Just The TWO Of Us, Building Castles In The Sky.....

                  "I'm chuckin' my DEUCES up... I'm moving on to something better, better, better..." , "Now it takes TWO when it used to take one...", "I don't know much about algebra, but I know that one plus one equals TWO...". Well, if you can't take a hint while I'm passive aggressively (and creatively, if I don't say so myself!) booty poppin' it in your face with this eclectic mix of jams then... well, then I can't help you. But to all the rest of you, no, that wasn't just another example of the Youtube video suggestion sidebar gone wrong, it was the very stoked announcement of RYPE event numero dos! We're back and we're better than ever! Put your headphones on, turn your car speakers all the way up,  keep on turning that volume knob until the bitch won't turn no mo', but find a way to get those hips swaying, those limbs shakin', that head bangin' and yo' bad self on over for RYPE night squared! Baby get it on, get it on, because Saturday the 17th is the night when TWO become ONE (what we're really trying to say is, BRING A FRIEND!)

RYPE For The Pickin'

          That awkward moment when you fall asleep on a Thursday and wake up to find that it's already Monday (followed immediately by that even more awkward moment when you want to stab (lightly stab, nothing fatal so calm down, y'all) everyone you here start a sentence with, "That awkward moment when...." and then proceed to do just that. Whoops.). And no, I'm not referring to any sort of narcoleptic and/or comatose state here, I'm referring to the absolute dream-like mindset RYPE has been living in this past weekend (with only the occasional tremor of a nightmare. Who knew double-sided tape wouldn't hold a nearly 20 pound canvas?!?? I mean c'mon here, people, it's the 21st century.... duh). Watching my sister soak in those first rays of light you get when something you've really put your heart and soul into comes to fruition was like nothing I've ever seen, the glow on that girl was juicier than a rype July day! RYPE is the perfect example of what you get when putting genuine hard work, time and dedication into something you love and Rachel is the guru of all that old fashioned goodness. So of course like any morbid person, with the birth of RYPE.events happening all around me I couldn't help but think about all the near deaths Rachel Rype has also bore witness too. Near death by hot water heater was not the only time this gem of a sister has saved my ass with her charms and strong will, I can't forget the time I almost died of boredom and she decided we should move to California (and did I mention two weeks later we did? Just call her a Cheetah Gurl, cuz this bitch wastes no time, fast and fierce, brrrr.). Or the time I almost died of embarrassment when I was informed by our mother that I did not, in fact, need any sort of brassiere yet, (or little did I know, ever) but you can't be a 13 year old stuffing your bra if you don't even own one so the dear lent out one of hers. She didn't even complain when I borrowed her socks as stuffing on top of that for maximum realistic affect, a true life saver. Oh, and we can't forget the time of near death by self impalement, even at six she could entice the scissors right out of my stubborn four year olds fingers, almost definitely saving me an eye, she could not, however, save the haircut. 'Nuff said. This bitch has been saving me from near death experiences and guiding me into new births for the last 21 years, so thank you, Mama Rype for the cat's outlook on life and I could not be more excited to be able to watch you start a couple new ones of your own. Ok, ok now that was touching, I know, but about this epic dream....
