Believe the Hype!
Tuesday, July 8, 2008 I know that you read Susannah over at Petunia Face (if you don't, then get your bony butt over there asap), and you adore her just like I do. She's hilarious and weird and cool and a brilliant writer. It's true, and we all know it.
Jamie over at I Suwannee paired us up for her summer swap, and I'd like to report that Susannah is not only everything mentioned above, but she is also magnificently AWESOME in every single way. I don't mean to make you people jealous, but take a gander:
My heart stopped beating at this point. Yes it did.
When I saw this, my 6 year old asked if I was okay. I think it was because of the delirious squealing and grunting coming from my mouth. It gets better, peeps.
Lots of little tea goodies (I love tea!) and then the coffee cup. Can you see it? Let's zoom in.
Yes, bitches, that's Alex McCord's grimace of suburbia ON A FUCKING COFFEE CUP!
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I kept reaching for the phone to call you, Susannah and start screaming in your ear, but alas, phone numbers were not swapped, which is probably for the best because who wants to listen to a bunch of screaming?
Susannah, thank you so so so much. You are now my Free Pass Five lesbian bonus pick whether you like it or not.
p.s. my kitchen walls look purple. I assure you they are not. Chocolate brown, folks.

OH MY GOSH this is hilarious!!!! Seriously, I can't imagine a better swap partner or box of goodies for you. THAT CUP!!!!
holy eff - that is wonderful. look at that banner!
Um, that is the bestest mug ever! I got a huge box of stuff from my swap partner. I need to put some pics up later when I get home. She even sent stuff for my kids...how sweet is that?
What an awesome gift! You two are a match made in swap heaven!
That is freakin' AWESOME!!!
Totally awesome! When she said that she was waiting for certain things to "arrive" I knew you were getting some good things, but this stuff, I'm blown away! \
I'm totally jealous that you got something from Teapod! I've been meaning to go there, let me know how it is wontcha? (I could just drive over there, but it's ungodly hot, I drive a gas-suck Lincoln Town Car, the smog is already hideous and I think I'd melt before I'd get there.) I'd love to hear what you think, SGM reviews Teapod pls!
The cup, awesome! There should be a matching cup with the dog licking whatsherface's nostril (sorry the heat+ Topamax is giving me awesome aphasia.)
That is completely hilarious... I love that she's funny and smart and weird and cool all at once. The best peeps are, aren't they?!
i agree with lil bee.
and i am too hungover to write a proper comment of my own.
you too need to come up with a comedy routine. i cannot get over what a perfect match you guys are. no two gals on the blogs make me laugh the way you two do. PF- you are an amazing swapper! I have no idea how I missed the whole swap thing but I want in next time!
Great gifts from the "Lucy and Ethel" of the blog world. Matchbook.com couldn't have paired you better!
Aw, shucks, thank you SGM :) I was going to get you the Team Jill fleur de lys shirt from Bravotv.com but I figured you already own it in both black and white, tank and tee. I mean, what do you get for the girl who has everything, including the best sense of humor, wit and charm around? Why a mug with Alex's mug, but of course!
I'm going to have to post about your awesome swap prezzie to me later. You had me at US Weekly...
How PERFECT these gifts were for you! I hope PF posts what you sent because I'm sure it's all awesomeness!
OMG that mug! that book! holy crap that is funny
now that's a good girlfriend! will you ever be able to use that mug... or will you feel compelled to smash it into pieces each time you reach for it? ;)
holy crap. that's just TFC (too f*ing cool). i wanna swap with susannah!!!!
