Humble Readers... omg... I am soooooooooo excited!
I just got a phone call from work. A very well known Canadian author/raido personality is in town this week. I have mentioned him before, but seriously, Stuart McLean is hilarious! He writes and tells the Vinyl Cafe stories on CBC Radio. Some of you may be familiar with 'Dave Cooks The Turkey'.
Anyway, he's doing a concert tonight in town. He stopped by my store today to do an impromptu appearance and sign his books (what a day to have off!!!) and his producer was giving away free tickets to our staff. One of the other managers, who knows that my Beloved and I are huge fans, got his producer to set aside a set of tickets for us! They run between $50-70 a pop... and we get to go for free!!!! Tonight!!!!
Can you tell I'm excited?
Okay, I have to go get dinner started and put on something presentable.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
While I might not be a hobbit genetically, I do believe that I am one culturally. A homebody at heart, with a fear of (but slight craving for) adventure, who values simple things like good food, good books, and good friends. Chronicling the journey of the unlikely pairing of a Hobbit and an Ent, who have travelled down the road through infertility & RPL, toward building our family. We've come a long way, and now with two precious wee-lings in tow, our road goes ever on and on...
How cool is that!! I love Stuart McLean. Have a great time!!

ReplyDeleteMeekly peering in from a long absence...so exciting about the author! I've so appreciated your support on my blog, and please forgive me for my lack of support to you.
ReplyDeleteYou are most definitely in my prayers that your dreams of motherhood will be answered. I know you believe God has a plan for you, and I just pray that he reveals it clearly.
I thought of you recently when my BIL showed us pictures of his recent trip to New Zealand. He visited 'Hobbiton' and the 'weta workshop' there...you would have loved it!!!!
Yay for you! Hope you had a fabulous night! Can't wait to hear about it!
