So last night I went with my older sister to a Raiin Wilson book signing in Mountain View. For his book "Soul Pancake"
It was so crowded in that little bookstore that I couldn't believe it, on top of that as soon as we walked in I knew that there was someone in the crowd that forgot to put deoderant on, but crowds and deoderant issues are to be expected I guess. Otherwise it was good.
I was a little disappointed at all the chaos, becuase we're short people and couldn't see a damn thing when he was talking. He was a nice guy, very friendly, and I learned a few things that I didn't know.
I of course didn't buy a book ahead of time, but my sister did, so she got hers signed. I wasn't to concerned about it at the moment, I'll just borrow her book when she's done with it and read it.
In a way I wish I had bought a book, I might go buy one just for the hell of it, I'm curious about it, heard it's a good coversation starter, and has some really good insights.
Anyhoo, then after getting through the masses of people standing around not knowing what to do we made our way back to the car, and went to In and Out.
That was ok, I had a cheeseburger and diet coke, knowing that I just ruined my diet... just have to keep on keeping on with it. The same fight. I was slightly disappointed in my cheeseburger too.. It wasn't cooked all the way. That's happened at a few In and Outs, it only bugs me because I've had burgers cooked that way make me sick before, so I'm a little paranoid about it.
After that we went home because she had to go to work. All in all it was a good trip, my sister was happy, and very excited to not only have her book signed but neet Raiin Wilson face to face. She even wore her Shrute farms hoodie. It was cute. When we were waiting in the line to get the books signed she had an unvoiced look of concern, probably worries about saying "Hi' to him. She has a tendency to say something stupid when she meets celebrities, or forget her name. All went well though. The excited look of wonderment on her face when she walked away from his table with her book signed, is all I needed to make me feel satisfied, and say "Yes this was a good trip."
