Now the main event of the party was supposed to be a grudge match between SLebrity Willow Caldera and myself. The match was conceived long ago as we challenged each other for the right to ogle Jerremy's nipples. (We really didn't need to try that hard - the man takes off his shirt at every opportunity.) In any case, since that time I have obtained (almost) exclusive access to Jerremy's nipples by virtue of being his fiancée. But we decided to keep the match for fun and challenged each other for a blurb on the other's blog.
The April Blogger party was the setting for the match. Long story short, despite my fervent attempts and almost breaking a nail pounding at my keyboard, Willow won 3 out of the 4 matches and was declared the victor. The baby I wore to gain crowd sympathy was no help at all and has been grounded until his 2nd birthday. Just wait until I find out who his parents are.

Me having some luck in the ring as Jerremy (who came to the party as a bear) acts as referee.

This is a picture of Willow gaining the upper hand and showing no sympathy at all for the tiny baby strapped to my chest. Jerremy is obviously looking around for witnesses to the assault (or to his luck at having a front row seat for watching two half naked women wrestle in chocolate).
So since I have lost the match, I will happily tell you about the marvelously imaginative writing that goes on when Willow puts finger to keyboard (obviously not pen to paper). Willow's blog, Willow the Wisp, is a lovely mix of RL and SL. This is where you get to know all about the girl behind the avatar (complete with adorable pictures!), her adventures in SL and in RL and her love of a good meme. Willow is a terribly talented writer. I love reading each and every word for its elegance and British wit. If you ever hear me talking about boxed lunatics, her blog is where I got the term. Her blog gives you a feel for her many projects, including Twilight magazine and heading up the SLNN Fashion Team. I love that she must never sleep and has time to let her mind spill out onto the pages of this blog!
Below are some additional pictures of the party and here is a link to a video of the party. Enjoy!

Here you can see costume contest winners (Yes! a 3-way tie!) Looker Lumet and Freggeltje Food as beach camping aliens and Eladrienne Laval as an Opossum backpacker. (That is Willow there, off to the side, in grass stains and with twigs in her hair. Read about that costume choice here.)
