I really wish Posh and I were able to attend this.

Deep sigh.

Instead of doing dog time, I’ll be judging a high school speech meet which I’m excited about, but sad to miss such an event nonetheless.

Wait a minute, hold the bully stick, you’re doing what?

Oh yes, I’m asked to do all sorts of interesting things based on my reputation for having a very vocal, “helpful” opinion.  Okay, some of the folks in charge, got wind of my B.A. degree in Speech Communications/Theater so I may be pretty qualified.  However, Posh will be home with Daddy and the kids, most likely pouting Mommy’s absence in her crate.

Meanwhile, if you’re able to swing it, and I highly recommend attending as you will be donating one hundred percent of your ticket price to sheltering homeless people and animals.

Also, I might add that with DJ Jake Ruhd spinning tunes, veg food from Killer Chowgirls, and prints from Adam Turman-he did the above poster and I’m a big fan, there is no way this event will suck it.

P.S. if you’d like to skip my ranting and get to the details you can scroll down and find all the pertinent information.  I might now admit the organizers had me at “local beer” and “twenty dollar one-of-a-kind artwork.”

Hello?!?

This event is co-created by a realty, property rental and design/building firm called Metamorphosis, who are, I’m sure kick ass people and Killer Chowgirls catering who I know rock-I’m a wedding videographer sometimes too so I’ve taste-tested their food fare.

I bet you’re now thinking, ‘damn, she get’s around.’

I know, I know…

My assumption that Metamorphosis are awesome is based on the fact that they’re hanging out with really great MN creatives and are organizing something cool that they’re not directly benefitting from.

Dog lovers too?

What more could a girl ask for?

Posh is crossing her paws, and I’m a whirling chanting dirvish praying this is an annual event, because you know next year my big righteous butt will be there come hydrant or hell water!

Darling dogs and bitches get thyself to Shelter Me 2011.
