I’m not to great when it comes to recapping things so I thought I would just make you a video to watch!
Here is a recap of my trip to Philadelphia as it was happening. I’m officially 25.
I hope you enjoyed it!

Bravo A List Awards in New York City
On Wednesday I had the pleasure of attending the Bravo A-List Awards in New York City. I won tickets through Bravo’s website and I was pretty excited. It was also fun because Kasey and I’s friend Melissa ha also entered and won. So we all got to spend a day in the city together.
Highlights:
- Meeting Diana, Chloe and Daniel Franco from Season 2 Project Runway. My favorite season ever. My favorite person from season 2 was Santino, but he wasn’t there. It’s sort of wrong that I enjoyed getting my picture with these three because I used to find it hilarious when Santino would rag on them.
- Kathy was hilarious, again and she made the whole thing very enjoyable.
- Margaret Cho making a surprise appearance as an announcer and being very funny and also making some political statements that I enjoyed.
- Some confused gay in the women’s room who had clearly followed the wrong signs repeating “I’m a girl, I’m a girl, I’m a girl” while using one of the stalls. A shocked looking older women turned to me as I was drying of my hands and said, “Did you see that?” Uhh…yes.
- Getting to see my friend Melissa get pictures with all her favorite people from Top Chef.
- Kasey and Melissa getting to take a Debbie Downer picture with Rachel Dratch.
- Seeing a man in the row behind us eating a dish of Chinese food with chopsticks.
- Actually being able to say I have attended an awards show. So cool!
Lowlights:
- Every single item at T.G.I.Fridays where we ate was easily $7 more than where we live. As in $17 for a hamburger. (I know it sucks going to a city and eating at a chain, but we didn’t have time to seek anything out and we thought this would be…cheaper. So wrong.)
- Seeing a gas station charging $4.59 a gallon regular.
- $35 for parking! (You can tell our money sitch when I point out all the prices like an old man.)
- Not getting to meet Kathy Griffin or Nikki Blonsky
- Getting home at 4:00 a.m. and having to get up the next morning for work.

Kathy Griffin Show in Atlantic City
Yes! I saw Kathy Griffin at the Borgata in Atlantic City on Saturday. She was AMAZING! Now because I care about you and I’m a little obsessed I made a bunch of videos for you*. Yay!
We took off around 2:00 pm and it was POURING. We headed into Philadelphia for lunch.
Us leaving Philadelphia heading to Atlantic City. I rant a little about a girl who hits on Kasey.
SIDE NOTE: In Philadelphia at the convention center there was some sort of Trans Convention for people who are transsexual or transgendered. It was AWESOME. For a few moments I was surrounded by a bunch of hot trans people. I have a serious thing for people who are trans so this was a little heavenish for me. Thank you Philadelphia! You seemed more like New York for a moment there.
We made it to Atlantic City! There was insane traffic for some reason and I am super pumped about the show. Woo!
I don’t know if you can understand me, but I am saying, “This is Tom from the Kathy Griffin show. Do you see him? We’re so not allowed to have this camera. Okay, turn it off.” They were actually taking camera’s from people and we still made this silly video just because I was so excited to see Tom from My Life on the D List. It was great. We also made an illegal video during the show. It’s very poor quality of her talking about the FLDS cult.
Her show was so funny, you guys. I was worried I would be amused, but not laughing to much because I watch her stuff so much. She did all new material and it was great. She even talked a little about her gig hosting the Bravo A-List Awards and that totally thrilled me because Kasey and I are going to see that show in New York City on Wednesday. We’re part of the “casted audience”. Fun, right?
This is after the show it was 1:00 am and we had to drive three hours home. It actually must have been later than that because we didn’t get home until 4:45 am. It wasn’t actually as bad as it sounds and the show was so totally worth it. I’m so glad we stretched our money to be able to afford it. We have to go see her act again sometime.
Okay! So that is our trip and I hope you enjoyed all the movies we made for you. I would have edited them all into one long movie for you if I knew how to do shit like that.
*For those of you who don’t have time or don’t care to watch the videos below them I will say what was going on. Likewise if you watch the movies you can pretty much ignore the text if you watch the videos.

My Weekend: In Video Form
Because I have them and I don’t feel like typing very much.
Kasey and I went to Philadelphia with my cousin on Saturday to the Mutter Museum. It freaked my freak.
On Sunday Kasey and I went to Atlantic City spur of the moment just for the heck of it. I made some movies of such.
As an added bonus here are two videos of my beloved bunny Penelope playing with balloons.
I hope you enjoyed them!
