hos before bros

The other night, I made a startling personal discovery.

I like girls.

Actually, Krissa and I discovered that we both like girls. Blogger girls. And so we’ve been scheming. If you’re female, a blogger, and inclined in any way to come sip cosmos and bond with your sisters in the blogosphere, please express interest below. Details will follow.

Pinky swear.

I like girls, but I've been on a mojito kick.

Erin said:

I'm too far away, sadly...in Boston, not NYC - but I like both of you girls!

k said:

oh, jen, silly woman, you can HAVE mojitos.

Twist my alcoholic arm. Love it.

petitchou said:

Oh so jealous! Make a toast to all us distant girls in absentia.

dahl said:

of course i'm in!

mrw said:

Hmm. I spend a good deal of time talking to Krissa and Fish at the BABB. The subsequently decide that they prefer bloggers of the female persuasion. This might give a boy a complex.

No-no .. its ok. They need time to scheme and plot -- plot and scheme. Us guys will meet up somewhere and ... you know ... umm. Guy things will occur. Beer, that we've made ourselves in our basements, and then bodily gases of various densities and timbres will be expelled.

... and no Cosmos will be had ... only home brewed beer .. and perhaps some tequila shots.

There might be a piñata as well.

.. and it will be filled with snub nosed pistols and rottweilers.

Goddamn the whole midwest for seperating California from New York. I'll drink cosmos from home and read about it later.

Bella said:

I'm in Australia and it's 5.18am and I am putting forward a very convincing argument to the man who s currently sharing my bed that he should put me on a plane to New York City as soon as possible. Then maybe we can all get some sleep. It's no secret that I like blogging girls. So far he has said No. I am in no doubt whatsoever that I can change his mind. I think it is just what I need. Yes I do. Pinky swear.

Daniella said:

oh... absolutely! I will be there with bells on... and with belles on (as I mentioned at hiboux-land!)

Michael said:

Girl time? Talkin' trash 'bout men, I 'spect.

Esther said:

My whole life seems to be girl time. But that doesn't mean I'm not interested...looking forward to details.

angelix said:

Let us know when it is, and my Oregon blogging sisters and I will drink cosmos in your honor here, in Pacific Standard Time.

Erin said:

Aw, man...I'm a little too far away, but count me in for virtual cosmos. Cheers! :)

whatever 'virtual' fun i can have with you delicious girls is mine for the taking from my sad little spot of land in los angeles.

i just reserve the right to sip in person (as dahl, miss fish, deb and ari can attest to) when geography allows.

cheers!
(p.s., fish, i think everyday i put on my to-do list "email or IM fish" and, well, you know how that works out for me...)

Anne said:

I'd so be there (mmm cosmos!), only I live, oh, 3000 miles from you kids.

Sad, sad.

moxielady said:

Soooo very jealous. Alas I wont be in your neck of the woods till June 05. But knock a couple back for me.

Jen said:

I too, am far too far away, but will be there in my heart.

:)

Meredith said:

Geography prohibits an ACTUAL date with cosmos and such, but rest assured that if I was anywhere near NYC...well. You know.

Kyren said:

I love cosmos and blogger girls, and I'd certainly be there if it wouldn't involve planes and an ocean at some point. I'm all the way in the Netherlands, Europe...

Jennifer said:

Long-time reader, and fan. Reading this and thinking, "That's one helluva great idea." Wish I could be there to meet some of the many, many amazing women bloggers.

If I show you my ID, can I tip my glass to the computer on the day?

Agategoddess said:

Cosmos and a girls night out. Sounds great to me. Too bad I'm so far away. How about I sip some Parrot Bay and pineapple juice in your honor instead?

mingaling said:

I shall toast ya'll from the sunshine state :)

mickey g said:

oh yeah, i'm way too far away. it's that midwest separation between the right and left coasts...although i've been toying with the idea of visiting east of pennsylvania recently.

have fun and enjoy those cosmos!!!!! =)

julia said:

i like girls. you'll have to make a special new york toast (mojito, please) to julia in california. sad times.

Wicked H said:

Will keep the Cosmos cold here near the Nation's Capital...with you in spirit - count me virtually in.

Steph said:

Ditto Meredith, and I'm the damn Midwest.

stef said:

Also here in L.A.! But moving closer (Austin) around that time. Too bad I can't make it all the way to NYC. Have fun! I'll put a lampshade on my head to salute you at the appropriate moment.

Danna said:

Damn it. I can't go either.
I knew being in ARizona would suck...ok, maybe not-but have fun.

