Not to be confused with Blate.
Or Burp.
Blype=Blogger+Skype
two worlds combining into one internet force.
Also not to be confused with cybering.
pervs.
Over the past couple of months
I have had the great honoUr
and privilege of blyping with some of my fellow bloggers.
The transition usually goes like this:
We follow each others blogs.
we leave lengthy and often times awkward and or inappropriate comments to each other
we add each other on twitter, fb, and or both.
Sometimes/most of the time gchats happen
and e mails are sent.
Then, in the wee hours of the night/morning (time difference)
we make the decision..
to "meet" face to face
via
skype.
Then I start to sweat.
Not because I am a 50 year old man worried I am going to blow my cover.
But because 99% of the time I am in my pajamas
with no makeup on
and my hair up in towel...(if i actually showered that day)
just chillen with my stuffed animals.
It may be less embarrassing if I was a 50 year old man.
Once we do a quick skype chat de-briefing/warning of what we look like
we click the call button.
and BAM.
BLYPE.

| this would be a lot less awkward if my fb wasnt in the background. rookie mistake. Also note how i am skyping with E day AND her blog is open on my internet. turbo creep. |
I would like to take a second to point out three things.
1. I am wearing the same thermal shirt in every.single.blype picture.
Pictures that were taken on very different days.
2. In one picture I do in fact have a towel on my head.
3. three way. nuff said.
Have you ever cybered?
I mean Blyped?








nope... but i'm down.
ReplyDeleteor, as the jersey shore cast would say, DTB.
xoxo
well this was enlightening. remind me to always have my model face on while blyping you. you tend to sneak attack the screen shots when they're least expected.
ReplyDeletejust kidding. i don't have a model face. clearly.
xoxo
Very cute but why is that one girl skyping in her garage:)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like so much fun! The only person I Sype is my fiance and we haven't done that in forever since his connection sucks butt!
ReplyDeleteI am down to blype one day! I have never bylbered with anyone before (blog/skype/cyber)..that'd be creepy!
ReplyDeletethis looks fun and therefore I am jealous!
this next statement will make me TURBO CREEPY TIMES THREE:
you have 2 friend requests on Facebook
hahaha omg literally I am dying in my cube right now at how creepy I am for noticing this
but your blype looks fun and I like your thermal/towel!
xoxox
Yes, I blype...you made me confess. I have just entered this world and I must say...I kinda like it. :) Ok, maybe more than kinda..........
ReplyDelete"Have you ever cybered? I mean Blyped?"
ReplyDeleteJust laughed. So hard. Like a creep in my cubicle. Girl. Stop it.
And no, I have never blyped. Or cybered, for that matter.
so funny. one day i am goin to get in on these. i want it to be a three way cyber/blype w/ ahn.
ReplyDeleteoh yeah and whose the blogger who has to take her goldfish to the basement for the blype?
#poorgirl
Omigoodness, my two favorite Megan all on one screen!!! Love it
ReplyDelete"(if i actually showered that day)" - are we the same person?
ReplyDeleteI haven't, but it looks fun! And didn't know you could 3 way skype. I have to try that sometime.
ReplyDeleteI love this! All you girls look like so much fun. Even if in pajamas, it seems like a lovely idea xx Bringing life to the words and imagery we see through blogs
ReplyDeletehope to hear from you*
love amy ^.^

This is too funny! I've never blyped before. The closest I've come to "meeting" a fellow blogger is e-mail/twitter/pen pal-ing. Looks like you ladies had fun :)
ReplyDeleteDear Lord.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the garage cause this is the day I redid my dresser and I'm waiting for it to dry!!!!
I love blyping with you! (:
xoxox
i had my first blype a few weeks ago (also my first skype experience) and it was amazeballz. totallly hooked :) xoxo jcd :: cornflake dreams
ReplyDeletecan we come up with a name for a blogger that is a friend? even though youve never blated or blyped?
ReplyDeletei have never blyped...but i like facebook in the background...do you really have 39 unread messages though?
ReplyDeletenope but sounds fun! the blyping...not the cypering...creepy
ReplyDeletehaha! and the thermal shirt! too funny!
i got skype like 5 years ago (before it was cool, just sayin... not really) to chat with a friend who was living in mexico and i haven't used it since. i need to find my login name/password and then i can join in the fun. blype orgy? ew. : )
ReplyDeleteI have yet to take a blogging relationship to that level. I'm kinda shy. Kinda. Or, I might be a 50 year old man who chooses to hang out with only stuffed animals and not the happy girl I portray on my blog. One or the other.
ReplyDeleteXO, Katie or (Karl) Hehehe

