FIPS Posts Dramatized at Brooklyn Blogfest 2011

Yes, it's true. Several FIPS posts were staged as dramatic monologue at last week's 2011 Brooklyn Blogfest and we weren't even there to bask in the glory. Thank god for this youtube vid!

The outing of my husband for lax personal hygiene was read by local actress Charlotte Maier, perhaps best remembered for her part in the Hugh Grant/Sandra Bullock classic, Two Weeks Notice. She was genius in that. I remember helmet hair and maybe that she played Hugh Grant's snobby mother.

Woman #1: My husband sometimes does not change his underwear for DAYS. He said his record is five days and he had, in fact, gone three the weekend before during the baseball tournament (in 500 degree weather and 100 percent humidity). It was so bad, he laughed, that he’d thrown the boxer briefs out rather than risk my finding them in the laundry basket. 

Erica's seminal semenal blog post on the inner life of a masturbating library porn watcher was read by Nancy Graham. She's best known for the role of Zombie in the 2008 film, Night of the Living Bush Supporters. 

Woman #3:  You know how sometimes you go to the public library to do some work or hang out or whatevs. And then after awhile you realize that you’re not really getting anything done, and so then you start texting some friends, but no one is answering you back? So then you try talking to the dude next to you until you realize that he’s homeless and is having a convo with a head of lettuce that he’s dressed up with a wool hat and drawn eyes on with a black magic marker? And then you’re just like: hmm…maybe I’ll just pull up some hardcore pantyhose porn and jerk off right here at the public computers? Just me?

Thanks for the memories! Sorry (almost) that we missed it.
