I’m Giving Away Free Kisses & A Mug

Just wanted to say a quick “THANK YOU” for the supportive comments and feedback you’ve given about my Matchmaker session. Seriously, Funky Brown Chick has the best readers on the internet. You recently left fun, kind and encouraging comments on the blog and on my Facebook. If you’ve seen that classic Drew Barrymore romantic comedy Never Been Kissed, I feel like I’m at the end of the movie where there’s a big stadium of people cheering for me, hoping the cute guy shows up (courtesy of my matchmaker, of course).

By the way, speaking of kind words here and on Facebook, huge shout out to Funky Brown Chick readers in Australia!!!! Half dozen Aussies commented on a Facebook note I wrote about them. Great people. I’ve gotta go down under for a visit some day — especially that town called “Manly.” Sounds fun ;) I’m curious about the rest of you. If you’re not from Australia (or even if you are), please leave a comment in the section below to let me know where you are right now. As an added incentive, I’ll send a free Funky Brown Chick mug to a randomly selected person from today’s comments section. I’ll even cover it with a kiss or two before dropping it in the mail. Consider it a “Reader Appreciation” gift from me to you. By the way, this is an EXCELLENT opportunity for lurkers to dip their toes in the public comments section. No need to say much. Just a quick comment that says: “Hi from ___.” It’s always exciting to discover Funky Brown Chick readers live in Branson, Missouri; Roanoke, Virginia; Yucaipa, California and destinations outside the U.S. So, come on, why are you waiting? Your fingers are aching for you to type “hi” and, possibly, get a free coffee mug. Ready. Set. Go.

I adore that scene from Never Been Kissed! So so great!

…as for the hi from bit – I’m Kate… from Newcastle, Australia, currently living in London. & yes, do make a trip to Oz & check out Manly, it’s a nice part of the world… though I’d suggest going further along Sydney’s Northern Beaches, check out Collaroy or head all the way out to Palm Beach – it’s a truly beautiful stretch.

Hi Twanna:  Terri here in Vegas, lived in Florida, California and originated in New York.  I will be featuring your extremely interesting blog on my dating directory website.  You have a way with words that most bloggers do not share and I want my website visitors to know about you.

Was a matchmaker some years ago and would have enjoyed trying to find you “Mr. Right” as you have so much going for you! 

Blessings to you,,,,,,,

hey twanna! i stumbled upon your site so i’m commenting on a very dated post.

your mention of branson, mo. brings me waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back & 1 family reunion trip is all it took. i can not forget the haunting vegas-like neon light displays of, get this,  FAMILY BANDS lining the high-way. being born & raised in newark, nj, w/ 20min acccess to nyc its easy to understand how this was a culture shock for me to say the least; it was down right scary & surreal. no offense to midwesterners…..the experience was just a testament to my naivety about pop-cultures influence on society.
