Back off, bitches

in Stalking Amy Sedaris

This weekend I met my idol Amy Sedaris and we totally had a connection.  Click to here to see the love letter I gave her:

 Check out Mama Drama to see the emotional response I got from Amy as she received the letter (plus drunken photos of bloggers, as requested) today.

PS.  Many people at the Blogher convention were under the impression that I’m paid by the Houston Chronicle for my Mama Drama blog.  I just wanted to set the record straight…I am not paid for blogging.  I do it because I have a passion for writing.  One that expresses itself in photos of bloated Princess Bride cast members and stories about peeing through shoe boxes.

Hell, if I knew that all one needed to get a leg up was a pair of Hello Kitty panties, I would’ve done the same thing with my Batsumaru jock strap. Good job stalking — we’re proud of you! :)

Glad you had a good time!

3 dodo July 30, 2007 at 1:03 pm

is she drooling on your neck right now??? because that letter woul dhave done it for me!

OH hey, you’re back! I was getting a bit tired of House’s sidekick look alike!

It’s people like you that make people like sweet Amy nervous about leaving her house. Leave her alone you bitch! She has been my best friend for years. And stay away from Wil Wheaton too, I’ve decided that he is my friend.

5 Chase July 30, 2007 at 2:02 pm

Great. Now I’m going to have to beat up Amy Sedaris.

SEE WHAT YOU DO TO ME, JENNNNNNNNY!?!?!?!

6 Kyla July 30, 2007 at 2:54 pm

Jenny! I can’t enlarge it. It just jumps me over to Mama Drama (to see myself all hot and drunk) for some reason. Hmmm. I must read the letter. ;)

7 chirky July 30, 2007 at 2:58 pm

OMG, Kyla, I’m glad it wasn’t just me. Jenny: FIX IT.

Love forever, or at least for a while,
Chirky

You do that blog for FREE!?!?!

Dude, you are so ruining the bar for the rest of us! LOL

If only I had the luxury to simply love my craft but nooooo it has to buy the bread for my hubbard “cubbard.” ;)

Can’t see letter but will checkout your other FREE blog.

I guess if I ever make it to BlogHer I can go hang out with the sell outs. :)

P.S. Cool you got to meet Amy Sedaris.

P.P.S. You know I am only yanking your chain here, right? :)

My rabbits died of a heatstroke. Fucking West Texas!!! I’m glad to hear you had such an exciting and stalkerific weekend. Your love letter is hysterical. Now, I’m going to have to begin writing my love letter to you!

10 Houston July 30, 2007 at 3:47 pm

Glad I followed the link.

Little shoe boxes filled with urine. Priceless.

11 Jenny July 30, 2007 at 3:57 pm

Her brother is hilarious! I love his books!

12 Jenny the bloggess July 30, 2007 at 4:13 pm

I have no idea what’s up with the thumbnail but I just added a link to it right above the image.

God, I’m crap at this.

13 melissa July 30, 2007 at 5:13 pm

I’m going to have to marry you now.

14 Jen from Boston July 30, 2007 at 5:30 pm

That letter is perfection. I love the offer for a discount at your Dad’s taxidermy services.
If that doesn’t seal the deal, nothing will.

Am bummed we kept being ships that passed in the night – but hey, it was nice meeting you!

15 Amber July 30, 2007 at 5:36 pm

I dreamed you had Amy’s love child.

It must be a sign.

Seriously though, I was sad we didn’t hookup until the end of the conference. You were a kick in the pants! Though I won’t tell you where….

16 Biddy July 30, 2007 at 5:43 pm

jenny…i love you

will you be my girlfriend? that letter just pretty much sent my heart a flutter

oh and p.s. i’m thinking Road Trip To H-Town in about 2 weeks. We should totally get drunk and make out…er…i mean…have a quiet lunch and talk about daisies and diaper rash

17 LawyerMama July 30, 2007 at 6:05 pm

Jenny – I heart you even more now. I’ll be stalking you!

18 PunditMom July 30, 2007 at 7:29 pm

Amy Sedaris is SO going to hook up with you … I know I would! :O

19 Jeff July 30, 2007 at 8:32 pm

You and Amy would make a good couple. You’re both half nuts so together you’d be a total nut. You two should totally co-write a blog together. DID YOU HEAR THAT AMY!!!

20 Kari July 30, 2007 at 8:48 pm

SO much fun meeting ya.

Thanks for the wine and the freaky stories.

21 mommiebear2 July 30, 2007 at 9:16 pm

Heh – all totally good reasons to be bff with ya.

22 AnotherMomfromMamaDrama July 30, 2007 at 10:33 pm

Too much fun. Just way too much fun. Wish I could have gone too. Keep us posted on MamaDramaConQueso, maybe the contractors will be outa here by then….

23 Nicole P. July 30, 2007 at 10:34 pm

Sweet Jesus that letter is fucking great. Glad you had fun in my former hometown!

24 HMFT July 30, 2007 at 11:26 pm

I’m gonna say to you what my husband says to me, on a daily basis.

“You are not right.”

And love you for it, mamacita.

25 Margaret July 31, 2007 at 12:09 am

Will you write me a letter like that?

And what do you see of my aura?

I am so damn jealous. Oh, to be Amy Sedaris.

26 chirky July 31, 2007 at 12:53 am

Your letter is hilarious. If you slipped that note to me, I’d totally be your best friend.

Or at least I’d write back.

27 christine July 31, 2007 at 1:31 pm

just so you know–i am actually ammy sedaris’ biggesst fan and bff. so back off she’s mine.

(just kidding of course. i am SO jealous she was at blogher and i was at home being mopey.

28 Kyla July 31, 2007 at 1:51 pm

The letter was AWESOME! She has to love you now. HAS TO.

29 Gina July 31, 2007 at 3:02 pm

I think I like number ten the best.

30 CPA Mom and Soccer Mom Angela July 31, 2007 at 3:44 pm

I STILL cannot read the letter. The link that comes up is too small too. And I’m still PISSED at myself for not finding you at BlogHer. PISSED. Urgh!

31 Jenny the bloggess July 31, 2007 at 3:50 pm

It’s a bit complicated but you hit the link, then hover your mouse over the letter, then an icon pops up at the bottom of the page and you click it and THEN you can see it enlarged.

I need to find someone who knows Wordpress to tell me how to avoid all this hassle.

32 Momish July 31, 2007 at 7:29 pm

I can’t blame you one bit there! Stalkers unite!

33 Lady M July 31, 2007 at 7:31 pm

Jenny – I had such a fabulous time meeting you. A true friend! Well, second best friend, after Amy S.

About the chocolate – did you see what the Canadian ladies said? They’re going to mail us chocolate, so that we can practice. That’s abooot as perfect as it gets. ;)

34 wordgirl July 31, 2007 at 11:32 pm

OMG! You crack me up! Glad to know that there was a funny blogger from the Lone Star State to represent the rest of us at Blogher.

35 Midlife Mommy August 2, 2007 at 1:48 am

No waaaayyy. you met Amy? What about David? Oh I am so , so , so.. oh never mind.
I’ve gotta go read mamadrama now.

36 Jenn August 2, 2007 at 1:49 am

LOVED meeting you. I have to send you that awesome picture I have of you in that Amy session.

Family in Houston, so I will email you when I go again. Maybe a post BlogHer recap nightcap kind of get together thingie. Or whatever. :-)
