15 Seconds of Fame

Well, I'm just sure that my whole life will change forever because of the exposure.

I am, as of now, just a little bit famous...

I emailed THE 'A Thrifty Mom' this morning to let her know that our local Albies (that's Couponese for Albertson's, in case you didn't know ~ you know, all you little people out there!) was out of the Breyer's pints everyone wants. It's on sale and with coupons it is free.

I happened to share with her the deal I got this morning, and guess what?!

SHE POSTED IT!

As if that weren't enough ~ people commented!

And, Sarah (that's A Thrifty Mom's secret identity) stuck up

for me to one not-so-kind commenter!

Could you just DIE?!

So, I'm sure this means a book deal will soon be in the works. Oprah will be calling. The morning shows will fight over who gets me first. I will politely decline when the producer calls from "The View". Thank you, anyway!

I want you to know tho that I won't forget my roots, start dating

Jon Gosselin,

or even Harry Connick, Jr.

I won't buy $400 shoes (even with a coupon!) or be seen at

Jessica Simpson's soon-to-be rescheduled birthday party.

I will be the "cool" one who stays until every last autograph is signed.

Because that's the kind of girl I am.

I will remember who I am and this will be the story I tell when

Matt Lauer asks, "how did it all start for you?"

So glad you were here to share it with me!
