I flirted with a Cowboy. I didn't even think about it as I was doing it. And I amused and entertained him!
I told Aiken Ayodele, one of the Dallas Cowboy's badass linebackers that for all that Tony Romo get's all those comments about his dimples, HE's got a pretty nice one, himself! He smiled, then he laughed. He was charming. DeMarcus Ware and Brady James looked on and got a good chuckle out of it. I've got a feeling they're gonna tease him about it. But that's okay...because when I pointed out that we both have one dimple only, he looked up at me and said that I had another, smaller one, on the other cheek. It was pure entertainment.
My annual visit to my personal Mecca has been very pleasing, indeed. On Friday morning, when we arrived, we rented a car and drove out to meet a real estate agent and look at a few houses. We even found one we liked. It had 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2 car garage, a formal dining room as well as a casual one, and an entertainment room along with a formal living room. We will be starting work on our house to prepare it for the market when we get back.
After looking at houses, we checked in, I crashed out in my hotel room...I was a tired Kitty Kat. I'd been up since about 4:30 am. This hotel is pretty sweet because it's the same hotel that the Cowboys players stay in the night before the home games. So the next morning I went to breakfast, then checked in with our tour. After that, as I was standing in line waiting for the shuttle for my stadium tour, I heard someone call my name. I turned around, and it was Darcy from work! It turns out that her husband had surprised her with tickets to the Cowboys/Pats game for their anniversary. He's die hard Cowboys, she's Pats. And he booked his package with the same people.
We toured the stadium. This time the stadium tour included the locker room. I got to get my picture taken sitting at Tony Romo's locker as well as Jason Witten's. I followed that up with a driving tour of the new stadium as it's being built...and got some cool pictures of that as well. I trekked to the Cowboys Outlet store, bought more stuff...then headed back to the hotel. Yesterday afternoon I met Nate Newton, Ed "Too Tall" Jones, and Everson Walls and got their autographs. Nate was cranky when he first got there because he was hungry...LOL! The minute he saw Mickey Spagnola he turned into his normal, charming, funny self. Everson Walls was so classy and sweet. I've always been impressed with the man...since I heard about him giving up his kidney to save the life of his teammate. He didn't even think twice about it.
Later that evening I got to be a part of the Radio Road Show where Mickey interviewed DeMarcus Ware, Nate Newton, and Aiken Ayodele. We also got autographs from DeMarcus, Aiken, and Brady James. I've even got a picture of me with these three guys.
Today, of course, is gonna be the best part. The Cowboys Game!!! I can't wait to go! I have pictures of everything...and look forward to this afternoon. I'll be the girl screaming like crazy...seats around the 10 yard line. This should be an amazing game.
When my trip is over, I'll be posting pictures.
You DO realize you can't move before the Great St. Augustine Trek next spring, right? Okay, so long as THAT'S settled.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a wicked cool tour (grin), and may the team who plays the best today, win.
Personally, I'm still suffering from 11th inning-itis; and it's very warm wearing BoSox,Pat's AND Jags teeshirts. I think we'll have to lunch at Beef O'Brady's, so we'll have sight of all the games. Have fun, Kat!
Sunday evening:
ReplyDeleteGood game, Kat. I looked for you in the stands, but no luck!
It was a great day for me all around. Better luck next time!
((()))
I may not have been thrilled with the end results of the game, but I did have a blast this weekend...overall...and I lost my voice cheering for my 'Boys. And yes, I do realize I can't move until at least after this spring trip.
