Rip this...

It all started with an idea (not mine, but here's a hint, it may or may not involve other members of our family) to take over the blog on Oct. 16th. Sounds simple. Um...no.

My timeline for the past 24 hours is not pretty. It involves spending all yesterday at my mom and dad's house, having all day turn to all night (slumber party!), loading something called "The Rippr" onto my computer (and praying it wasn't a virus), staying up till 3 in the morning, swearing...a lot (this is a freaking !?*$-show, a HUGE cluster-$!*%), waking up at 6 in the morning in the same clothes from yesterday and still being nowhere close to finished.

But we are not quitters. Come hell or high water the surprise for Lisa will air on the 16th. And for the record, this was not my idea. But, I will admit, it's a good one.

Stay tuned...

I HATE YOU. You and your stupid little sleepovers and your secrets. It is SO not fair to gang up on me. I'm the oldest ROECKER SISTER FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DOESN'T THAT MEAN ANYTHING ANYMORE!?!

You guys have gone AWOL. I knew eventually you'd revolt, but this hurts.

WTF ARE YOU DOING!?! Come on! Just give me a hint! You know I'm googling the Rippr right now, don't you? I will figure this out.

Rest in the fact, Lisa, that you are not the only one on the outside. We're all here with you. Anxiously awaiting the surprise...

Sadly, being the oldest doesn't count for much these days. Wish it did. It'd be nice to have some sway with my sis.

Also, as much as it pains me to admit this, your highlights look really good in this picture.

I still hate you though.

Are you kidding? When I saw the pic, I thought I needed to call for an appointment!

Update: At 2:30 today, we completed mission hijack blog. Let's hope everyone else thinks it's as hilarious as we do. We shall see...

PS: I totally changed the name of "The Rippr." I know you Google ninja. I figured I needed to protect the identity of my top secret ripping program. You're welcome top secret ripping program, you're welcome.

Katie Anderson said...

What the heck does a "ripping" program even do? I have googled it too! This is too much fun!!!

Carrie Harris said...

Can't wait to see what the surprise is. Seriously.

And how is it that when I lived in Cleveland, I never met all the cool authors? And now that I'm gone, I meet you, Internetly speaking? Because really? That sucks.

Your arms are very skinny so it makes me hate you a little.

Don't call this a comeback

So it’s been a minute. Or 10. Or truthfully more like 2,102,400. At least we think that’s how many minutes there are in 3 years, but let...
