Mayfair May Fair is almost HERE!!


So awesome that I just figured out that the auto-post thing on Google wasn't working. I can't dare entertain the thought that I somehow may have screwed up...me??? NEVER!! I think that the peeps at Google and Blogger were too busy buying up Facebook stock today personally. Stupid jerks. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Here's what was supposed to have posted hours ago during prime web surfing time (i.e. during work hours).

IT'S TOMORROW!! YAY! FINALLY HERE!!!

Are you excited? As if you can't tell based on my all CAPS response, I'm as stoked as a chimney.

Here's the list of going's on again if you need it. I know you already have it memorized but it's for "the others" who haven't (who ARE you people?).

SPARTANS!! I mean...MAYFAIRIANS!!!
