(S)he's making a list....

Work is taking me to Portland tomorrow...so I'm busy getting ready for the trip. However, I have to post something, lest I let down the 5 faithful readers of this blog. OK...there are a few more than 5 of you. And I'd hate for anyone to have to resort to actually working during the day, so I'll do my best to entertain you, although it'll have to be short and sweet.

A fun fact about me: I am a list writer. Big time.

I write my to-do list at work, I write packing lists for trips, I write shopping lists, lists of places I want to go, things I want to do before I die....you get the idea. Don't be fooled, though. I'm not one of those super-organized people. In fact, that's why I write the lists - if I don't, I'll forget something super-important. Guaranteed.

Anyway, Sister gave me the coolest gift for Christmas this year. It's a little book called Listography: Your Life in Lists. It's honestly one of the best presents I've ever received (she's really good at finding the perfect gift, by the way). It was designed to help you "create your autobiography through list making." You know I love anything that caters to the lazy person, but that's just one reason why I'm loving this book.

Here are a few examples of the kinds of lists they ask you to complete:

The most memorable friends from your past
The strangest places you've had sex
Things you're glad you did
Your biggest fears
All your past hang-outs
Your most drunken moments

See? I told you it was cool.

So here's today's topic: Famous People You've Encountered

1. Hall & Oates - before a Mardi Gras parade
2. Fred Savage - ditto (I was in jr. high and thought he was super cute...H&O, not so much)
3. George Strait - in a hotel elevator
4. Buddy Ebson (Uncle Jed) - in a hot tub (LONG story...)
5. Henry Winkler (The Fonz) - in a hotel in Providence (he was a JERK!)
6. Mike Modano - he was in a video we produced at work, I made him take a picture with me
7. Nikki Sixx - at a book signing
8. Nando Parrado (Alive was based on his story) - he kind of hit on me (or maybe he was just hungry...)

What about you?
