Step 1. Go to Blissdom.
Step 2. Get yourself an #ALLCAPSAWESOME roommate… who also loves to dance.
Step 3. Wait for a Pajama Party with a live performance by musician Chris Mann.
Step 4. Tell #ALLCAPSAWESOME roomie you want to dance.
Step 5. Disregard the lack of dancing occurring, find your spot on the dance floor, and dance like nobody’s watching.
Step 6. Have a Really Awesome Friend decide to capture your tomfoolery with her video camera.
Step 7. Have that Really Awesome Friend upload said videos of tomfoolery to YouTube.
Step 8. Laugh about the good times you shared, and tweet those YouTube links.
Step 9. Lightning strikes and Chris Mann sees the links, watches you and your #ALLCAPSAWESOME roomie shakin’ it, and posts your video to his blog, along with asking to know who YOU and your #ALLCAPSAWESOME roomie are.
Step 10. Have an Award-Winning Tweeter in your corner, who identifies you to Chris Mann, and sends around this link.
Step 11. …and these tweets…
Step 12. And then Chris Mann sends out a tweet that reads like this…
So now when you see KLZ and me touring as Chris Mann back-up dancers or on Chelsea Lately, you’ll know why…
Am i the only person who has never heard of Chris Mann?
No matter. I know you and KLZ. MUCH more important!
Nope you certainly are not, who the H double hockey sticks is Chris Mann?
You are my idol(s). That is all.
LMAO! That was awesome. I haven’t had that much fun doing…well…anything in a long time. Way to rock it ladies!
Wowsa. Awesome is an understatement.
What can I say … just an adorable video! You look like you are having so much fun!!!! Your dance video reminded me of those after game dances in HS were everyone just used to cut loose & dance the night away!! I love seeing/reading all of your blissdom stories!
AHHHHHH!!!! Those videos are SO awesome just like you two. You both deserve all the fame. And I can TOTALLY see how he could have pulled an oblique – HA HA HA!!!!
That video made my day yesterday and again today! It is the most awesome thing I have seen in a long time. It totally deserves to go viral.
I have no words for how honored I am just to know you two.
And I TOTALLY missed the tweet from Chris Mann, I guess since I’m an idiot and didn’t follow him the minute your video posted!!
But you two really busted a move or two, got yourselves all famous, and yeah….I knew you back when.
OMG you girls are rock stars! LOVE the videos with your bootie shakin’. I better see some of that at Type A!
OMG, you know how much I love stuff like this!

The whole play by play is so cool to read. The step by step is awesomely done.
Yes, you have an awesome roomate but you documenting the whole sweet process is something only the organized Liz can do.
You have a mind for this.
This is so very cool, Liz and KLZ.
I can feel your excitement.
YOU MUST BE SO EXCITED!
Just had to come back and tell you how cool this is.
You throwing down your purse?
That’s for realz. And KLZ not even making eye contact while she busts a move???

I love you guys.
Oh my gosh Liz!!! I love that video and I LOVE that Chris Mann got a hold of it and is now a total admirer of you and KLZ. This is just awesome beyond words.
You ladies rock
Let me know when you go on tour…I can be your groupie.
I don’t use the expression LMAO very often. But I think it’s appropriate in this situation.
I just saw the video, and it was fantastic! And I am way jealous of both of your moves. You guys are rock stars.
Oh.My.God. You all are AWESOME. And now you’re famous!!!!!! I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to go to a blog conference more than I do right now…you guys made it look like a blast.
[...] Have you ever had that feeling that you were supposed to do something, only you couldn’t figure how to do it? Or you thought you were supposed to do one thing but something kept tugging you starboard-wise and you ended up in a different place than you meant to go? But it’s all okay because something seems like it fits, plus all your friends are there and they laugh at your jokes about oversized brassieres and think your stick figures are ALLCAPSAWESOME?? (Thanks, Liz! Totally stealing that!) [...]
I would have had to be soooo wasted get out there like that! Way to go you guys!
Haha congrats! You’re a star! What a fun story
Classic!! You’re famous!!!!
