Right before work, I stopped at the grocery store to get a muffin and a juice and there were all these little old people doing their shopping. It was vCute. They all came together on a yellow school bus and they had their hats and their coats and I thought that maybe getting old won’t be so bad, if I get to go to the grocery store on a yellow school bus with a bunch of friends. I don’t know, maybe all those people weren’t friends, but it sounds like fun, doesn’t it?<\/p>\n
Maybe it’s just me.<\/p>\n
Two of my best friends are about to turn 30 in February. I am pretty freaked out for them. I wish we could all be together and celebrate\/mourn as a group, but they live in Arizona and I live here and there’s work and school and kids and all sorts of stuff in the way. But I really need to do something special for them. Anyone have any good ideas? What would someone facing down the evilness that is TURNING 30 (please say in a deep, booming, dooming voice) want? I myself wouldn’t know since I am not anywhere NEAR turning 30.<\/p>\n
Sad but true: I still have winter solstice gifts for my friends that I have not sent. But I will! I promise!<\/p>\n
Alright. It’s true. I am thinking of holding some sort of loafe contest and whoever wins will receive a loafe prize package, which will include a book, a CD, some hand-crafted items, artwork, a beverage perhaps, and maybe a tasty snack. But what sort of contest could I hold? I do not even know.<\/p>\n
Wait! I know! I could have a contest for The Best Contest Idea. The winner: the person who comes up with the most appealing contest idea. A contest about a contest! A meta-contest!<\/p>\n
I think that perhaps I should win the prize package, because my meta-contest idea is obviously the best. But the whole reason there IS a prize package is because I have these items that I do not want (for various reasons, but not because any of these items are lame, because they are not lame, they are vCool). So clearly I cannot win my own contest.<\/p>\n
I will have to think this through and then get back to you all with details regarding the upcoming loafe contest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
