Cure For The Run

SomaCow Media and Rock For Hunger teamed up to put on an amazing event. A 0.05k. 164 feet. No, I am not making this up. I honestly had to walk further to get to my car. Seriously!

Over $3,000 dollars was raised to help the homeless in Orlando, FL. Next year, let’s double it!

Here are some pictures from the glorious day. These are other pictures can be found on my flickr page.

SweetUp '09

Let’s start from the beginning.. there is twitter. On twitter, you make friends (sometimes), and you meet them at tweetups (twitter meetups). Tweetups are normally held at a restaurant or bar where you can mingle and talk with friends and meet new twitter people. To put a spin on things, this will be a SWEETup. A tweetup, but with LOTS of candy and sweets! Get it? Now, read on.

Next tweetup, SWEETup is on Thursday, September 10th. Winter Park Wedding Chapel is kind enough to host this event at their place!

Thanks to Shaan bringing up candy corn, Justin and Daphne continued talking about candy last week, I have decided since so many people on twitter have to like candy, cake, cupcakes, why not get together and look at it and then eat it!

SUGAR DADDIES: @JeremiahsIce, @SweetByHolly, @KernelEncore

We’d love for EVERYONE to come and bring their favorite treat with them. Since we are not holding this event in a bar or restaurant, sure we’ll get some beverages to have, but not a ton. Think of it as a potluck of sorts. Don’t need to bring anything crazy or $$, just something small for everyone to share.

I’m looking for chocolate, cake, cupcake, lollipop, candy, SWEET places to help out with this event. If you are a company or you know of a company that would be willing to help out please let me know! You can e-mail me at kelly@peglegpug.com or find me on twitter @peglegpug.

To RSVP please visit: SweetUp ’09

GinsbUrgs Take Over Disney

The GinsbUrg sisters (oh and Paul and I) went to Disney.

These pictures and LOTS of others are on flickr.

We started the day at Animal Kingdom. Took our 2 week safari. Ate at The Tusker House (which is AMAZING!) and then went on yet another 2 week journey through Mount Everest. PS – I’m pretty sure we spotted a yeti!

Then we all took on Epcot and did some drinking around the world!

Quarter Life Party!

Check out the pictures section for more on Jeff’s birthday party!

Saturday, July 25, 2009 was named T.U.O.T.Y. by Ross. (‘Tweet Up Of The Year’) Though it really wasn’t a tweet up per se, more of a group of friends, that just happened to be some people we’ve met off of twitter, that came by to celebrate Jeff’s birthday.

Jeff is now 25 and he got to bring in this new age with some really great friends.

Everyone started rolling in around 1. We ate some food, drank some beer, and played some Rock Band. Oh and Jenn, Daphne and I were killed in Flip Cup on the first round. Second round, not so much. We beat them so bad! First flip for each of us.

After lunch, everyone sang Happy Birthday and then we all dug into the wonderful red velvet cake that Pam made and also the cheeseburger cupcakes that Daphne brought with her! Both were a very special treat!

We all watched the kids play some video games while Jeff and Ross tried to beat them at Mario Kart and watched a movie, then Jeff started getting antsy for dinner. He, of course, wanted steak! Natalie went to the store and bought ALL of us steaks! Massive steaks!

Then it was time for MORE dessert. Thanks to Tommy and Ashley for supplying Jeremiah’s Italian Ice!! It was a great ending to a great day. Until Ross broke a chair…..

Thanks to EVERYONE that came out: Ross, Natalie and kids (Timmy, Ray & William), Geoff, Jen, Rowan, Pam, Christine, Tommy, Justin, Jenn, Daphne, Etan, Kyle, Autumn, Dan and kids, T, Amanda & Heather.

And a very special thank you to my mom for helping me out all week long and my dad for helping out the weekend before in the yard and also when he came on Friday!

Jeff had a WONDERFUL birthday and hope to do it again next year!

There are a LOT more pictures, so be sure to check them out – never know if I got a picture of you!

1 day to go!

Jeff’s birthday is on Saturday. And we are having people over to the house, FINALLY! So this will be doubling as our house warming party.

Here’s what I have left to do before people show up on Saturday at 1:
17 loads of laundry - DONE
Clean the house from TOP to bottom – DONE
Get more pictures hung up – a little more to go
Clean off the memory cards for all the cameras because I will be taking a CRAP ton of pictures – clean cards a go!
Give the cat a tranquilizer so she doesn’t freak out when people show (ok I won’t be doing that.)
Figure out how many people are coming (so RSVP people!!) – have a general idea
Find recipes that are easy enough to make – making way on the food
Grocery shop (after people RSVP, see how this works out..) – doing that in about a hour..
Wrap Jeff’s gifts – soon!
Get other shopping done – DONE

All of this while running day-to-day life, ie. working and trying to find more work.

Oh and I MUST get my car aligned this week as well. Sigh. – Taking car today!!!!

Get Animated!

MOSI Tampa opened up a new exhibit on July 10, 2009. It’s by Cartoon Network and most of the CN characters are there! This exhibit is included in your MOSI admission.

You can learn how animation is done, see cel animation, see hand-drawn art from Hanna-Barbera, and also be a part of a Bullet Time effect aka the “Matrix Effect”.

You’ll learn what storyboards are for and help put them in order from start to finish.

There are LOTS of other hands-on exhibits to check out and see exactly how the animations start and how they end up in their finally form on Cartoon Network.

All of these pictures and others from the exhibits are on flickr.

Sporadic Shindig

Saturday rolled around and we decided that we needed to go across town and get some gifts. Kernel Encore was the first stop, then Total Wine, the Sam Flax and then the party started… Mellow Mushroom!

I put out an all call and we had quite a nice turn out. Though I am NOT calling this a tweetup. Because 98% of the people there I’ve seen at LEAST twice before, if not more. @Shaanx, @ValerieWare, @Kfreshness, @Schuylerza (aka Baby Shaanx), @SomaCow, @JamieExp, @SirKyle, @IAmGonzilla, @Evanzan, @Dsashin, @Etanowitz, @Elilicious, @Bananakin

And afterwards.. we went over to Justin and Jenn’s and had a wonderful evening with them and Mickey and Jamie. (As you can see from the video.) Pictures and video below, along with the rest of the pictures on flickr.
