A few of my favorite things

I'm looking forward to TwiCon and Dallas for more than the obvious reasons.

1. I get to talk Twilight for FOUR DAYS with people who speak fluent Edward.
2. I get to have TEX MEX and drink sangria swirled frozen margaritas from Papasitos
3. I get to see Rick Springfield in a Gilley's style honkey tonk on Saturday night
4. I get to be with my favorite girlies all weekend - and no kiddos!!
5. I get to meet a bunch of gals that I've been working with for ages, but have never seen face to face.
6. I'll be in close proximity to Emmett, Jasper and Alice and by 'close proximity' I mean within stalking distance. ;)

Life is good.

Leaving on a jet plane


Bags packed - check!
Inventory shipped - check!
Everything we needed to confirm, is confirmed - check!
Well rested and ready to take on TwiCon - erhm...HELLS YEAH!!

Well, maybe not the well rested bit, but we're definitely ready to go. We'll be tweeting and blogging from the convention floor in Dallas so be sure to check in regularly. I've got my friend Brigette's Little Eddie, so we'll be sending up lots of fun pictures and hopefully some juicy deets from the convention. Don't know about Little Eddie? Keep watching the blog and you will!!

SIX DAYS!!



Only six days until TwiCon! The Pretty looks exactly how we feel right about now. Its crazy and we're tired, but its fun!!

We have a new playlist today. Russ and Andy already sussed out the "what do these musicians have in common" theme, but can you? Its really not that tricksy.

We Might Be Crazy

This is our reply to everyone who thinks we're both just a wee bit crazy for doing what we do and for taking the show on the road to TwiCon.

Gratuitous Robward and new tunes

This weeks music picks: 30 Seconds to Mars - Edge of the Earth; Kasabian - Club Foot; and Kings of Leon - Notion.

We're both just a little in love with Jared Leto / Jordan Catalano. It can't be helped. Kasabian provides Jess with her vampy soundtrack and KOL is just plain cool.

I was a little sad to see that the Pretty had almost fallen off the page. There aren't many rules around here, but there is one: A Robward post must be present on the front page at all times. Carry on...

Stupid, shiny Volvo Shirt


We're printing the CAR Shirts for TwiCon this week. We've got the Yellow Porsche for Alice fans, Emmett's Jeep, Bella's Chevy and of course dear Edward's Volvo. Which one is YOUR favorite?

15 Days Until TwiCon

Fourteen days and we're on a plane to Dallas for TwiCon. WE CAN'T WAIT!! Jess is a little nervous, but I keep reassuring her that she speaks fluent Twilight, so she'll be just fine. We're banging out the last of the inventory this weekend (we hope) and then shipping everything off. Woo Hoo!!!

Damn Jacob Ruled My Day

We spent the ENTIRE day printing our "Imprint Me" shirts. They're gorgeous, but holy Hell...can't a girl just focus on the MOST important character and his shirts for one hot second? Jess loves the pup, and so do Jody and Tim, and today I get word that after a re-vamp of New Moon, Jos has crossed over as well. Has the world tilted on it axis and gone mad?

The pic that is included in this post is to placate our Jacob girls...and boys. Its rare, and quite honestly it hurt my heart to go in search of the damn thing, but after a few requests (thanks for the back up RUSS) I had to appease. Enjoy it while you can, it won't happen often.

We have officially lost our minds. We've caved and entered the big, bad, over-involved world of Twitter. Pray for us...and then send us a tweet!!

Southern Vamps...maybe a Jasper?

We printed all our Southern Vampire shirts for TwiCon and they're BE-YU-TE-FUL!!! We've made one for Jasper in hopes that we'll be able to give it to him in Dallas. We're going to his 100 Monkeys show during the con and we've got a little insider access and have hopes that we'll be able to meet him afterwards. WOOT!!! Jasper wearin' our Southern shirt would just be too cool.

Robward on a Fixie


Jess and I work together and have for the last - ooh jeez, what is it - almost 8 years in the transportation industry. Today, our Twilight world and our work world collided with an email that included a pic of Robward on a bike. To be more precise an authentic brakeless 'fixie'. The fixed gear bike kids are blogging about it all over the place and its making the nerdy transportaiton circuit. Woot!
