Oh, And One More Thing
So, I spent the day going to class, riding my bike, eating pizza. The usual business going on around here, you know, the eating and studying and sleeping.
Oh! Except there was that one more thing.
Did I mention the hanging out with President Bill Clinton? Oh, well, there was some hanging out with President Bill Clinton.
There was some President Bill Clinton shaking my hand. Or, more precisely, there was some Bill Clinton shaking Will's hand while I kind of just touched Bill's wrist. But there was some touching of Bill Clinton.
There was some Bill speaking. There was some me listening from the VIP bleacher seats.
There was some me asking Bill Clinton if he would sign my constitutional law book and some Bill Clinton telling me that, sure, he would sign it and bring it right back.
There was some of that, which I'd call, oh, the HIGHLIGHT OF MY YEAR. Did I mention that?
OMG! Janet, that is SOOO cool! What a great inscription from Bill Clinton! BILL! CLINTON!
I'm not so sure that I'm a huge Hillary fan, but I've heard from everyone that comes within a few feet of Bill how absolutely charming and smart he is...
WOW, a family heirloom!

holy crap! That's awesome! How did you get the bleacher seats?? Mr. Clinton must be a fan of SoPink, eh? xo

See, now I bet that this experience makes going to law school and having to buy that constitutional law book worth it, right? What would you have had him sign, otherwise?

That is SO cool.

Oh I so miss Bill. For some reason I'm not that keen on his wife. But I do like Bill.

I do believe that Bill showed up just to be there in case you were there. He took a chance, an he scored. He got the opportunity to sign your book. Good job Janet!

OMG! I'm in love with your new layout, btw!!
You know, I never really paid that much attention to politics during the Clinton administration (4th-12th grade for me), and I don't really agree with the whole cheating thing, but I have to say, the man has charisma!!

I love me some Bill Clinton. Not in a Monica way though.

I completely have a crush on bill clinton. In the way that I would probably get all giggly and nervous around him because he's so charming and powerful...I'm jealous you got to touch his wrist. hey, is that his phone number under his name? score!! ;)
Posted by: Jen | January 16, 2008 at 04:50 PM
O.M.G. Seriously. Did you just pee your pants? Is he just as charming and wonderful in person as I think he would be? Does he smell good?
And lucky you had your book there or you'd be posting a picture of your autographed boobs on the internets.

awesome!!! If you ever get sick of that book you can send it to me, since nobody would know it wasn't mine :)

How exciting, Janet! It seems like an understatement to say this, but that must have been an awesome experience. :)
Posted by: Zandria | January 18, 2008 at 08:13 PM
That is the coolest thing ever! I am a huge Bill supporter, more than Hillary. I have wanted to read his book for the longest time.
