Getting Lucky in Kentucky... part 1

"I was dreamin' when I wrote this, so sue me if I go to fast"..... 10 pts for Prince reference! Any-who, Bob and I made it back from our Louisville trip safe, happy, and in my case, hungover from the two drinks I consumed Friday night. That's right two... stop laughing. (they were tequila based, does that give me cred? no?)
As you can tell from the above pictures, Bob and I met (in my case, re-met) Joel McHale. He seems like a genuine guy, very patient with all of us freaks who wait for his autograph and a picture.
I have more to write about his trip...stay tuned.....

Workin' For The Weekend

I should start by saying I have a huge t.v. crush on Joel McHale, just in case this is your first visit to diva-land. He is funny as hell, which goes a long way with me. He is tall, which is also a physical trait I am into. And, he is cute. (I could be describing my husband here, btw. He is cute, which I noticed immediately when I met him, but his sense of humor is what got me. And, he is over 6 foot, which I LOVE)
Enough about my husband, back to my boyfriend. I have been watching "The Soup" on E! for years now, and the crush on Joel has grown stronger every Friday. I even bought the movie "Open Season 2" for my "kids" (read: myself) because Joel voices the main character in the animated flick. So, yeah, I guess listening to his voice is just as good for me.
As a kid and a teen I did not develop a lot of crushes. Mostly, I would find myself crushing on the "funny" guy. I was more partial to Will Ferrell on SNL than Brad Pitt.
I have recently developed a secondary crush to Joel. His name is Chris Hardwick. Like I mentioned, I have watched "The Soup" for years, and last week watched the spin off, "Web Soup" with host Chris Hardwick. Great show, very similar format to "The Soup".

As always, I have a point, I just have to ramble before I get to it. Friday night my DH and I are traveling up to Louisville sans Divas for an overnight stay. We have tickets to see Joel McHale's show at 8:00. I went to see him in February and it was a blast. Yesterday I started Internet stalking my new boyfriend, Chris Hardwick, and found out he is going to be opening for Joel Mchale on Friday! Who-hoo. If only Robert Pattinson could come along, this could be my perfect weekend. No kids, hubby in tow, laughing our asses off at two hilarious (hot) guys! I am sure if DH was writing this he would think it was his perfect weekend if Megan Fox was coming along (slut), but she's not, so, suck it, Bob....

I am hoping to get another picture with Joel, preferably one where I don't look like I just got off a three day bender. Maybe wear a little makeup this time, etc. True, that picture was taken after driving 5 plus hours to St. Louis, shopping all day, and waiting until midnight for Joel. Still, more effort should have been made. I did replace my wedding picture with this one, after all.

I should go back and count how many times I mentioned "The Soup" or Joel and look into some compensation. I tell you, I would ROCK as his publicist!

The Happenings...

Writer's Block still fully formed in my head, I will give you a brief list of the "happenings" in Diva land....
*Diva Rebecca is officially registered for pre-school. In diva-mom terms that means I have cold, hard, cash riding on the fact that I can get her little ass potty trained by August.
*DH's b-day was Monday, but we celebrated over the weekend. Celebrations included a large cookie cake from the GAC.... it was fabulous. I never thought of myself as a cookie cake fan, but I have been converted. On a related note, my waistline has been converted to a larger size...
*DH and I bought tickets to go see Joel McHale in Louisville in June. I have a fantasy that includes me following him around his tour like a dead head.
*Choir at church has been keeping me busy. Our director quit two weeks ago and I have taken over the job. The pay sucks, but it is a lot of fun, and I really enjoy all of the people in our group.
*Sarah has added a new phrase to her list: anytime you say "Hi, Sarah!" she responds with, "Hi, Sa-wah!". It is really quite cute. I make her say it a few dozen times a day.
Well, off to make breakfast, do dishes, etc. Be back soon!
