THE HAPPIEST OF DAYS!!!


I was super sleepy, but still awake, when my phone buzzed. Miss Artiste (michelle) was calling from Chicago. At one point, I was going to go, then Coachella trumped that hand. Anyway, she was drunk. And not expecting me to pick up. So I surprised her into a conversation.
"Jack McBrayer is here."
"Ahh!!! Tell him I said hi!!!"
"I will. I'll try. It's loud and crowded."
Then we hung up. Just knowing that my friend was in the same room was enough. Then Molly came home. Then my phone buzzed again. It was Miss Artiste. And my heart of hearts knew. No Big Reveal necessary. Jack McBrayer called! I got to talk to him on the phone!!
Him in his voice: "Hi, I hear you like comedy improv. I do, too."
Me in my Jack McBrayer voice: "Yeah. That's swell of you to say."
He laughed. We chatted for a sec, then I let him get back to the crazy party. But not before telling him he was my improv crush and the whole reason I wanted to be a Den Mom.
"I'm sorry I couldn't come to PIF this year. But I'll be there next year!"
Yeah you will.

Poor guy. He's going to have a restraining order against me before we even meet.

I effing talked to Jack McBrayer!!!
