I'm baaack and FAMOUS

I know I said I was gone for good.  But, THIS is something blog worthy.

I went to Bethenny Frankel's Skinnygirl Night Out in Milwaukee on Thursday night.  It was an amazing show, she explained it as a conversation with the audience.  It was great, I had a massive freak out that I was only 4 rows away from my idol.

After the show the real fun started.  I bought the tickets with the included meet and greet.  So my mom and I rushed to the signing room and were 20th in line.  The whole time I was freaking out saying "what should I say, I want her to know that she actually means something to me blah blah."  And moms says, "Oh just say whatever comes to your mind no big deal."  Well I must've said something right because Bethenny asked to HUG me.  I watched as so many people went before me with a quick handshake, picture, signed book and I BAM I get a hug.  In addition, to the hug she chatted with me for a good minute when everyone else got probably 15 seconds.

Chatting away.

Oh it's not over.  As we were walking out of the signing room her assistant ran over to my mom and I and asked, "Bethenny told me to come get a video of you!  Would you mind doing a video for the website?  People like you are the reason she does this."  I was still freaking out over hugging her and so I'll let the video explain for itself.

This is the link to the actual page that I'm on on bettheny.com.  I realized yesterday while freaking out seeing myself on BETHENNY FRANKELS WEBSITE, that I am the only video out of all her tour videos that isn't just Bethenny speaking.

My boyfriend has been having a freak out over this just as much as me, because it makes him face "the secret."  I truly give all the credit of this amazing experience to believing in meeting and having Bethenny know me one day.

I AM STILL ON CLOUD 9!

For the love of blogs

Because I feel like I have nothing to contribute to the blog world and that blogging is another task that doesn't need to be added to my to do list, I have decided against it.  For now at least.  Maybe I'll post when something REALLY awesome happens.  But, right now my life is slow and boring. I don't have my own kitchen and I have to eat the premade food our chef makes us.  And the food is usually not gluten free, so I eat the same boring salads day in and day out (and who wants to see that?!?!).  So when I can make awesome recipes and do the thing I love most(cook), I will be back in the blogging business.  Maybe I'll be back Fall '11 semester when I move in with my best friend and have a kitchen.  We're fun, she's a journalism major and good at ideas.  We'll see what happens.

You never know with a couple of crazy twi-hards.

 

And don't worry I'll still be reading and enjoying my beloved blogs daily.
