I wanted to blog today about how Calf Fry let me get a Bucket List CHECKMARK this year today....because tomorrow I'm going to be having a short rant about the bad side of this year's event.
But, happy news first---me and my fabulous foursome all reunited in Stillwater to attend the yearly ritual/national holiday of Calf Fry.
I do love checking items off of the bucket list! You might wonder what my item was:
TAKE A PICTURE WITH A FAMOUS PERSON.
TAKE A PICTURE WITH A FAMOUS PERSON.
See, one of my Oklahoma Girls works with a wonderful woman who dates a guy named Alex, Miranda Lambert's lead guitarist. When Oklahoma Girl said I might get to meet him, I was super excited, but a little on the fence about whether he qualified as famous.
Sure enough, his girlfriend was kind enough to get him to come out and meet us. He was super nice and really funny. Then, randomly, I learn that he used to be the lead singer for Honeybrowne. I try to play it cool, but completely freak out because I LOVED Honeybrowne, especially their song "Texas Angel."
Anyway, at this point I know that he qualifies as famous for sure and I'm dying to get that picture...luckily, his girlfriend is a saint and she offered to take one for us! She also got us all guitar picks from him....how great is she? And for all the talk I hear about what jerks band guys are, I can assure you I'm not a believer. This guy came off his bus to meet four girls he didn't know and chatted with us for half an hour before his show, posed for pictures, and got us guitar picks.
Anyway, another Calf Fry is in the books and I have a Bucket List checkmark to prove it!
