Birthday Badge Bash

Come one come all… as I celebrate turning 34… not a “major milestone” …but like all years of being alive it deserves to be celebrated and I can think of no other way to celebrate than with you!!!!!!

Starting Wednesday December 11th through December 17th I will be having a Yelp inspired week of shenanigans. I don’t need gifts I just need your faces and your Yelp check-ins as I go on my quest with my starter Pokemon (Jigglypuff) to collect eight badges, enter the Pokemon League and defeat the elite four….

JUST KIDDING (though I do play P-Go and misc others #gottacatchemall… but I do have badges through Yelp (mobile app only) and I’m trying to get 34 for my 34th O.O… so close and figured why not do it with friends… new and old…. and not just for those badges that require group check-ins but for the sheer joy of Yelp and spending time with YOU.

To do so… I’m just having a series of fun hangs and you’re all invited… before you run away for the holidays…

There’s different adventures, outings or eatings depending on days and I hope you can be apart of my Yelp obsession to collect more badges, review more places and have some fun photo ops with you for memories, laughs and of course YELP… lol seriously I have a problem… but everything’s better with “fronds” (Broad City reference):
