CYOB: It's almost here!

I want to prepare everyone for tomorrow's Big Event, something so big that it will eventually have not only it's own book deal but also it's own federal holiday, requiring everyone to be off work for the day.

No, I speak not of a presidential birthday but of NPW's Choose Your Own Blogventure II.

It's like those old Choose Your Own Adventure books but better. Thirty bloggers -- The Modern Gal included -- will offer their own portion to the story, and instead of having to manually find the page you're skipping to (and seeing all the other possible directions you could have gone while trying to get there), you merely click to the next portion of your blogventure. How awesome is that?? You're going to want to spend some time with this Friday. I think the first CYOB event took me a good two hours to get through all the possible branches of the story, and that was with fewer installments. Fortunately, I had the foresight to take Friday off work. Ok, that's not true. It was just a matter of the stars aligning.

A fair warning: The Modern Gal installment of CYOB2 is NOT the start of the story, so make sure you visit NPW's blog first tomorrow. She is also not going to promise that the story will make sense by the time you get through her part of it.

If you want a warmup, go check out the original CYOB.
