First of all, the best, most fantastic thing that happened while we were there.....I met Joey McIntyre from New Kids on the Block. (Sorry Theresa, the wedding was great, but.... :) I was in a bar (and yes, I was a teensy bit intoxicated) and saw him pass by the window, so I went running. We had just seen NKOTBSB in concert the night before, so I knew that it was him. I ran out of the bar screaming, "JOEY!" and he stopped, turned around, and said hi. Then I realized that he was also with Jon from New Kids, so I told them how great they were the night before, and asked if I could get a picture. They said sure, and me, being the responsible drunk that I am, left my camera at our condo so that it wouldn't get lost or broken. So I went running back into the bar, screaming "I NEED A CAMERA!!!!!" So my alarming screams sent everyone running outside, and Mary had her camera and got my picture made with my favorite New Kid. So then, as they were about to leave, I gave Joey a hug and a kiss on the cheek, and then of course as he was leaving, a little pat on the butt (I had to....I will never get a chance to do that again!) So then I texted my husband and told him I kissed another man, and apparently it irked him a little bit, until I mentioned that it was Joey McIntyre, then he just kind of rolled his eyes and said, "Well, you could have told me that before!" After that we went out, had a few more drinks at Pat O'Brien's, a really, really good talk, and then headed back to the condo.
The next day was the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, which was a lot of fun, except for Blanche yelling at Eric the entire time, and that was pretty funny. Blanche was what we were all calling the guy running the show at the church, but his name was really Kevin. Everyone knew his name was Kevin, except for Eileen, who, on Saturday, kept calling him Blanche!! The wedding was beautiful, and the reception was great, and we all had a great time.
And, oh....my other claim to fame was being proclaiming myself the residential creeper in as many pictures as I could this weekend. I'm a little concerned because I am sure there are going to be lots of lovely pictures popping up of me sometime soon!!
