Ha. Thanks, guys. I'm still freaked out a bit, to be honest. I can't believe my luck! They were just the kindest people. I met all of them but Carrie and Rachel. Everybody signed both my books -- even baby Nicole (who is absolutely gorgeous and the sweetest baby -- she kept sharing her toys with me!). Sophie took all of the pics. I am still half-asleep and was so tired last night I ended up going to bed during the Dave Grohl interview!
Andy, honestly, I think I did it in 3 shots but it wasn't my fault! Chris was grinning and I ended up having him turn away from me because he kept making me laugh and freak out more. I haven't even heard it. I have a dreadful voice so I'm not really looking forward to that!
Yes, I'm so sad! My family and friends kept calling, "You're going WHERE? You're never going to see them and if you do, they'll think you're a nutjob!" It helps that I introduced myself that way!! I think the best reaction of the day was Dave's. When I pulled the 2 books from my handbag and asked him to sign, he looked completely shocked! After all, I was sitting there with a beer, a newspaper and had the key card that allowed me out to the pool. What are the odds??? He wasn't as shocked as my husband, though. He called and Chris is all, "Who's that?" and I said, "My husband" and Chris said, "Let me answer it. What's his name?" And so he talked to him briefly, and even introduced himself and then handed me back the phone and said, "He's not very talkative." My hubby didn't find it as amusing as I did. Someone was a wee bit jealous! I really don't think he thought I'd see them, let alone have Chris answer my phone! Priceless!
S4 and Toph and Balls had all urged me to go and then Toph and S4 were texting me as I was driving up. Chris and Aled thought that was very funny and S4 even texted while I was talking to them and she rang me later as I sat in the bar. It was a mental day!!! Just absolutely brilliant
