SCORE for me.
since he didn't have enough time in his schedule to join his family for the hale theater's production of the scarlet pimpernel, i got the extra ticket! thanks faye. it was such a fun show which was beautifully done. i had the added excitement of never having read, heard, or seen anything about this story, so it was all a pleasant surprise to me. the guy who played percy was cute and funny, too. bonus.
that was friday night. saturday night i got to go out with faye, again. her friend (who also happens to be the human mama of maggie's mom and dad) won tickets to erin's slumber party.
here's a photo of erin, who couldn't keep her hands off of me.
erin is a dj for b98.7 and this party was a mass of women in pajamas trying to sample free stuff and win fun prizes. here's the back of faye's head amongst the crowd of hungry-for-freebies women.
and here's some of what we got to sample:
in theory i should have loved it, but in actuality it was a bit too crowded and disappointing...seeing as how i didn't win anything. but i was able to keep a smile on my face,
because it was still fun to see a few local celebrities
some cute, australian celebrities
and hang out with faye, shari and her younger sister, jannika.
the older sisters:
the younger sisters:
at the party (which really wasn't a sleepover...we were home by 11pm) there was this lady who "talked to angels" who reassured people that all their dead loved ones were still around and watching over them. well, i don't know how i feel about what she does for a living, but i do know that if she recorded her voice i would be asleep in under 2 minutes every night. i was this close to falling asleep in the room...to understand the importance of that you should know that i have NEVER fallen asleep in any public place, not a theater, airplane, church, school, etc. it wasn't that she was boring, it was a very soothing voice and i didn't really care what she was saying, so i just started slipping out. then she said, "i'm getting a message for someone whose birthday is in december..." that's when i came out of my near-slumber state, because faye kicked me. turned out not to be me who was being channeled. whew.
i was glad to find a few chairs that weren't occupied, so i could rest these puppies and watch the people for a while. that carpet is hideous.
anyway, it was a fun weekend. oh, other than the fact that feff broke down. i don't want to talk about it.

Oooohhh, the Scarlett Pimpernel sounds fun! I am glad he was busy so you could have his ticket.
Other than that which we will not mention, it looks like a great weekend! Your life seems super exciting since you moved up north. Wish I was closer so I could invite myself along to your lunch date with Cat.
Sounds like such an interesting night!
Sounds like lots of fun! I love the Scarlett Pimpernel. We have tickets to go in a few weeks. Hale Center Theatre does an awesome job on that production.
Sorry about feff. If you need a ride anywhere, let me know. I'm happy to take you.
And Cristy...I too wish you were closer!
BAHAHAHAHA... Dang I was hoping you were the one getting chaneled!
Danelle, I don't know if you remeber me, but I came across your blog, which I hope you don't mind and I LOVE it. You are so funny and have a great outlook on life. I admire that and I wish I was more like that. I wish I knew you better when you were in Blanding because you are awesome! I love reading your blog and I'd love to get to know you better. (Hope you don't mind)
