I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it!” Oprah is taping her show’s season premiere in New York this year on September 10th and (guess what?) I’m going to be in the audience (yay!) You don’t understand, I LOVE Oprah. Okay, I don’t actually know her, so I guess it’s moreso that I love what she’s done with her life, money and celebrity status. Anyway, I’m super excited to be going to her show. This is how it happened (because you know that I wasn’t able to get tickets off her website!)…
A married couple friend of mine’s was over our house for dinner last Tuesday. After dinner, my girlfriend checked her messages. An e-friend of hers had sent her an email saying that Oprah was coming to NY and that she and a guest were invited to be a part of the studio audience. My friend read it casually and I screamed…”Take ME…I LOVE Oprah.” She said okay and I started jumping up and down. (I’m pretty expressive when I’m really excited.) Both of our husbands were laughing at me. My husband was happy that I was happy, but he’s not really a big talk show fan. The only thing that he had to say was, “I hope that she says and you get a car; and you get a car…” (even though we already have a car and I don’t drive).
Anyway, I’m a list person and being in or on Oprah (the magazine or show) has been on my prayer list for the last couple of years. Well, this isn’t exactly the same thing, but I’ll take it!
