Grace Davis is Gracing Me With Her Presence Tonight, 10 PM EST

It’s a big, big day, SecondHanders. Tonight I do the first bit of filming for next week’s Birthday Dares Spectacular. My birthday is a week from tomorrow and I have a lot of filming to do in the next 4 or 5 days. Even more editing.

First video will go live on Monday. Then there’ll be one video a day, with the big finale on Friday…my 43rd birthday. Yeah, I’ll have to change my blog bio. *sigh* And 42 is such a great number.

I’m just praying that a few calls I have out there for some of the dares come through in time. If not, there are alternate dares, backup alternate dares, BACKUP backup alternates, all of them prioritized in a top-secret list I have on my iPhone…which does have a passcode protection on it, so if you’re thinking of hijacking my phone to try to sneak a peak, fugettabout it.

The other BIG thing I have tonight is my show. It’s really good to be back with SecondHand Radio. I had a blast last week with Danielle from Knotty Yarn, and if you haven’t yet listened to it, no worries. There’s always iTunes.

Tonight? Another big guest. Not big PHYSICALLY, mind you, but big in STATURE. It’s Grace Davis. My newly-discovered sister. You can read all about my experience with Grace at BlogHer here.

Grace and I hit it off like gangbusters. Well, to be clear, I don’t technically know any gangbusters, but I hear they all get along incredibly well. We spent a couple of hours together in Chicago and, for two people who just met, it was like we’d known each other our whole lives. Nearly instantly. That’s pretty rare. Yet another reason why I love BlogHer. These sorts of connections tend to happen during those magical 48+ hours.

She’s a dynamic force, Grace. I dig her immensely and yet, somehow, we haven’t spoken on the phone since Chicago. That shall be remedied this evening. Charming, witty, down-to-earth, smart as hell…yeah.

And she’s married. *sigh*

I can’t wait for tonight’s show. I hope you’ll be there. You should probably GO HERE and check out the info page for SecondHand Radio. Sign up at Talkshoe. Download the Talkshoe client (my favorite way to enjoy the live chatroom).

Yes, there’s a live chatroom. It’s damn fun, mostly because there are people like YOU hanging around in there during the show.

Yes, there’s a call-in number, which YOU are welcome to use at any time to call in and talk to Grace and I.

Yes, I want you to be there, along with everyone in your contact list. Lofty aspirations, perhaps, but I think it’s been established that I have lots of those.
