<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p>In the meantime, Hotels.com sent me an invitation to clay myself and star in their upcoming commercial.</p>

<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p>Sounds goofy, doesn't it?  I'm always up for goofy.</p>

<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p>Originally, I envisioned claymating World's Most Precious Pooch by uploading one of her photos and letting the clay gizmo at Hotels.com work its magic.</p>

<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p>I soon discovered that's not how the clay gizmo works.  No uploading of photos, peeps.  Instead, you create your own character.</p>

<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p><strong><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I've grown quite attached to my alter ego, Quinn.</span></span></strong></p>

<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p>In fact, I think I have a girl crush on her.  Isn't she hot?  I can't stop staring at her.  I want to be Quinn in real life.</p>

<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p>If I can't be Quinn, I at least want a hat just like hers.</p>

<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>

<p>To add to all this silliness, Hotels.com assisted me in writing my own own Hotels.com commercial script the Mad Libs way.  <strong><a href="http://clayyourself.com/gallery2.php?rffrid=fb&amp;userID=1296101066723" target="_blank">You can read mine by visiting her</a><a href="http://clayyourself.com/gallery2.php?rffrid=fb&amp;userID=1296101066723" target="_blank">e</a></strong>.  While you're at it, please cast your vote for Me aka Quinn Parrsky.</p>
