Let's start out with HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN BARROWMAN!! What a great day, JB's been making the world a happier place to be in for 44 years now!!
Now onto the #TwitterParty! This is going to be pretty much 3 hours of high intensity #BarrowmanDay! The party is going from 7pm-10pm GMT which is 11am-2pm PST (if you're in California like John and I right now). Just follow us @BarrowmanDay on twitter to join in!
We thought a fun way to celebrate would be to make a list of 44 reasons we love John Barrowman. Just 44 of the countless many and they are in no particular order. We'll be tweeting them over the 3 hour, some along with pictures and videos. And when the party is over I will post the completed list here for everyone to see. We'll tag the tweets #Barrow44 so you can check them out there as well.
We'll also be playing a #BarrowGame as per usual, it'll be straight forward but certainly something we can do for 3 hours. Name of the game is #ILoveJBBecause. It's just everyone joining in and adding to the list of reasons. So to play the game tweet something like:
#ILoveJBBecause He's my alarm ringer and it puts me in a good mood all day! @BarrowmanDay (and no that is not on the list but it is one of my reasons! I wake up to "De-Lovely" everyday!)
Remember the #ILoveJBBecause tag and to put @BarrowmanDay at the end so we can read all your tweets. The reasons can be serious or silly, obvious or random. Just any reasons you may have and as many as you want to share. The fun will be as with every #BarrowmanDay all of us fans sharing in conversation about how we adore John!!
One DISCLAIMER, as you know we get a lot of tweets from everyone and it's GREAT, so much fun to hear from all of you and by all means @BarrowmanDay all the time we LOVE to read your thoughts and #BarrowGame posts. BUT it's simply not possible to respond to you all or for each tweet. We'll be talking and RTing as usual but if you don't hear back from us, we HAVE seen your tweet but we are doing our darnedest to avoid #TwitterJail. If we tweet too much they freeze our account and we cannot tweet at all. But if you talk to us on non #BarrowmanDay's we will ALWAYS respond. And we read them all I swear.
I think that'll give you a pretty good idea of what to expect for the #TwitterParty hope to see you all there and please enjoy our John Barrowman birthday card that Mickie put together. Isn't it cute? xx
