MY FAMOUS DAY

First, off HAPPY BIRTHDAY DR. SEUSS. Today is Read Across America Day. I started the day by doing a live interview on a local radio station, 1033 Kiss FM with Chad and Hooker in the morning to promote Read Across America Day. I was super nervous, but it was really fun. Later those two DJ's came and read to our students at South and answered questions for them. It was pretty cool. Now they want to come back on Friday and do some sound bites of our students and hang out during our good grades party. It is going to be a blast!

Now for the best part of the day- I FINALLY MET SOMEONE FAMOUS!!! We heard through my connections, that Guy Fieri from Diners, Drive-ins and Dives was going to be in Boise filming today. So after school, we sprinted downtown to see if we could see Guy. Sure enough- there he was filming right on Capital Blvd. in Boise, ID!!!!! He was filming at Bar Gernika down on the Basque Block. We went and watched them film for awhile. When they took a break, I was taking a picture and Guy invited me over to come get a picture with him! He was really nice! Super cool "Guy." We talked to him for a few minutes about my job, etc. Really down to earth! He is going to be in Boise all week- going to a hockey game, filming at West Side Drive in tomorrow. Famous people really do come to Boise!!! It was awesome!! What a great day!!!!!!!!!!

We are really jealous. He looks skinny in your pictures. Was he slimmer than he is on tv?
