Almost Famous

Fairbanks Daily News-Miner

Look, Mom! My cleavage made the front page of the newspaper!

A reporter came to my apartment Saturday afternoon and interviewed me for a local spotlight on my website. How she got her editors to go for that, I have no idea. But she sent a photographer over on Sunday, and it actually made it into today's paper, so it must be true.

The woman at Safeway this morning asked if I really wanted to buy five newspapers. Really? All five of them?

When I insisted, she looked at me, really looked at me for the first time, and asked, "Are you the blogger?" I smiled and nodded my head.

I uploaded a scan of the article for all to read. Ms. Hart did get one detail wrong: Melissa's boyfriend survived the accident. Mom, rest assured your copy is in the mail.

My coworkers won't shut up about it, and one volunteer even insisted that I autograph his copy. One volunteer has decided to call me Bloggy McNerd. Can you just feel the love?

10 Love Notes

I can't beleive you were published, how exciting! Maybe the rest of us will get famos thru you. haha Congradulations!

WOW - you're famous. That's so cool! congratulations on a great article.

Ok, I'm jealous. ;) Congrats!

Granted I'm positive that the only way I'll ever get into the local paper is to be lead away in handcuffs, but that's probably beside the point.

That's awesome! It's also helpful that they explain what a "blog" is.

Oh I love that - I think I'm going to change my link to you "Rhapsodic" to "Bloggy Mc Nerd" :)

Neato!

That is so cool! Makes me feel all giddy just to know ya! =-)

Now I got to go dig the paper out of the trash - I missed that article (and most others as a matter of fact).

Congrats on your 15 minutes.

;^)

SA-WEET! What a kick ass article. You rock.

Oops! Sorry I messed up that part about the accident....