A Blype has never been in my order. L-A-M-E. I guess my tech-savvy gene never kicked in. Or the ability to wear makeup during prime Blyping hours...
ReplyDeleteGoodness girl, you get around:-) Once our relationship hits that next level, we'll definitely blype it up! xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh now I'm jealous of all this blyping hahahaha
ReplyDeleteDon't you love the group video skyping?!! My fam just discovered it. Its pretty awesome.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the words you created. They make perfect sense!
<3
Oh Michaela.. don't lie using a "dresser" excuse. We know the truth.
ReplyDeleteAnd Megan.. if it helps, I'm currently laying in bed (at 12:30 in the afternoon) wearing my brother's old t-shirt and no pants. TMI? probably.
Oh, and the shirt says "you're old" with a finger pointing. Classic.
yes to group blyping!!! love this so much 'cause me and some other bloggity bffs did this very thing late into the night - and we could have talked to for hours. we're totally stealing your phrase for it. genius!
ReplyDeletei have not yet taken the plunge to blyping...it does indeed look fun though :) but i dont post pictures of me on my blog so it may make someone nervous to see what i REALLY look like..hmmm :)
ReplyDeleteWhy haven't WE blyped yet?! This is an outrage.
ReplyDeleteI do in fact skype... but only with a cute boy ; )
ReplyDeleteI want a blype chat with you and miss megan! except I am wayyy too concerned with how I look and would only accept the call if I had make-up on. Yerp. I said that.

ReplyDeleteI have never blyped... maybe someday :o) If I'm brave enough!
ReplyDeleteahhh...this just made me miss you. and our blypes. although...not the blypes wherein you show me a lock of bear hair.
ReplyDeletewhy are you so funny? it's not fair.
ReplyDeletei meant my last comment in a funny way, but realized that it came out sounding like a 5 year old throwing a tantrum. oy vey, funny fail.
ReplyDelete-Kendall
I have never crossed over the blyping line! - There's just something so scary about taking that next step haha!
ReplyDeleteLove the screen shot... and love that there's evidence of your blog stalking! haha
xoxo

im going to get kicked off the blog world i just know it - i don't cook or etsy and i dont even own a webcam to skype.
ReplyDeletelet's blype soon.
ReplyDeletei feel so at ease knowing we both will probs be in pj's.
This looks like so much fun! Priceless with the same shirt! I've never had a blype. Skyped but not 'special' or interesting enough really to blype. More power to ya!
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh....my goodnes...how your posts just warm my heart. AND blow my mind! BLYPING!?! Woah. I think my brain my explode with trying to comprehend that kind of awesomeness!
ReplyDelete....... ok, I'm sorry. I got a little out of control there.
But seriously.
I've never blyped. (my macbook tried to make that word blipped. ha. that makes me laugh.)
ReplyDeleteanyway. I've never even skyped. :( sad face. Am I the last one left on this great green earth?
p.s. you are cute. always. quit it.
Sorry for that.
ReplyDeleteBtw I love your blog! I realize I just spent a lot of time talking about another woman.
For that I apologize.
♥cheche
p.s.
I'm praying for your mom still!
oops. I didn't post the part I was sorry about.
ReplyDeleteKind of a good thing I guess.
I was basically telling you thank you for introducing me to Michaela and how much I loved her blog and why... It went something like
Great smile.
Great blog.
Great style.
Loves the Lord...
yeah. A match.comish post in the making. hahaha
So I apologized and brought it back to you. Because... you know... are number one ;).
hahahaha I'm soooo sad.
annnd. I'm done.
I love Skyping! I guess I will need to try Blyping. Sounds so intimidating. Maybe I should vlog first...
ReplyDeleteyou are brave. I only ever skyped with my husband when we were dating. usually he just made faces at himself and took embrassing screen shots of me. I am a little afraid of skype now!
ReplyDeleteY'all are SO cute!! Love these blype dates.
ReplyDeleteHahaha. I love that everyone is loving our blypes! It totally made my day that you were in that thermal in every single picture. You are my hero. Haha.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part was where you said we do a debriefing about what we look like. That is SO true!!
love, we should blype soon, make it happen :)
ReplyDeletei love this! i want to try it!! i'm at the gchatting stage with a bloggy friend, but it must be a HUGE step to jump to skye. scary. but fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm about to steal the creeper award from you..
ReplyDeleteconsidering we became friends on facebook about a month ago!
haha xo :)
i LOVE that you blype! ;) i've only blyped with one blog friend before meeting... but i do do the phone calls/ texts etc. and just recently was SO LUCKY to meet a few fabulous girls in NYC.
ReplyDeletei adore friendly creepers ;) ha
what a sec? i don't blype. i blate. but maybe i should start cybering... err, i meant blyping...
ReplyDeleteps... yeah, this is randomly on an old post. don't judge me for stalking your past posts... its just, well, don't worry about it.
