So if you haven’t read in today’s post, just before midnight last night in a very exciting twitter-fest I broke not only 10,000 views, but my busiest day ever! Possibly thanks in part to my (finally!) non-angsty Scott Pilgrim post on mindfulness, stupidity, and forgiveness. Pretty exciting day all around.

Right, so point being, as explained in today’s post, this whole 10,000 thing is kinda a big deal. So I’m throwing a PARTY!

June 14th
6pm-11pm

at Endeavor Arts
Suite 200, 1209 First Street SW Calgary
(Located above Forbidden Clothing
entrance between Forbidden & Giuseppe’s Market.)

If you’re reading this, you’re invited! I’d really like to see all of you people who have been a part of this community, these conversations, and yes, these statistics, come out to celebrate.

There is naturally no charge for this event (’cause it’s a party!), but I will be accepting contributions to help me cover costs (come on, I’m a WRITER, you think I can afford to throw a party for ten thousand people?) and I’ll be taking some of those contributions and donating them to Acadia Place. So, karma points all around! A chance to have a kick ass party, and fund a wonderful Calgary Homeless Foundation project I really believe in.

So if you think you’ll come, tweet (#10kparty), contact me, or comment below (if it’s your first time commenting it will be held for moderation), just so I have clue what I’m getting into here.

And if you think you can help with snackies or implementing some of the fun projects I’ve got brewing for the event let me know. ‘Cause holy crap! what have a got myself into!

Wahoo!OhshitOhshitOhshit!

Okay, some idea of what’s going to happen at this party is starting to gel. Check out the lovely poster I put together: http://twitpic.com/58k1n7 Or go to Endeavor’s facebook event page – it’s got a good write up of what’s going down! (it’s evolving every day!)

There’ll be cool interactive poetry things, random acts of love, and of course, I’m hoping a good measure of utter bloody silliness. I promise you an event like nothing you’ve ever seen!

Woot! Woot!
