Writer Gold: Sorry I’m late. My hair just would not cooperate this
morning. I believe there’s enough static
electricity running through me right now that if someone’s heart stopped I
could shock them back to life.
Writer Blue: Why do you even bother with your
hair…I mean it’s just us.
Writer Gold: I want to look good for you too.
Writer Red: Like we even notice.
Writer Black: Well I do notice, and I think your
hair looks perfectly fine.
Writer Blue: I think it looks fine as well
Writer Red:
You both are kiss-asses!
Writer Gold: Thank you, ladies…and bite me Red!
Writer Red:
And have you shock me? No thanks!
Writer Gold: Who wants to discuss their
chapters first?
Writer Black: Before we get into that I was
hoping we could first talk about the Blog
Blitz.
Writer Blue: Blog what?
Writer Black: Blitz…like in basketball.
Writer Gold: I think you mean football
Writer Red:
No, what she really means is the state she ends up after bar-hopping every
Friday night.
Writer Black: Your husband doesn’t seem to mind.
Writer Red: As if.
Writer Blue: I’m still confused.
Writer Red: That’s right… you were in Florida last
week and probably didn’t see DL’s post.
Writer Blue: What’s he up to now?
Writer Black: We’re
gonna be playing tag.
Writer Blue: Huh?
Writer Red: It’s so cool! DL calls it a Blog
Blitz. First you sign up to be a
Blitz team member on DL’s blog, then at random times he will email us a target and
a date.
Writer Black:
Then on that date we all bombard the unsuspecting blogger with comments.
Writer Gold: If he gets a lot of people to
participate we might be talking 100, 200, who knows how many comments all at
once.
Writer Blue: Oh, that’s so cool.
Writer Red: I know, right? As of this morning he already had 137 people
signed up. I posted about it on my blog this morning, so hopefully that'll bring in a few more.
Writer Blue: So how is the lucky recipient going to
be chosen?
Writer Gold: At first DL is going to choose,
but then after a while he will start accepting recommendations.
Writer Blue: Can anyone be blitzed?
Writer Red: You have to be a fellow Blitz Team
member. I emailed DL and asked him how
long he was going to keep the list open and he said there wasn’t going to be an
expiration date on it.
Writer Black: Is
anyone else cold? If feels especially
chilly in here today.
Writer Gold: Ummmmmm…maybe it’s because you
chose a blouse that shows an especially large amount of cleavage today.
Writer Black:
It’s my feet that are cold…smart aleck.
Writer Red: They say cold air sinks. Probably slipped right by those Ta Ta's and
settled into your shoes.
Writer Blue: *chokes
while sipping her coffee*
Writer Black:
Jealous much?
Writer Blue: When will the blog blitzing begin? Wow, try to say that three times fast.
Writer Gold: DL didn’t say, but I don’t
imagine he’ll make us wait too long.
Writer Red: Can you imagine what it would be like
to get deluged with so many comments?
Writer Black: I'd
be like Alex Cavanaugh.
Ohmigosh that was hilarious!!! Loved it!

ReplyDeleteThis was great fun to read. I felt like I was right there eavesdropping.

ReplyDeleteYou do like your colors, lol! This made me laugh Don, thank you for that!

ReplyDeleteThis will be an awesome blitz! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteKeeping a close eye on my email these days...looking forward to rapidly growing blog blitz~
ReplyDeleteI had fun reading this. Ever thought of writing scripts for TV movies? :)
ReplyDeleteWhy do I get the feeling you've listened to a lot of female conversations?
ReplyDeleteLOL! I wouldn't know what to do with that many comments. I'm still recovering from Monday's blogfest.
