NYC Recap

It all started with tickets given to me by my friend MommyC! Here is my sister Lisa proudly displaying our good fortune.Never wanting to miss an opportunity to be on camera, I felt the need to show mine off too.Lisa tried out to be their go-go dancer for the morning, so she got a front row seat. Look at her gloating. At a commerical break. Note, I was not trying to get a picture of Kelly here. Anderson is in the background...hubba hubba.
Kelly cavorting with Lisa during a commercial...I can only imagine she is saying..."Me, 100 lbs? bite your tongue!!" Again, note Mr. Man of Incredible Hotness in the background. I'm pretty sure at this point he's looking into the crowd to find me.

One of the guests - The Donald! His hair is as ugly as you would imagine, yet he was a charming guest. Very funny dry sense of humor. Can't imagine why I would like that




The next shot should not be confused as a gratuitous picture of Anderson's ass. It is simply a shot depicting art in journalism.


I did ask out loud to the audience coordinator. (during a commercial) if Anderson would go out to lunch with us. I even offered to pay! I can't imagine why they said no. After that, it was all a blur...



Even the Tom Selleck segment, which I did not get any pictures of. I was too consumed with Mr. Cooper. Upon exiting the studio, we were greeted by staff from ABC. My first thought was that I would be arrested for harassment, then to my delight, we were given tickets to ANOTHER SHOW!!!
Guess which one? Guess who was the guest? Another super hot person who surely would want to hang out with us, right?
We got to go to The View!!
Rob Lowe was the guest!!!!!!!!!!
Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot hot!
He is an engaging and, how do I say it, a HOT GUEST.

My buddy, the warm up comedian from The View, Thomas J. Kelly, was kind enough to introduce me to the whole audience, and even gave out my Debland web address!
How freakin' cool is that?
I want to return the favor...go visit Tom at one of these websites
Not only is he hysterical, he is a nice guy.
After spending the whole day at TV shows, we ran out of time to do lunch and shopping. It was still worth it. We made a quick run to H&H bagels, Zabars, and for the best part, we went to Magnolia Cupcakes. Nothing like some unbelievable cupcakes to top off a great day! We had the following awesome flavors:
  • carrot cake with cream cheese icing
  • red velvet
  • devil's food with marshmallow icing
  • vanilla with vanilla bean icing
  • chocolate mocha
  • Anderson Cooper - mmm...that one was my fav.

It was a great day with great company!

I am SO jealous! I wanna go to NYC!

I wanna go with YOU to NYC!

Everytime I get to NYC, DH plans the day around the Yankees and that really puts a cramp in my style - you know cupcakes, drinking and celebrity-satlking.
