Trespassing

It's been a crazy exciting day around here as one of my Willow colleagues was "surprised" by Ty Pennington and the gang from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition this morning. Let's just say it was the worst kept secret in Pekin. Even the KKK rallies of the '60s that took place here were more hush-hush. When my own mom runs into Ty on the street the day before it's not like it's exactly being kept under wraps. No matter, it's a really amazing event for such a caring family. I've gotten text messages and voicemails all morning from people giving me up to the minute accounts of the action. Feeling left out, my third grade colleague Jeff and I ran over by Steve's house today during lunch. There was a side street that was blocked off but we thought it just meant for cars and such. So we're walking down the sidewalk when we pass the catering tent where all of the other designers minus Ty were eating lunch. We couldn't get through all the way so we hopped a fence (or four) and cut through some people's yards only to get busted by ABC security which escorted us all the way back to my car. I think we narrowly escaped getting arrested and I think this ruins any dream I had of being a guest star on Pushing Daisies.
