UPDATE: Check out Back Fence PDX for three of last night’s stories. GO! Click HERE.
So here it is. Before it’s even up on the Back Fence page. It’s here.
All I can say is the evening was amazing. AMAZING. After every story I just sat in my chair, my cheeks hurting from smiling and my eyes filled with tears and then I’d think, OH! I have to get up there and say something. And all I wanted to say, “Wasn’t that GREAT?!? And WOW! And GEEZ!” I’m still stunned at how amazing it was.
I flipcameraed three stories because that’s all the camera had memory for, but we have the whole damn thing recorded on a fancy camera and that will be available to me at some other point in the future. I also have the audio recording, but you can’t see swimsuits on that. SWIMSUITS!
Okay, you’re done reading about me. Here’s Miss Kiala Krazybee.

go kiala! w00t w00t!!!11!!!1 talk about a walk on the wild side…
i was SOOOOOO expecting the story to go “there” once you went swimming. not that i’ve ever done any coke myself, but it always makes me horny as hell when i do, so i thought you might be the same as the fictional version of me that has done coke.

Are you two long lost sisters or something? The inflections in your voice and your…what do you call it…patter(?) are exactly the same. Ha! Wish I could have seen the whole show. Looked like you had a blast. Congrats!

Three reasons to attend Beer and Blog: Vidoop, Vidoop, and, well, Vidoop » Silicon Florist

Oh Ken, thank you! It is so hard to see myself on video and from that angle.
Actually, Melissa I think you are the only person who has ever video’d me from a downward angle that didn’t make me look tremendously LARGE.
THANK YOU.

I am so pissed. I was/am to sick to be in public. I want to buy a VCD of the show, dammit!

So nice to meet you last night, Melissa! The event was lovely – you and Frayn did a fantastic job.
I’d so love to help during the next event, but I’d be hopeless at the gate given my horrendous math skills, and my tippyoverish tendencies require me to keep away from elevated surfaces like stages. But if you can think of anything a 5-year-old might be able to do, just let me know!

YAY!!!!
I’m so glad things went well!
Melissa you are awesome for putting this video up and for all the hard work you did to make the whole things go off so well.
It sounded like everyone was having a great time.
I’m so sad I wasn’t there.

You know Mrs. Hesselbee is constantly surprising me. What a great story. Sometimes the stories where “nothing happened” are the most interesting stories of all.
And ML, you rock for putting on an event like this! I know it’s a lot of work… congrats on your success. And thanks for the video of my sis. I’m sure my cubie-mates are wondering why I was laughing so loud.

Thank you, everyone. It was a great evening. Kiala is my hero all the time. I wear a bracelet that says WWKKD. I do, really.
Okay, I’m on the post-event come down and I have no funny. Just thank you.

Fuck yeah! That was great. I am so bummed that I had mama duties all night. I would have much rather have been there. I can’t wait to see the rest of it.
