    I hate you.

    Well, not really.  I'm just ready to throw something at you, but only because I'm jealous.

    If it makes you feel better this is the only pic I have of her and me, and my bra is totally showing in 2 places. :P I don't care enough to not show it off though, haha.

    Um, no.  Not feeling better at all because at least you have a picture with her.

    Your pic is awesome!! I am glad you had a good time and I assume Canada treated you well?

    The TO event was amazing. I love DG. LOVE HER. I have decided I want to be her when I grow up.
    She was so nice and pleasant and funny. She totally kept her cool when the first person that went to ask a question kind of flipped out, admitting that she wrote DG a letter 2.5yrs ago telling her to hurry the F-bomb up with writting the f-bombing book before she(the questioner) f-bombing dies. The lady was a little old lady with white hair and so unassuming to look at. DG wad just like, "I am glad you are comfortable using those words, as I said I was raised very conservative and am not comfortable with them. But I have to point out that you didn't die."
    The lady was back in her seat by that point and yelled out "You want conservative?! I am a retired Catholic kindergarten teacher!"

    Other than that bit of entertainment it was awesome. I got up and asked a question, my sister and I both got pocket Jamies and our books signed. My pic with her is awful. I am bloated, breaking out and super excited like ateenage fan girl.

    Hahahahahaha!!!! She actually mentioned at our event that she'd had people comment to her that she needed to write faster because they were getting old. That's so funny that she was probably referring to the outburst from the night before! 

    I totally agree about her composure. During our Q&A session, one guy goes, "So, I haven't ready any of your books but..." And she was totally gracious when answering.

    And yes! Canada was awesome! :)

    ETA -- I can't get your pics to open. :(

    Yep! I see them now! You look great! I also love how in literally every picture she takes with a fan she looks genuinely happy and interested even though there are SOOOO many people at these events.
