CLLAW 5! (HOW DID I MISS IT?)

March 12th, 2010

So, I‘ve been quietly running this blog for a few months now. Biding my time. Waiting to be invited to a super-fun Sideshow Theatre event. And then, on the day of CLLAW 5, (the fifth meeting of the Chicago League of Lady Arm Wrestlers) I was no where to be seen.

HOW COULD I HAVE MISSED IT? It looked so cool…

Luckily, Justine Jablonska, from my alma mater of Northwestern University, was there to capture the highlights. And was awesome enough to share her video with us. So for those who missed it, I give you CLLAW 5!

If that’s not enough reason to feel sorry, even the Washington Post caught some video of this awesome night.

I’m already pumped for the next one!

Sideshow Celebrity Spotting!

February 19th, 2010

Dear Readers,

I heard from reliable sources that the incredible, famous, and talented Rockke L. Squelch was already in Chicago Thursday!  She is of course in the Windy City to be the Master of Ceremonies at CLLAW 5 this Friday night.  I wasn’t expecting to see her in Chicago or out in public until Friday itself, but… I can’t resist some celebrity spotting!  Especially after the excitement of the Time Out Chicago article!

I got a text from a fellow Rockke L. fan that she was at Forever 21 doing some shopping before an interview with a high profile Chicago news source.  Apparently they don’t have Forever 21 stores in her home country.  She looked GORGEOUS as always.   Thank the GODS for camera phones and devoted fellow-fans!   You may have noticed her on the red line Thursday afternoon in full gear, pink feathered eyelashes and all!

(Due to legal concerns, the photographer of the above images prefers to remain anonymous) I  grabbed my camera and headed downtown!  I spotted her meeting with a mysterious new ref.

He was describing his flag moves to her and something must have been lost in translation because a serious cat-fight broke out.

It was awesome.  (I can’t believe I’m breaking this story before Perez Hilton!!)  After the fight she ran for the restroom… and I’m not proud to admit this, but I was so caught up in the excitement of taking pictures of the fight, I kept clicking away and followed her.

I realize that as a reputable blogger, I need to check myself and respect her privacy.  So, Rockke L.  If you’re out there, I’m sorry.  Your beauty and mystery are truly remarkable, and I got carried away.  It will never happen again.  Please lift the restraining order before 9PM tomorrow night so I can see you in action at CLLAW 5!  With the new location of Mystic Celt and the awesome raffle prizes, I need CLLAW in my life!  And of course, I LOVE YOU ROCKKE L!

I’ll (hopefully) see you at Mystic Celt tomorrow (3443 North Southport Avenue
Chicago, IL 60657)
, Readers!  Keep an eye on Rockke L. and this new Ref… something fishy is going on there, who fights over flags??

Much love,

Monahan
