I know another one, right? Well it’s just that awesome and now you have even more chances to win a copy of your own and trust me you want one.

We’ve all had our moments where we have to wake up and check our outbox to see what exactly happened last night. I may or may not have had one of those nights after my whirlwind 26 hour Vegas trip…

But that is besides the point.

Texts From Last Night is probably one of the best and most hilarious ideas ever. Bored? Bummed? Has it been way too long of a day? Need a pick me up to send a friend? Texts From Last Night: All The Texts No One Remembers Sending will be your best friend. Not to mention when you are spending way too long doing your hair and someone is waiting for and pretty close to leaving without you, this right here can be the perfect coffee table book that distracts them!

If that hasn’t convinced you that this book is awesome here are a few of my favorites from the book that I got to preview:

(510): The party tonight has no theme but I’ve decided to go as a home wrecker.

(410): my mouth tastes like poor choices

(917): I’m once again drinking at eight am on a Sunday in my tutu. This garment is literally my best purchase ever.

(206): how the fuck does easy mac keep making itself at 3am when i’m wasted? what is this phenomenon?

Right? RIGHT?!

Okay, so right about now I’m sure you’re wishing you had a copy of your own and luckily for you, I’m giving a copy away to one reader!

I was recently asked by Arbor Mist and BlogHer to put together a creative party in a box featuring Arbor Mist Sparkling. I chose to create the ultimate night in to help a girlfriend survive a break up. I got the idea for a break up basket from Leah and actually own a copy of the book I featured in it myself (thanks to Jenn).

Basically, break up or not, it’s the most amazing party in a box ever.

So go check it out and see how to win $100 Visa gift cards.

Thanks for all your comments on Disqus yesterday and today! I removed it and since I couldn’t just activate threaded comments via Wordpress (not compatible with my theme), I had to install the Wordpress Threaded Comments plugin. So far it seems okay but I hate that I have to enter all of my info when I want to reply to a comment on my own freaking blog!

But I’ll live.

And because New Moon is just weeks away, I’m hosting a Twilight themed giveaway over on my shopping blog.

Go check it out for a chance to win a tee of your choice from Firedaughter Clothing.

Stay fierce.

As you can see there is a little review tab up in my header. Basically when I’m offered cool stuff, I review it and share the love with you guys! I’m currently doing two review programs through BlogHer and wanted to make sure you knew about them because  you can win awesome stuff!

First, I participated in the EA Sports Active 30 Day Challenge. You can read about my trails and tribulations of it kicking my ass. You can also find out how to win one of 5 copies for yourself! And dude, not many people have entered yet so you have a good chance of winning. It ends June 29th so hop to it!

I was also asked to try SmartFood. You can read about it’s yummy deliciousness here and enter to win a $100 Visa giftcard so you can buy me presents… I mean, buy yourself presents. For that one all you have to do is let me know how you spend Girls’ Night In!

There you have it. Two awesome giveaways.

Go enter now at my review blog!

I’m taking part in the 30 Day Challenge from EA Sports Active. I will talking about my experience and progress on my review blog.

Find out more and see how you have 5 chances to win your own copy of EA Sports Active for Wii!

Make sure read how day one of the challenge went and let me know if you would ever consider using a video game as a form of exercise over here!

Sometime last week I got an email asking if I would like to review a copy of Jen Lancaster’s (of Jennsylvania fame) new book, Pretty in Plaid. My response was something like, “Duh, of course.” Then I seen the trailer she made for the book and knew this was probably the best idea ever.

Then I thought about you guys and asked for a second copy to giveaway to my readers. I know many of you are fans of her other books, Bitter is the New Black, Bright Lights, Big Ass and Such a Pretty Fat so I figured it would be a pretty sweet giveaway! Bitter is the New Black is probably one of my favorite books because Jen is just so ridiculously hilarious. Plus, she has two really cute puppies. AND is from Chicago!

Pretty in Plaid is all about Jen’s life through clothing and how your clothing defines you as a person. I just dug into it but I will be sure to write about my thoughts once I wrap it up!

Catch Jen Lancaster on her book tour where she is encouraging everyone to show up in their fiercest 80s garb. See the dates here and make sure you say hi to me at the Chicago stop on May 28th!

So like I said, I’m going to be giving one of copy of Pretty in Plaid away. How do you win, you ask?

Do you feel like how you dress defines who you are? Do you have that staple status piece in your wardrobe that makes you feel just awesome when you rock it?

(Mine is my Marc by Marc Jacobs bag. I adore it! It’s gorgeous and buttery soft and goes with everything. Plus, duh, it’s Marc Jacobs.)

Obviously, I’ve been busy with The Printed Blog. Putting together a newspaper seriously takes time away from personal internet time so both of my blogs and twitter have been seriously lacking.

My own reader?

Forget it.

I’ve seen the dreaded and panic inducing (1000+) for the past couple of weeks. I apologize for not being as visible as I usually  am. You guys know normally, I’m all up in everything and everywhere all the time!

Well now that our first issue has been pieced together, things will get easier. Instead of building from the ground up, we have a foundation and that is a relief. We officially launch The Printed Blog on Tuesday. It’s not even out yet and I’m thinking of ways to improve, make things flow more smoothly and stay more organized next time around.

Next time around if we are well received, that is!

It’s not any surprise to anyone if you follow me on Twitter, exactly how frazzled and nervewracked I’ve been the past few weeks. Working two jobs is exhausting. It wouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t have such long hours at job number one and was working on a deadline on job number two.

It will all pay off though – one way or another.

(Did you see me in The New York Times yesterday? Oh wait…you can’t see me all the way in the back. Trust me though, it is me and I’m not claiming to be some random  stranger. At least the photographer caught me smiling with my eyes, you just can’t see it.)

I’ll write more about The Printed Blog next week. I just wanted to let you all know I’m alive.

(and to tell you to go enter the giveaway for an iPod Touch at TPB’s blog and my giveaway for some fabulous green beauty products over on Oh How Lovely Shops.)

For now, since I’m behind on EVERYTHING, what’s been going on? New job? Buy something pretty? Suggestions on the fancy smancy, well deserved drink I will get once we launch? Feeling sick? Read a good book? Oscar predictions? Thoughts on the new Real World cast? (Yes, that’s how behind I am)

Talk to me! I feel out of the loop!

That’s right. We’re going to be handing stuff out left and right for the next two weeks. It’s going to be good stuff too! Do you really think I’d have my name attached to something boring and useless?

NO.

That’s why Jenn and I arranged some pretty fabulous giveaways.

Today we’re kicking things off with THREE Pro Flickr accounts.

Have a Flickr account but not a Pro one? Here’s your chance! Is yours ending soon? Let’s add more time! Not on Flickr? Well, we’re just going to have to start you off right with a Pro account!

Find out how to enter on our blog here. It ends Wednesday so make sure you don’t miss out.

Then stay tuned for more giveaways later this week. I won’t tell you exactly what they are but I’ll give you a hint: they rhyme with Farbucks and myTunes. Any guesses?

We do things big too so we’re definitely handing out more than a few of each. That means more chances for you to win!

Then next week? Well that one I’m keeping a secret. No hints because it’s just that good. It’s way bigger and way better than gift cards and Flickr accounts though, that’s for sure!

Why are you still here reading this?
