I think I was pretty well-behaved during the limo event on Wednesday, but I did have one privately experienced moment of kooky Kate-ness during the drive.
At one point towards the end of the afternoon, I put my sunglasses in my purse and when I did, I was reminded that I’d brought Post-Its and a Sharpie along. (The reason I had Post-Its and a Sharpie in my purse is uninteresting and irrelevant, but I’d like to be clear- I never had any intention of asking anyone for an autograph. I miiiiight’ve been hoping that Ted Black would let me put a Post-It on his lapel that said, “Hello, My Name Is, Monsieur Homeslice Sir Rocks-a-lot,” but I digress.)
Anyway, I saw these Post-Its and I suddenly had a perfect vision of what I would do with them if I were living in “Kate’s Whimsical Dream World” instead of “reality.”
For a few brief seconds I daydreamed about surreptitiously taking out the Post-Its, writing a big “C” on one of them, quickly slapping it on Vanek’s jersey, and then before he realized what was happening, I’d take a picture of him.
These are the types of things that flash through your head when you’re riding in a limo with Thomas Vanek.
Lol – that would have been amazing (though probably kindof really super awkward immediately afterward).
Hey, I just read your last 2 posts, this is amazing. I’m so happy they picked you and Heather to do this. I think this was the absolutely ideal choice, because in my opinion, your blogging style fits perfectly for this type of event. I’m VERY impressed by the way Ted Black and the Sabres seem to embrace your way of covering them. I think it shows A. a great sense of humor, and B. a very good taste too! :p
