Christlike Crushes

It was a mild Sunday evening when Henry and I decided to take the kid for a leisurely after dinner stroll around the neighborhood. We managed to make it three blocks before colliding with a pair of Mormon elders, looking especially clean cut and dashing in their dress shirts and meticulously parted

If You Ever Wanted to Induce a Heart Attack

If You Ever Wanted to Induce a Heart Attack

I want to talk about something that changed my life, something that made me appreciate terra firma. I want to talk about a mean little thrill ride called the Swingshot.   Clickie for video of its gnashing jaws of death in action When the Swingshot was the new ride for summer '06 at Kennywood

Kennywood Anticipation

Kennywood Anticipation

We drove past our local amusement park -- Kennywood -- yesterday while out and about. Usually, seeing the hill of the Phantom's Revenge jutting out from the park, appearing to touch the clouds, barely fazes me, but yesterday it kind of shocked me with a thrill. Maybe because it's about to open in tw

Westmoreland County Fair, alright? PART ONE

Westmoreland County Fair, alright? PART ONE

Before I regale you with the story of our (not so) debaucherous trip to the Westmoreland County Fair last Wednesday, I feel that it's prudent to backpedal and preface that yarn with another tale that is absolutely wrought with horror and gore. It all happened in the wee hours of Sunday, August 23

Cupcakes: An Honest Review

Sunday afternoon, we decided to try a semi-new cupcake specialty shop called CoCo's. Now, keeping in mind that I reside in Pittsburgh (which, for those of you who are unaware, is not exactly a mecca for cupcake couture), I did not hold my hopes so high and loose that they'd soar away through the atm

When Cupcakes Surpass Expectations: A Positive Review

I have a confession, something I've been holding out on: I succeeded in finding good cupcakes in Pittsburgh and I have known about them now since Sunday.  But I didn't want to go forth and hold a circle jerk in their honor until I tried them again. And again. And once more. The nirvana in a cup of

Freaky Features: The Tiny Tragedies

Coral Armour of the Tiny Tragedies was one of the first members of Etsy's Dark Side that I came across. I remember this distinctly because it was last fall and I desperately wanted something from her shop but Henry said NO because he's MEAN and clearly was home sick the day all the boys learned ab

What Bill & Jessi Look Like On a Computer Screen, with Elvis.

Category: Uncategorized

My awesome friends Bill & Jessi got married yesterday by Elvis in Las Vegas. I wasn’t able to turn enough tricks to finance a trip out there, but luckily there was a webcast. So Alisha came over and we ate cupcakes while waiting for the big show to start. I mean, you know it’s a Really Big Deal when Alisha willingly puts down the Chia Pet she’s grooming to come over to my house to watch something on the computer.

Chooch pretty much had no idea what was going on, and every time Elvis started to sing, he’d slap his hands over his ears and yell, “TURN THIS DOWN!” Alisha was closest to the speaker, but she was too busy ogling Jessi’s boobs to rescue Chooch’s hearing.

You can’t really tell from a photo taken of a computer screen, but Jessi looked ridiculously hot in her dress. How could Bill concentrate??

And Bill’s hair was ridiculously pomp’d up. It was impressive. How could Jessi concentrate??

There was a major party vibe to the ceremony and I can’t imagine anything otherwise for the two of them. It was so sweet and fun to watch, but I wish I could have been there in person.

TOO CLOSE!

Congratulations, Bill & Jessi!!

    yay! I love it when people get married, especially by Elvis.
    On a personal note…this was the same dude in the same place that married Paul and I, but dressed up as the Grim Reaper.

    What a cool coincidence! That guy must be a very talented actor!

    I think it would be so fun to get married in Vegas. Or….anywhere.

    SIGH.

    It WAS hard to concentrate! I wasn’t able to see her until she came jiggling down the aisle, so it was rather difficult to keep my composure.

    Thanks for tuning in you guys, it means a lot that you would pop on and watch! We missed the hell out of you and wished you were there. Keep your eyes peeled on Jessi’s flickr for various pictures.

    Yea, my cleavage was out of control! I was seriously concerned I’d have a wardrobe malfunction at any moment…

    I posted a ton of pics on fb and on my flickr, lots of documentation of the fun.

    I missed you too, but your pendant was worn proudly as part of the celebration.

    Thanks for all the support, we are so happy it went so well!