LvL said:

If you're ever in Ohio, the cosmos are on me.

Plish said:

Too many miles between me and New York, too many years between me and twenty-one.

What's a girl to do?

BOB said:

You know it!

Linda said:

Great site. You're fun to read and this night out sounds terrific. I love Chicago, but I'm sorry not to be in NYC for this.

Lyz said:

I love this site and girls who blog. Sadly, I am in Minneapolis...You know, we should do this in all of our respective cities.

Azzy said:

I, like Erin, am too far away. I'm also in Boston, but have an extra drink for all those who wish they could attend but cannot.

akaellen said:

I echo the sentiments of those of us too far away to partake. Darnit!!!

I tip my glass in absentia.

Joelle said:

OMG, you're so right! The blogs I simply must read are all girl-blogs! Count me in - but should we be counterplotting against a possible panty raid?

Julie said:

I just started reading your blog about a week ago, but if you don't mind a stranger joining in on the fun, I'd love to do cosmos with you all. And I'm actually in NYC. well, Brooklyn, but we can't all be Manhattanites. :)

Harmony said:

Celebrating blogging girls with you virtually from Detroit, Michigan :)

Miss Koolaid said:

Girl blogger convention w/ an open bar?
*extends arm in air* ooh ooh, pick me pick me!

Sincerely,
Ms. Koolaid in Ohio (but with vacation time and travel bug)

michael said:

Do you really believe the boy bloggers of New York will leave you alone?

Jager said:

Guess you don't need a bicycle anymore!

daisy said:

My bank manager won't let me go to NYC..... but I'll drink a Cosmo (or something equally classy) and think about you.

t said:

I read both your (Fish and Kriss) blogs and I like blogger girls, cosmos (and mojitos) and the blog culture in general (but have yet to get around to starting my own -- and I'm too busy keeping up with my bloggers!). Do I qualify?

Kim Wells said:

HMMM... I've been looking for another reason to go to NYC (I am dying to go see Wicked). A blogger girlfest MIGHT be the tippy straw that sends me over the edge. Do include me in the "interested possibilities"...even from way down here in Texas....

Caroline said:

Yay! Girlie blogging bonding time! I'm down. But I tend to favor pints over cosmos - but I'd be willing to make an exception for the lovely blogging girls of NYC...

Ari said:

Am I hallucentating or did you ask for "could attended" responses?!! I'm sure you love the midwest and out west gals but I wanna know who we will get an opportunity to booze it up with! Not who we won't :( - that just makes me sadder.

C'mon blogettes - where are the girls that can't say no??

Hilary said:

I'm in California, but I'll be there in spirit. Have a drink for me!

k said:

hahahha ari i'm glad you said it.

Shawn said:

I've never wished more that I had gotten that job with lifetime TV! Alas I'm stuck on the Left Coast - a little too far, but if you are ever in the area, drop me a line and I'll take you out for a night on the town in 'The City'. No, it's not the Big Apple, but San Fran does have it's own appeal.

victoria said:

sounds like fun ... count me in!

Kathryn said:

I'll be the one stumbling around and telling everyone, drunkenly, that I know how to the American Sign Language for "The Greatest Love of All."

Shiz said:

Jealous, jealous, jealous way up here in Canada. Would LOVE to, but gotta hold off on the NYC trips for the next little while, buy food & stuff instead.

PeeKay said:

I agree, the feminine side of the blogosphere is the one to read! Most of my links are to them. I will totally tip my drink from DC.

i'm in, and in nyc (and a new reader to "this fish"). count me in

i'm in - and live in nyc... just found this today and think it's great. girl bloggers of the world - unite, cosmos and all.

Kat F. said:

oh! oh! you don't even know me, but i actually might be in new york at the end of august. is that too late?

Stuart said:

Dear GOD.

The place you hold this event is going to be OVERRUN.

whirlygurly said:

This blogging newbie and new friend o' fish is up for some girl hang time, if you'll have me. :)

Catarina said:

If only I weren't still living in Austin, Texas and broke, I would so be there! It sounds like one really great party. Have a couple of Petron shots for me.

anna said:

In the immortal words of Helen Keller, "Smoke me a kipper, skipper! I'll be back for breakfast."

(In other words, count me in.)

Belle said:

Okay, I'm in. As long as it happens before school resumes - like before Aug 15th.

bikefox said:

IF only closer to Manhattan!
Dang.
Vancouver (Canada) is a bit of a drive.

Chigirl said:

Ok make mine a vodka tonic and is Chicago too far?
