVP business.

    Yeah, well I’d RSVP but I guess I’m SOL because I don’t live over there so I can’t go.

    Boo.

    I want a button anyway.

    Because I’m special.

    Apollo: Email me your address and I’ll send you a button.

    KK: Thank you!

    Zoe: Don’t you want a button? Okay, I’ll just give you one because you gave me one 6 years ago.

    Kristen: Same as Apollo.

    I’m friends with your new super-intern, Nathalie. She has forced … I mean, told me I should totally come to Back Fence PDX, so I will be there!

    Also, you are lovely and hilarious. And I fear that I will become just as much a stalker of you as Nathalie was. Is. Whatever.
