Stuff Like This Never Happens to Me

Stuff like this never happens to me. Look at the email I got from my friend Jenn...

Hey, I have a cool story to tell ya...remember a few weeks ago I was telling you how I wanted to go to the Coldplay concert? Well, yesterday after school I took Kayla to the zoo and on the way there, happened to switch from the cd I'd been listening to to the radio and heard them say they were going to be at an undisclosed location later passing out 98 boxes of girl scout cookies...1 of which had 2 front row tickets to Coldplay in it. I thought, that's cool, I might even go by just for the cookies if they were on my way! So, we got to the zoo and forgot all about it. We got back in the car to come home and they were live from Edmond Kia on Broadway Ext. with about 40 boxes of cookies left. So, I decided since that was actually on our way, if they were still up for grabs when we got to that area, we'd run by. So, we did and there were about 10 boxes left. Kayla picked the only orange box left on the table-DoSiDohs. And guess what was inside...that's right, I've never been to a concert in my life but I will be front and center for Coldplay. I was so excited, everyone was screaming and I was trying not to cry and look stupid!!! Then they took our picture for the website and put me on the radio which was weird because they were broadcasting live so I could hear myself on the huge speakers at the dealership with about a 10 second delay. It was crazy and Kayla was a little freaked out but apparently she's got a lucky gene...we're planning a trip to Vegas in the near future!!!

I heard this and I heard them interviewing her. I had no idea it was her. I was going to do it just for fun since I already have tickets but when I heard they had 40 cars trying to turn into the dealership I decided against it. But you are right...stuff like this never happens to me either.

That's awesome, Stacey! Scott and I are actually going to see Coldplay in Dallas on Sunday night. I heard they put on a great show. I'm sure it would be even better in Vegas!
