Canada, get ready for Reid!
Reid's going to Calgary with Jesse, Mike Stag, and Kip on October 24th. Maybe the JB tour needs to dust off the bus and finally set sail to sweep up those jilted hunks. Maybs. :)
I can't host more than one guest in my small home, but if you can find a way to come to Calgary for Oct 24, you'd be most welcome to stay with me and attend the Women's Show and go meet your man.
I am inviting you first, as I think we'd all love to see you two together somehow, if only for a few minutes. Perhaps if others wanted to come to Calgary, we could make plans for a 'convention'. I'd LOVE IT!! BBBB Party at Ann's!!!!!
I am currently scheduled to work that weekend, but I might be able to switch to get the day off. I have to admit I wouldn't mind to get a closer look at Jesse and Kip. You can have Reid all to yourself and I'll run interference for you, with the likely hoards of women who will be swarming and drooling.
I'll have to figure out how to take video with my phone and make sure to capture you 'stepping out of the limo' and the look on Reid's face. I could do some sleuthing and see if I can find out anything about where they might be staying and hanging out. I must know someone with connections at the show, although Calgary is home to a million now. At least I could get us tickets and know where to park.
I am serious though. I'd be thrilled to meet any of my wonderful BBB friends and try to show you a little of my city. I have no family here, so it won't be quite a complete home town date. You won't be subjected to any evil stepmothers or goth siblings. Just one somewhat uppity cat.
Who knows, if we had enough people to call it a Fan Club of some sort, maybe we could even get the guys to make an appearance. Regardless, it would be so amazing to meet.
Fingers crossed someone will join me. I'd hate the responsibility of being the sole reporter. I'll have to do some explaining to get the day off - I'll have to 'come out' about my secret society with my new workmates. But for Reen it'd be worth it.
What do you say? Is Calgary our first get together? RSVP BBBB!!!
How are you?!?! So super glad to hear that the new gig is workin' for ya. Awesome.
So, yeah, Reidalicious is on his way to you. Nutso :)
Thanks so much for the invite. Wouldn't it be awesome if we all could convene in Calgary? Seriously. Awesome. I'll need to check out the hospital sched. They like to steal any chance for me to have a life ;)
Knowing myself, I'm more apt to hang out at a pub or coffee house where they might visit than actually interact with them. I'd rather be that casual observer in the corner, mug in hand, eyes watching over cup's lip, seeing if he and they really are who I think they were. :)
If only pesky work didn't get in the way and we could all convene in Calgary for a Reidfest!
I'm convinced one day we will all meet. Ann, the next time I'm visiting relatives in Calgary (happens once every few years), I'll take you out for a coffee.
Ann, you'll have to be our roving reporter and give us all the details...
Leen, in the unlikely event that Reid is chosen as the next bachelor, I'M SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION ON YOUR BEHALF.
Ha! M, you're hilarious. Sadly, I fear it's too late for my application. I think the lot has been chosen. But, for the entertainment of the BBBs, I woulda done it. Could you just imagine my face when interacting with everyone? I'd be running CONSTANTLY just to escape and de-stress.
I'd either 1) be ditched in epi 1 2) ask to leave (and not come back....EVER) 3) be the final one. I'm glad we'll never, ever know. :)
Ohhh that would have been fun - although not to see the guys but to meet everyone here.
Meeting in real time is a good thing - right??
Ann have a great time whatever you end up doing that weekend. I understand the new Bachelor will be announced on Oct 13. Please don't let it be Reid - I don't want to watch. I just want to read Marianna's recaps and enjoy yapping with everyone here!!
Leen,
