O.K...this is so funny to me that I have to share. I just finished watching the Oprah episode. There was one shot at the first commerical break that should have gotten me on TV. As I paused it and looked at the studio audience I was so confused. Where I thought I was sitting there was a women in a pink shirt. I wore a black turtleneck. I thought maybe the angle was throwing me off. Maybe I was in the next seat over. But that woman was clearly wearing white pants. I was wearing jeans. It was then that I realized that a man was sitting in the upper right corner of the studio audience. That chair had been empty during our taping. Someone had gotten ill and had to leave right before the show and there wasn't anyone to replace her. I laughed as I realized...they superimposed a different studio audience into the shot! They had to! Next to us were four blond haired women who were all wearing the same black shirt and beaded necklace (worthy of a blog entry in itself). But in their places I saw a woman wearing a bright orange shirt. I was digitally mastered out of the Oprah show!

The Oprah show I attended will be aired this Wednesday. Tune in to see my television debut. Honestly, I will be shocked if Robbin and I make it on camera. We were sitting behind Meg Ryan all the way in the top row of the studio. I'm right at the top of the aisle. Probably my best chance for TV fame is I got a little teary-eyed at one of the videos they showed about how the children in Uganda are suffering. They always catch the crying people. I think I yawned once too but I doubt they would put that on the air.
