Wishing for Plinko, winning a dinette set and a daybed.
It's like that.

Jane Lynch Gets It!
Went to a book signing event for Jane Lynch's new book Happy Accidents and I gave her a copy of my book. I figured, why not? I debated handing it to her and saying, "That's $16." but I didn't. I debated telling her that I saw her on the campus of Smith College over the summer, but I refrained. I debated stealing one of the grapes that the bookstore had put out for her to nosh on but I was a little nervous and just rambled through everything I had calmly practiced saying this morning in the bathroom mirror.
It was cool to see her aaaaand, she got the concept of the title, which was nice!
Here's my awkward encounter. Why why why can I never keep my cool?
I don't know if she'll read it but I wrote on the inside that if she doesn't want to, she can give it to a buddy. But, I'm not sure she'll even read that, so...
Jessica Martin grew up on her family’s farm in Brockport, New York. She spent her formative years talking to herself in the mirror and memorizing lines from Full House episodes. She graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in Television, Radio and Film and that proved to be worthwhile in that she still enjoys all of those things. After living in San Francisco, New York, and Boston, Jessica has learned the importance of light layers, irony, and remembering how people take their coffee.
A fortune cookie once told her that she finds beauty in ordinary things, and she liked this. But then another fortune cookie told her that she liked horse racing and gambling, but not to excess, so she’s not entirely sure what to believe. She sort of thinks fortune cookies should stop pretending they know her so well.
Open-Eyed Sneeze is her first book.

Totally not awkward at all.
Don't worry.
(p.s. Really cool! Do you think she will read it? That would be so awesome!)
Thanks, Amalia:/

Oh, well. Just put it out there I guess.
Hope you guys are doing well!
I Love it! How exciting. You kept your cool a lot better than I would have.
