#alwaysbeplugging

I said I would write a BloodyMary fic and so I shall deliver, the first chapter at least. Simon centric because I really don’t see a lot of them.

In honor of #MEDALLIONSTATUS Week Two, here is an image that you probably expected as much as I did. THANK YOU for all the support from all humans and pets so far. Check out @huckberry today for a TRIPLE CORGI giveaway and then come back here at 12:30 for a full hour of GET YOUR PETS. Here are the plugs as always: ‪bit.ly/MEDALLIONSTATUS‬ johnhodgman.com/TOUR #MEDALLIONSTATUS bit.ly/hodgmail #alwaysbeplugging LOS ANGELES SAN FRANCISCO AND TEXAS: I’m coming for you.

‪Thank you Mark, who made this pooping Ewok statuette, Ben, who is Seven Copy Club Member Number 3, and the young man who took the name “Stun Gravy@ and built a YouTube career in it, and these two cute Hollywood curlers, plus Christa the social worker and the crew of mysterious satellite launchers and ALL the old friends and new who came out to hear me talk #MEDALLIONSTATUS in the middle of a brutalist concrete #DTLA plaza last night. And especially thank you to @aimeemann for ever talking to me ever. Make sure to subscribe to her and @TedLeo’s ART OF PROCESS podcast because it is GOOD. I have a night off tonight and then tomorrow I’ll be in Austin for the Texas Book Festival, and you can find out more about that right here: http://bit.ly/statusTX and also in the bio. ‬ ‪#MEDALLIONSTATUS ‬ Bit.ly/MEDALLIONSTATUS johnhodgman.com/tour ‪#alwaysbeplugging‬ (at Aratani Theatre at JACCC) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4C8XW3lcST/?igshid=1toi44don1831

Ann bought 7 books but gave her Seven Copy Club membership to her brother Dave (middle) for his birthday. Dave has already bought three copies to go Triple Corgi Elite, and Marc has the good sense to be married to Ann and also wear a name tag, so I let them all sit with me in the signing line. I call them the Seven Copy Kids, and they solve crimes. Thank you @texasbookfest and @lyle_lovett and @drlawyercop and @jamiattenberg and @lenubienne and all the humans I got to meet in Austin. No thanks to BATS who blew off flying out from the bridge that night, but I did see a cool bat belt buckle. No thanks to pickle beer, but thanks Melissa for bringing it. See everyone else on the rest of the tour. ‪bit.ly/MEDALLIONSTATUS‬ johnhodgman.com/TOUR #MEDALLIONSTATUS bit.ly/hodgmail #alwaysbeplugging (at First United Methodist Church of Austin) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Kjxupl16e/?igshid=lx0lfa9gwc2a
