Mama needs a new pair of shoes

Tonight I auditioned for another game show. They didn't mention anything about restrictions for people who've been on other game shows, so I figured I'd go and see what I could do.

They were short-staffed, so the auditions took waaaaaaaay longer than they should have (I was there for nearly four hours), but I think I did pretty well in the three minutes I had to show them what I got. Perkiness has its privileges. I think they really dug the pregnancy thing when they asked me to tell them something cool about myself. They smiled big and asked when I was due. I totally played up the pregnancy card in my interview and the HUGE application I filled out. Em Dash needs a college fund! And a bigger place to live! Show me the money! C'mon!

The show is normally filmed in NYC, but they're filming some shows in LA early next month. They told me I did a good job and hopefully I'll hear something good from them soon!

I got to drive my shiny new car across town to the auditions, held at a hotel. When I got back to my car, I saw that someone had left me a note. My first thought was, "Crap! Someone backed into my car!" But when I pulled it out from the windshield wiper, it said, "People make mistakes dick! FUCK YOU!"

Um, jigga what? Jigga who? Honestly, I don't think that's meant for me. When I pulled into the parking lot, there was hardly anyone there, and no cars on either side of me. I was well-within my allotted parking lines. And as Brent noted, people don't usually call girls "dicks."

When I left, there was some big party going on at the hotel's restaurant. My guess is that someone at that party was pissed at someone else from that party, who happens to have bought a brand new car like mine. Or maybe someone parked really poorly next to me, and then someone else who parked on the other side of them didn't like the way they parked and left them a note about their crappy parking job. Then the offending parker thought I left the note.

Who knows?

I immediately checked my car for damage, like tire slashing or keying, but it appears to be fine. I'm not worried about some crazy stalker. Like I said, I don't think it was meant for me. Actually, I find it humorous because it sounds like someone was pissed for being reprimanded for their own stupid mistake.

Whatevs.

Congratulations on getting to drive your new car! The game show, I was guessing Wheel of Fortune by the "come on show me big money" line. Whatever it is, good luck and keep us posted!

Blogger Sizzle said ... (10:54 PM) : 

I am glad nothing happened to your new car. That would have sucked!

Hope you get picked for the game show!

 

Blogger Michael said ... (10:59 PM) : 

Good luck! The episode of the game show I was on is airing again this Friday. Or maybe next Friday. I haven't made a big deal about it 'cause I already put it up on youtube and blogged it.

Jigga What.

 

Blogger AmyWaWa said ... (11:16 PM) : 

LOL @ Jigga What, Jigga Who! I still use that line during times of confusion myself.

P.S. Thanks for the help with the planning of my sister and bro-in-law's trip to the big LA! I had actually already checked out the Marriott for them to stay at so we'll see what she says!

 

Blogger WeezerMonkey said ... (11:17 PM) : 

I love this show! I want to try out, too!

 

Blogger Roy said ... (5:29 AM) : 

Love the title of this blog, “Say it, don’t spray it”

 

Blogger doahleigh said ... (6:25 AM) : 

Jigga huh?

 

Blogger La Petite Chic said ... (6:28 AM) : 

Ha ha!! You handled that much more calmly than I would have. I tend to have an over-active imagination and would have convinced myself that I was being followed!

 

Blogger Andrea said ... (6:53 AM) : 

That is random. Glad you and your new car are OK. Gosh, if that happened to me while I was preggo I think I would have burst out in tears and called hubs. So glad that wasn't your reaction!

 

Blogger Felicia said ... (7:23 AM) : 

How bizarre and funny! At least your brand new car is a-ok. That would have been the straw on the camel's back after the whole car ordeal to begin with.
Talk about making your heart beat a little faster though. lol

 

Blogger dapotato said ... (7:45 AM) : 

hnh. glad the car (and you) are ok.

pregnancy. it's so hot right now.

 

Blogger boneramafreak said ... (8:09 AM) : 

ohhh I hope you get on the gameshow!! That would be so much fun.

Glad the car was okay!!

 

Blogger The Ex said ... (8:42 AM) : 

What's the other show you were on!!

 

Blogger The Rauths said ... (9:23 AM) : 

people are freaks...funny entry, needed the laugh this morning!

 

Blogger amber said ... (10:30 AM) : 

oh, i really hope you make it on the show. ::fingers crossed::

ugh about the note. definitely not for you.

 

Blogger Katelin said ... (10:49 AM) : 

oooh i hope you make password, that would be awesome.

and as for the note...weird. at least it wasn't a 'sorry i hit your car' note though :)

 

Blogger Pam said ... (12:20 PM) : 

that note was so random and crazy! glad the car appears to be fine.

good luck with the game show.

 

Blogger California Girl said ... (12:50 PM) : 

Haha! While I would've been scared at first, that is really freaking funny!

 

Blogger Writerjax said ... (2:58 PM) : 

yes i have to echo The Ex - what was the other game show?? :)

 

Blogger R said ... (3:06 PM) : 

Oooh! Best of luck on the game show!

 

Blogger Sugar&Ice said ... (3:56 PM) : 

You'll have to let us know if you make it to TV so we can watch!

I'm sure the note wasn't intended for you...or someone was just being silly by leaving a crazy note.

 

Blogger Suze's Sass said ... (4:35 PM) : 

I hope you and em Dash get picked for the show. Fingers crossed for you.

 

Blogger Yvett said ... (4:51 PM) : 

Good luck on making the show!


I'd have been freaked out with a note like that. I would think that maybe I cut someone off or made someone mad and they followed me.
My friends used to leave notes on my car on purpose to freak me out. Things like "I'm watching you". Yeah, they're not my friends anymore.

 

Blogger MrsTwink said ... (5:48 PM) : 

Holy crap! I would have FREAKED the f out and called The Mr to come be my backup from the crazy person obviously hiding in the bushes waiting to attack me.

 

Blogger Julie Q said ... (7:03 PM) : 

LOL i wonder if whoever wrote that note knew an innocent glowing and happy pregnant lady would be on the other end of it. What crazies!!

(but it does make for an excellent post!!)

good luck on the game show!

 

Blogger Cheryl said ... (7:41 PM) : 

That note just makes no sense at all...good luck with the game show!

 

Blogger wan-nabe said ... (11:00 PM) : 

people are stupid.

game shows are awesome.

hope you get called back!

 

Blogger Victoria Winters said ... (9:51 AM) : 

How freaky is that note!?

Good luck on getting on the show and winning moolah! Send me some if you win millions! ;0)

 

Blogger addy said ... (11:00 AM) : 

Oh! Good luck on the game show! My mom and I REALLY want to go on Wheel Of Fortune (I know, so silly) but I work in "TV" so I can't be on it - until FIVE YEARS after I don't work here anymore! Can you believe that???

 

Blogger Winnie said ... (8:32 AM) : 

Glad your car didn't suffer any damages! People are stupid.

 

Blogger Leslie said ... (1:35 PM) : 

People are weird. I'm glad your car wasn't damaged. I bought an Acura back in '98 and found out it had been keyed a month later. :(

Here's hoping for good results about the game show!

 

Blogger alyssa said ... (2:12 PM) : 

Yeah for the new car and the game show!
