BACON brings out the best in everyone. Last year we had a waiting list of other bloggers who were hoping they would be able to attend the inaugural BACON. One in fact wrote a poem and we at the House of Miles were so impressed that we did extend her an invitation. The ‘her’? She’s now our very own Kendra—Ms. Pixie Dust. We thought we’d share this again as the BACON countdown continues.
Every Blog Has Its Day
At heart, I’m a writer. Always my passion.
Inspirations include travel, beauty, and fashion.
My blog, as you know, is a blend of all three
It fills a nice niche, as my readers agree.
Most travel hack blogs are now written by guys.
Mine has a new perspective – fresh eyes.
I was encouraged by your validation
So I took the leap – planned a “working vacation.â€
I crossed my fingers and booked my two nights
I rented a car and I booked my two flights.
Then I waited and hoped, on the edge of my chair
That you’d write back soon, with the news I was “there.â€
But I waited to long – Cheyenne Mountain Resort
has a 7-day policy (that’s not so short).
So I’ve missed the window for refunds – oh no!
I must make a choice now, to stay or to go.
I hope that you’ll give me a place at the table.
I know that you’ll find I am worthy and able.
You won’t regret it, I promise I’ll prove
My posts and my stories will only improve.
My enthusiasm is great, my dedication is strong
Please oh please tell me you think I belong.
I’ll listen, take notes, and learn more than most
Then I’ll go home and write super quality posts.
I hope you can see that I’m not at all fakin’
And soon give me news that you’ll let me in BACON!
In other words….
Hi, Randy. It’s me again!
