you know how people ask you, "if you could meet just one person before you die, who would that be?"
for me,
gene wilder.......a.k.a. Mr. Willy Wonka :-D
tomorrow, my dream is going to come true!!!! he will be in los angeles doing a book signing. now i know how book signings go, you stand in a long line for hours and get rushed through as you walk past the book signer at the table. you usually don't get to say anything to them beyond, "thank you" as you are shoved along in the line. but i plan on doing my best to not only say thank you but to spew as much as i can as quickly as i can, through my tears...yes, tears....i am already crying at the thought that i am going to finally see him in person...up close.... to look into those magical twinkling eyes of his. my biggest hope is to get to take a picture with him....not one with me on one side of the table and him on the other but the two os us together. i am going to bring my golden ticket too..... i am sure i wont be able to get him to sign that but i'm going to bring it anyway, after all, this is a once in a life time thing.........i've waited a long time for this........ i dont care if i get kicked out of the bookstore, i'm going to try with all of my might to get my picture, to talk to him for more than a second and maybe, just maybe.....get my golden ticket signed.
i'm sooo excited!!!!! i must get ready. I have so little to do and so much time.....'strike that....reverse it'......
