I ARE STUPID

Hi.
My name is Angelia.
I'm the founder of NCOS.
National Committee of Stupidity.
Or my mom or grandpa would say that I have a bad case of the stupid.
Last night I was watching the 11:00 local news, when I heard that my favorite author of all time was at one of Greenville's bookstores for a book signing.
That's right.
NICHOLAS SPARKS
was approximately three miles from my front door.
And where was I?
Sitting on my thumbs at home doing NOTHING!
My friend Tenisha said I was the perfect ad for ATT&T.
That one day I would look back at this and laugh
or CRY!
(A lot like that fan of Michael Phelps)
So when I found this out, Tenisha looked up on his website to see where he was scheduled to appear next, she discovered he was going to be in Charlotte, NC.
That's an hour and a half from here.
For those of you who know me, you know that I would have driven up there and not thought twice about it.
But with the gas shortage and the price of gas if you can find it being what it is, I decided against it.
But could you imagine having a first edition autographed copy of one of today's most popular author's?
(Sigh..)
Until then...

Not so much "stupid" as just unaware......and yes, it was just like that AT&T commercial. Bummer!

I'm actually reading my first book by him now, and I'm enjoying it. I've seen the movies, of course, but this is the first time I've read one. I'm reading "True Believer"...or at least I think that's what it's called. It's in the other room and I'm not going to get up to go see. =/

Any more teeth falling out?

The question about the teeth was about Shelby, by the way...... =)
