Yeah, I met the MASTER!!!

I promise I will finally talk about my vacation to Yosemite...but this post just can't wait!

Thursday night Adrienne, Paula, Dawn, Melissa, and I went to UCLA for the Breaking Dawn Concert!!! It was amazing!!! Justin Furstenfeld from the band Blue October was there singing acoustic renditions of some of his songs that inspired Stephenie Meyer while she was writing the Twilight series. He was so good!!!

Here is how the evening went...when we got there, Adrienne and I sat down on the floor and Paula, Dawn, and Melissa went up to the balcony. We really aren't mean...we could only get 2 and 3 seats together...and since Adrienne and I are the biggest freaks over the books, we got the floor. We saw the Reading Rainbow guy sitting a few rows over from us...he was there with his daughter! Very cool! Then Justin came out and sang a couple of songs. Then...OUT CAME STEPHENIE MEYER!!! She was so cool! Very down to earth...just like us...except rich and famous and an amazing author, of course! She answered a bunch of questions...very insightful! Then Justin came back out and she talked about certain sections of the books, and then Justin would sing the song that corresponded to that part of the book! It was amazing!

After the music was over, we were able to get our books signed by Stephenie! AND...yes, let's call it KARMA...the balcony got to go first! So...while everyone else only had to wait in line for 20 minutes to get their books signed...Adrienne and I had to wait for and hour and a half! It was well worth every second...I must say!Here it is!!! And NO...I'm NEVER lending out my copy of Twilight again! (Thanks to Melissa not bringing her own book, I got my copy of Breaking Dawn signed too!!! So...I'm not lending that one out either...sorry!!!)

After the book signing, Adrienne, Paula, and I found our hotel and spent the night in Hollywood (sorry folks...those details are "in the bubble")...and then went shopping on Friday at The Grove! It was so much fun!!! A very much needed girls night out!
