**Vlogger Fair and YouTube Sponsorship**

Today marks an exciting announcement: YouTube will be involved as a media sponsor for Vlogger Fair in Seattle. We are thrilled to have this iconic platform on board, and we can't wait to see what's in store for our audience.

As I prepare for the event, I couldn't help but think about my wardrobe choices. I've been spotted wearing a Captain America hoodie on multiple occasions, and I must admit that I have a soft spot for it. Not only is it a classic superhero design, but it also represents my geeky side. I've been sharing my love for the Marvel universe with my friends and family for years, and this hoodie has become a staple in my wardrobe.

In other news, I recently partnered with static stuff.com to promote their geek gear. The company is offering a special promotion where the 50th person to make a purchase using my name in the comments will get to do a Google+ hangout with me. I've been encouraging my friends and followers to take advantage of this offer, and I'm excited to see who will be the lucky winner.

My day has been filled with various tasks, including some contract work and email management. However, I couldn't escape the excitement of receiving Diana's gift, which arrived earlier today. Although I had hoped that it would arrive sooner, I knew that life gets busy, and sometimes things take longer than expected.

Speaking of Diana, she's been feeling down lately, and I wanted to do something special for her. So, when I saw an opportunity to get a box of chocolate-covered strawberries from our friends at Harry and David.com, I jumped at the chance. I thought it would be a nice surprise for her, but now I'm not so sure. Perhaps it's just my imagination getting the better of me.

Just as I was about to leave the house, I received an unexpected visit from Lyanna. She arrived with some nail stamping goodies that she had brought over for Diana. It turns out that Diana will be trying out a new nail art design, and Lyanna has offered to lend her some of her tools. This is definitely a surprise, but we're all excited to see the finished result.

As I pulled into the parking lot, I noticed that Michelle Gambala was already there. We exchanged messages earlier in the day, and I remembered our conversation about eating grasshoppers together (chocolate-covered, of course). It's always great to catch up with friends and see what's new with them.

The evening is shaping up to be a lovely one, with dinner plans that include dolma stuffed grape leaves and beef jerky. We'll have to wait and see how the night unfolds, but for now, we're excited to spend some quality time together.

**A Brief Interlude**

As I sat down to write this article, I realized that I had a bit of a problem on my hands. My trusty camera and beer were in a precarious position, and I needed to figure out how to navigate the situation without any mishaps. Let's just say it was a tense moment, but all is well now.

**Closing Thoughts**

As I wrap up this article, I want to express my gratitude to everyone who has supported me on this journey. It means the world to me, and I'm honored to have such an amazing community behind me. Until next time, stay geeky, and keep on vlogging!
