Okay, we were out late last night, so instead of doing a full-blown entry today, I’m just going to toss up some pictures of the event we attended Sunday night (which I stole from the web site of the radio station that sponsored the event) with captions, and I’ll do a full-blown recap on Thursday. I’m headed home in a few hours (this was, obviously, a very quick trip), and my flight up here to Pennsylvania went so well and smoothly that I’m 93.8% sure that I’ll end up spending the night in Dulles tonight. Dulles loves me dearly and always wants me to spend the night.
The event, by the way, was Knock Out Cancer, sponsored by Pittsburgh’s KISS 96.1.
Yes, I am dressed up (for me) and yes, I am wearing makeup. Try not to fall over from the shock.
My thoughtful look.
Me and my BFF Teresa Giudice (oh yeah, and Nance’s Mom Shirley.)
“THAT IS AN EXCELLENT POINT, TERESA GIUDICE. I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT THAT WAY.”
Shirley and I were the only ones in the VIP room that thought to bring books with us for signing. The other VIPs were like “That’s so smart! We should have done that!”
Supervising the signing of the books.
“That is not how you spell my name, Teresa Giudice, but that is A-OK!” (Yes, I spelled it for her. We are now such close friends that she can call me Robin instead of the correct Robyn, and it’s FINE.)
“HA HA HA I AM JUST STANDING HERE WITH MY BFF TERESA GIUDICE, YOU STAY OVER THERE, PEONS.”
Giving my BFF Teresa Giudice a loving look.
“I KNOW, RIGHT, TERESA GIUDICE? HA HA HA!”
::BLINDED BY THE BLING OF TERESA GIUDICE’S RING::
“YOU ARE SO RIGHT, TERESA GIUDICE. RIGHT ON, SISTER.”
::considering::
“I WONDER IF TERESA GIUDICE IS GOING TO GIVE ME A HUG?” (Oh yes, she did.)
Listening attentively.
“HA HA HA HA HA YOU SAID IT, SISTER! HA! HA! HA!” (slightly maniacal Robyn is slightly maniacal.)
More supervising of the signing, whilst touching my chin.
“MAKE EYE CONTACT WITH ME, TERESA GIUDICE, I AM SMILING AT YOU!”
And that’s it – though of course I have plenty of pictures of my own (from Nance’s camera, but pictures she’s gonna let me share ’cause she’s nice like that) that I’ll post on Thursday, along with details of the whole trip.
Wish me happy travels! (Now wish me happy travels FOR REAL. I don’t want to spend the night in Dulles, damnit.)
For those who asked:
Everett did not go to Petsmart on Friday with the rest of the Peppers because there were only two cages available, and three kittens of the Peppers’ size cannot fit in one cage. When one of the other Peppers is adopted, Everett will go to Petsmart to fill the space they left behind.
Try to relax, Chuckles.
Seriously.
You make me so tense.
Bug watchin’.
Patty was following Jake down the hall, trying to rub against him, and he stopped and turned around and looked at me, like “Make her stop.”
SPANKY!
“What you want?”
Nevermind. Go back to sleep.
“::sigh::”
