Last month, I entered this contest to see J.K. Rowling at Carnegie Hall. The prize? Two tickets to see her read, answer questions, and sign books. This will be her only public event, and tickets couldn’t be bought, they could only be won.
I also entered Mike, because he’s been kind of lucky lately.
And it’s a good thing I did, because HE WON. HE WON. WE ARE GOING TO SEE J.K. ROWLING NEXT MONTH.
. . . Sorry, I keep getting loud every time I talk about it. We are clearly an excellent team, because I entered and he won. That’s a binding contract, right? He can’t try to take someone else, can he? He keeps threatening to take someone else.
We had a big night last night, seeing Wait, Wait . . . Don’t Tell Me at Wake Forest. I continued with my stalking of public radio figures by having my picture taken with both Mo Rocca and Roy Blount, Jr.
Mo had on a really sparkly shirt. Really. Sparkly. This picture does not accurately show how sparkly it was.
Dwight also had his picture taken with Carl. Apparently Dwight loves public radio. Who knew?

Such fun! [And only y'all would take a Dwight bobblehead to such an event.]
That is Mo Awesome.
That shirt was CRAZY sparkly! (and I love how that girl behind you in the picture looks totally jealous of you and Mo together – hehe)
my dwight bobblehead shipped and is on its way!
also, i need to start listening to NPR, because it seems like i’m missing out on some cool stuff.
This may be sad, but… I think I am more jealous of you going to Wait, Wait than I am of JK Rowling. (Although both are pretty fabulous.)
Wait until we take Dwight to meet J.K. Rowling. That’s all I’m saying.
I can’t wait to hear all about the J.K. Rowling event – So incredibly exciting! Congrats.
Also. I can’t believe you not only went to Wait, Wait, but that you got to go with both Roy AND Mo.
I KNOW. Roy, Mo, and Paula is my perfect panel. I was very happy. Two out of three!
(Mike’s perfect panel is Roy, Paula, and Tom.)
