#yvrboobquake

I am so excited about this Monday’s Boobquake that I think we need get people together and see if our collective cleavage can cause Vancouver’s ground to tremble. I’ve created a Facebook event for this Monday, but here are the details:

When: Monday, April 26th at 5:30pm
Where: The Black Frog in Gastown – 108 Cambie St;  down from the Steam Clock
Why: Boobs are awesome

This is an open, informal event – dress down your girls, bring some friends, and come have a beer or two. If the ground starts shaking beneath the pub, we’ll know the Iranian Clerics are onto something.

Men are definitely invited, but I ask that they be respectful of both the boobs and the women they are attached to. Also, I think the guys should play along – if you’ve got moobs, bring ’em out. If not, undo those shirt buttons and show us some skin. Everyone can play! It’s for SCIENCE!

Hope to see you and your boobs on Monday!

you know?

My plan to take over the world one interview at a time, is slowly coming to fruition – I am this week’s Geek Speak over at the Straight. Stephen interviewed me last Friday, and the article hit the e-waves today:

please take me seriously as a professional

We did the interview over the phone, and my answers are pretty much word for word. It is embarrassing to see how I often I say “you know?”, which is apparently my version of “like” or “ummm”. At least, it should be – in my head, I’m just being polite and asking if the reader/listener is, in fact, knowing of what I am speaking. I can’t help it. I’m a trainer; I have an ingrained need to make sure people understand the point I am trying to get across.

Or it could just be that I am a very  bad speaker in general.

Still, hooray! I like being interviewed! So far this year I’ve been in the Straight, on Global TV, and on CBC for various things (being a geek, being at the opening ceremony rehearsal, and being online respectively). I am very slowly becoming famous in my own head! Soon I will be signing autographs and going clubbing in short skirts and no panties. Is it too soon to get an agent? Should I stop doing laundry so I can eBay my underpants? So many decisions to make!

I’m off to my next speaking engagement (aka doing my job – it’s time for Friday training) – when I return, we will talk about boobs and Monday and how I hope you will all come out to play.
