So I'm on today's Oprah show!

You all should watch.

The show today is about world records...and I'm in the third segment, as one of the 100 people in bubble enthusiast/expert Fan Yang's soap bubble. I'm wearing jeans, patchwork Uggs, and a black tank top with a purple cardigan over it. My outfit doesn't match. But I'm right in the front center, next to my friend Ryan, who is gorgeous and has red hair and a green shirt. The show is pretty interesting, even without me. =P

For instance, the two segments before the bubble one (which is actually somewhat lame in comparison) are a woman in a suitcase, and a dog carrying on its nose a full glass of water up some stairs. And somewhere in the show is a woman with a 15 inch waist.

You should watch! =]

Today on Oprah! I don't know specific times...just whenever Oprah is usually on in your region.

[Edit: In case it wasn't clear, I am in the front row IN the soap bubble, not the audience. We had to be there at 5am this morning. But they gave us breakfast, so that was cool...and free books.]

Well, I hope you had a good time, but that sounds too much like a freak show.


...as opposed to other days on Oprah.

Hah, I suppose slightly so (in terms of the freak show). The dog is adorable, though. =]

I'm sorry... Can't help it. It's "waist." Not "waste." (And you've already edited your post once, so I assume it's not just some random typo...) You go to Northwestern? :-P

AAAAGGGHHHH! Fan's on another show!

Thank you for clearing that up, Erika...I was gonna say, that's pretty nasty. I wouldn't want to show that on national television.

Mythus: LOL! God, that would be gross... :-P

Total thread jack--

Erika you were at the Ovation Awards? My friend Terra was there too this year! :)

Responding to (and therefore perpetuating) the threadjack: Yes, I was actually a nominee this year (Featured Actress in a Musical). I didn't win, but I had a great time. Was your friend Terra nominated for something, or was she just attending?

"patchwork Uggs"

Oh, Sweeeeeeeeetieeeeee.

Posted: 1/30/08 at 3:06pm

Hah, no, you know...those little mindbugs that happen once in a while.

I swear, I know the difference between waist and waste! Don't tell me things like that have never happened to you.

And, about the Uggs, Namo...I used to HATE them when I lived in Florida. But they're actually incredibly comfortable.

Not an Oprah fan here but I will check it out. Read about this. Can't see it this afternoon but can see the late night re-run.

Oh, Ryan? Well, if you watch the show...I'm sure you'll agree with me. Well, not SURE, I suppose. But he's pretty damn attractive.

Theatre major. Straight. Can sing well, I've heard. Very gentlemanly. Great smile! =]

lovelyspotlight: Hey, around here, you never know. Glad I was mistaken about your malapropism.
