it's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming baccckk!

  • Dear flisters, I have a problem. You see, I'm going to a Barack Obama rally next Thursday (OMGJIWAPFMAWF), and I'm sort of doing the thing you do before a first date. I don't have anything to wear! Is this skirt too flirty? But jeans might be too casual! What do I say if he asks me to commit? So, here are my questions to you, the ever helpful and far-more-experienced-than-I: have you ever been to a candidate rally before? What does one actually do at these things? Do I need to bring glitter?

  • An age ago, I wrote a small McShep ficlet called Shotgun for [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon's hands festival. Only just now did I think to link it. Woops!

  • Lately, some V. V. AWESOME people have been pulled into Stargate Atlantis. Here and here are some of recs I've put together. SO FAR. On that note, my del.icio.us account is here; as of right now there are only SGA stories, since all of my SPN favorites are in my LJ memories, but, yeah. It's getting there!

  • Back to the Barack, though. Seriously. Should I make a t-shirt that says something embarrassing? "I'VE GOT A CRUSH" or "YOU CAN BE MY HEAD OF STATE", maybe. Or possibly "I ♥ B.O.", because I am a twelve year old. Would Barack dig it?

  • Off to answer comments now, wheee! I heart you all.

Wasn't there that video some girl made about barack obama on youtube where she lipsynced "I've got a crush (on you)" and images of barack flashed across the screen? Or was that with hillary?? hmmm.

OMG YAY! I wanna see Barack Obama. Ever since I read "Dreams of my father" I fell in love with him. I can't wait to vote!

Well, what I'm referencing up there is "I've Got a Crush on Obama" (http://youtube.com/watch?v=wKsoXHYICqU). Have you ever seen the vid? IT'S AWESOME, omg.

YES! That's the one I was talking about..

Bring the glitter. If anyone asks, tell them you're the representative of the F.A.O.M.C. (that is, Fairys And Other Magical Creatures) here to negotiate with the "BO" a plan of action towards the illegality of pixie dust if he is elected.

Or you could wear a Lincoln beard and hat. I think that would just be awesome.

But don't put PETA on a shirt unless you want to scare him away, yaknow?

I like the "I ♥ BO" idea. :]

HAHAHAHAH. I think that once I pop my rally-going cherry, that's going to my next move. With bells on.

If you're lucky maybe he'll hit you in the face like he did me. *starry-eyed sigh*

Just wear whatever's comfortable! No protocol for these things, dude. :)

He hit you in the face, what? I am so jealous. DID HE APOLOGIZE? :O

[identity profile] longleggedgit.livejournal.com 2007-09-22 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
HE DID. HE LOOKED ME RIGHT IN THE EYES AND SAID "I'M SORRY." IT TOOK ME DAYS BEFORE I COULD MAKE MYSELF SHOWER.

OH MY GOD HE LOOKED YOU IN THE EYES! *swoon* How did you not FAINT?

He's so dreamy. ♥

[identity profile] longleggedgit.livejournal.com 2007-09-22 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I PRACTICALLY DID. Yeah. Um. He shook my hand, hit me in the face, looked me in the eyes and talked to me. I can die any day now and my life will be complete. *____*

He's dreamier than anything.

I've never been to a rally. Sounds like it would be fun, even though I've about had it with politicians in general.

Lol, the shirt idea sounds great. Has it been done before, I wonder? If it is has, maybe you can search the 'net and see if there's been any record of his reaction to it.

Yeah, I'm a spoilsport, I know.

I'd say make and wear the shirt, but wear another shirt over it. If you think it would be received well enough, then take off the second shirt and party hearty. =)

Hahaha, I'm not actually that worried about what he'll think, to be honest. Lord knows the rally's gonna be big enough that I'll probably only get to see him as a charismatic dot on the horizon, so it's not like he's going to stop in the middle of his speech and point at me: "YOU THERE. I FIND THAT OFFENSIVE."

Hmmm dun't even know what a rally is, to me it smacks of lots of people banging about in old cars.

You could dress up as an old banger and try to race others and hurl abuse at them when they don't play along.

I need more ibuprofen...:0P

O_O I see how it is. THROWING ME OVER for the sexy politician. *weeps quietly*

Wear an 'I've got a crush on Obama' t-shirt. There is no other solution.

I AM DOING THIS IN YOUR NAME, ROBIN. Come on, like you wouldn't molest Barack given the chance. PSH, I know you.
