Dave Barry thinks I'm a Goddess

I <3 Dave Barry.

Last night Alex, Corey, Min, Caleb, and I saw Dave Barry speak at the Biltmore about his new book, Dave Barry's Money Secrets: Life Why is there a Giant Eyeball on the Dollar? As always he was extremely funny. Afterward we all got a copy of the book signed by him. I didn't read it until I got home but he wrote:
For Jessica, a goddess - Dave Barry

I think it'd be funny to get a shirt that says "Dave Barry Thinks I'm a Goddess." That would be random.

In other news, yesterday afternoon The Samantha Foundation received confirmation that Mr. Barry himself agreed to be the MC for its Inaugural Golf Tournament and Silent Auction! w00t! While he was signing my book, I mentioned that I was a volunteer with The Samantha Foundation and he automatically jumped, "Oh yeah? I'm doing their event next month..." It was cool.

In related news, I'm recruiting volunteers for the golf tournament. I need people all day - from 8 in the morning to the night. If you or anyone else you know is interested (even if just for a shift of sorts), have them get in touch with me. Also, if you or someone you know is interested in attending the dinner (or the actual golf outing), you can sign up online. There are a bunch of really cool items that will be Silent or Live Auctioned or raffled. Everything from trips to autographed books to really expensive sunglasses to cool sports memorabilia to a private clinic with The Miami Heat. Spread the word and come to the event! It's going to kick ass! (Plus, you can be entertained by Dave Barry!)

books/reading, good days, friends, the samantha foundation
