Blogentines Day Celebration!

What a difference a year makes! Less than twelve months ago Tomblogger Womannis and I were at each others' throats. The 49th Ward was in the midst of a hotly contested campaign for alderman. Tomblogger was volunteering for the campaign of James Ginderske (a "man" who used to be a friend of mine until he failed to make me his campaign director). I was knocking all the candidates and being coy about who I was going to support. Womannis and I were busy flinging virtual poo at one another. He was calling me a drunk and insinuating that I harbor latent homosexual longings for the handsome, macho, hairy chested James Ginderske. I was striking back by doing everything I could to sabotage the Ginderske campaign while calling their campaign headquarters to demand they reign in Womannis. It was awful. If a certain 49th Ward voter thinks she has it bad then she aint seen nothing.

But that was last year and this is this year. The campaign is over. Womannis and I both got stuck supporting Don Gordon even though we had been trashing his daughter at one point. Gordon lost the election but that doesn't matter because Womannis and I are now the best of friends. The two BFF's are going to have a party to celebrate our anniversary.

It hasn't been a whole year for us but we just couldn't wait. Thursday, February 14 is the day that the world celebrates as Valentines Day except we in Rogers Park who celebrate Blogentines Day. Could there be a better day for a celebration of our friendship? Why wait a couple more weeks until the actual anniversary of the beginning of our friendship? Besides, Womannis is worried that our rival blogger and archenemy, Tomblogger Eastgard, and his Revolutionary Democrat Communist Party is going to take over Rogers Park and send us to separate labor camps.

Our Blogentines Day celebration will commence at 9:00 pm at the Oasis and you are invited. Jostle_Lynn is making a special anniversary cake. Shrill Morton has promised a special slide show of photographs commemorating our friendship. He better not slip in any of his notorious pictures of piss and poo in the Morse Avenue El Station. Don't miss the chance to buy me and Tomblogger drinks, tell us how much our blogs do for the neighborhood and be bathed in the glow of our happiness. If you're going to attend put your name in the comments section. Tomblogger and I want a count of how many people are coming so we know how many drinks we're going to have purchased for us. We want to pace ourselves.
