Hi. My name is Kelly Reeves. I love cookies, crafts, plaid, the Internet, music and especially cats. I am the co-founder and managing editor of Urlesque.
I also have a blog for my cats. You can e-mail me at kellaroot at gmail dot com or just ask.

Inspired by the ‘boomers, my mustache for the URDB book. Be a part of the record!

GPOYW - Last picture as a “single lady” edition at (of course) The Smith.
Fun fact! Naveen was the last person to see me before Jeff and I got engaged because I bumped into him that night.

(hi new followers coming from the tumblr radar! I promise not to talk about my upcoming nuptials too much!) xo

One wedding thing and then I’m done.

Templatized, terrible wedding websites are a huge pet peeve of mine so one of my main goals is to have an actually useful and cute wedding site. None of the crappy “how we met” BS. Anyone know of any killer (easy?) website makers or want to make me one?

Right now, I’m OBVI thinking Tumblr. Any other ideas, smarties?

Dear Kelly,
I was a little too drunk to convey my full level of excitement about your news in my texts last night. For this I apologize and present you with my latest PowerPoint creation.
In Taylor we trust,
Joy

In case you only follow me on Tumblr, I’ll let Joy’s fantastic graphic be the first to tell you that I’m engaged! Don’t worry, I’ll try to start a separate (secret?) blog to keep track of weddingish things I like, so no need to unfollow me for fear of that. Unless you’re just tired of me already, in which case, go for it.
BRB — going to take a nap for a few months.

OMG MY FIRST FAN* VIDEO - For some reason I dance each week on the Urlesque Urly Show podcast. Here are my dances altogether.

*okay maybe not fan. my aunt made it, but still!

urlesque:

Does Ben Folds know what ROFL means? Does the co-founder of the Internet know what the Fail Whale is? We took to the Webby Awards red carpet to give a lil Internet Pop Quiz to the web elite.

And no, FML doesn’t mean Facebook Markup Language :D

I love the way this video turned out. I had a lot of fun at the Webby Awards and doing this video. I am in love with Vint Cerf and it still hasn’t sunk in that I’ve met Ben Folds (whose wife is also the cutest and nicest. Not pictured but she got a couple of the questions right that Ben didn’t :)

urdb:

Massively excited for this event. Our lineup features the likes of Kelly Reeves, Elna Baker, Cory Cavin, Todd Lamb, Alex Young, and many more. The night also marks the NYC debut of Kickstarter legend ToTs, the world’s only rapper who rhymes exclusively about potatoes. 
All proceeds from the night will go to The St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a group that raises funds to combat childhood cancer. Advance tickets (highly recommended) available here.

For some odd reason, I agreed to participate in this month’s URDB event by trying to set a record that involves clogging… something I did when I was young. I have one of my outfits from back then (gonna try to fit into it) and my shoes. I’m scared to practice, lest I annoy my neighbors or scratch up my floor…. so we’ll see how this goes. Like riding a bike?

GUACTACULAR IS TONIGHT!

As if you Guactacular ticket holders needed reminding (it’s sold out, sadface), it’s tonight! I’m judging! I’m starving and can’t wait to eat them all!

GPOYitcan’twaituntilW: Life-long dreams come true edition.
Back when I was a wee teen, I was pretty into Taylor Hanson. Like, “convinced we’d one day get married” into him. Or “felt stabbed in the back because he got married in my home state even though he’s from Oklahoma” into him. Or how about “studied music business in college as a path to him” into him.
You may ask yourself why he looks so scared in this photo. I like to believe that it’s because he realizes he missed out on his destiny with me for his wife and FOUR kids. Maybe had I known, I would’ve worn something a little cuter.
Ok, I’m kidding (kind of) but this is still pretty exciting. I guess my plan did work in some way. Aren’t they taller than expected?
But…. the lean, people. THE LEAN.
