Dear Ms. Blog,

It's been a while since the last time we talked. Well, I've been very busy getting "Clayed" What's Clayed you asked? Well it's expression about being sung to by a gorgeous hunky red headed crooner that hails from North Carolina.. Oh, his name is Clay Aiken by the way..:)

Which brings us to my "shallow thoughts" and the word of the day..Serendipity!!

Serendipity means making a fortunate discovery by accident! :o

During my travels to see Clay at his concerts.

Serendipty happen to me on July 28th..

I met Nick...:)

And here's the Story...

WELL, REAL QUICK IT WAS HILAROUS HOW I MET NICK...LOL!

IN A SPACE OF HALF HOUR I SAW NICK 4 TIMES..

THE FIRST TIME WAS VERY FUNNY,

OKAY, I'M IN THE HOTEL ROOM RESTING BECAUSE I HAVE IBS AND I HAD AN ATTACK!

ALL THE SUDDEN, I HEAR BOISTERIOUS LAUGHTER AND RUNNING DOWN THE HALL, WHICH GOT ME TICKED OFF AND I HAD IMMEDIATLEY WENT TO THE DOOR TO GIVE A PIECE OF MY MIND AND NICK IS RIGHT IN FRONT MY DOOR AND HE SMILING AND SAYS " HI, HOW YA DOING? AND WITH ME IN TOTAL SHOCK, ALL I COULD MUSTER UP WAS A VERY VERY MEEK "HI" AND SLAMMED THE DOOR IN HIS FACE..

THERE I WAS SHAKING LIKE A LEAF KNOWING THAT NICK WAS ON MY FLOOR AND MEANING THAT CLAY WAS ON MY FLOOR TOO.. I WANTED TO CALL MY FRIEND MEESA BUT SHE WAS AT LUNCH AND THEN I CALLED DUDLEY5(LINDA)

AND LINDA TOOK CONTROL OF SITUATION BECAUSE I WAS SOO IN SHOCK.. I WENT QUICKLY DOWN TO THE LOBBY SHE WAS DIRECTING ME TO GO TO THE BUS AND WAIT..

MY FRIEND IRENE AND MYSELF SAW NICK AND MARY COMING OUT OF THE BUS....

AND WHAT DO I? I TURNED AWAY CAUSE I DIDN'T WANT HIM TO THINK I WAS STALKING AND RUN BACK IN THE HOTEL..

LINDA CALLED BACK " GET BACK TO THAT BUS" LOL! SO, I WENT BACK AND IRENE TOOK A PICTURE ME WITH THE CELL MY HAND RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE BUS..

THEN LINDA INSTRUCTED ME TO GO BACK MY FLOOR SINCE SHE THOUGHT CLAY WOULD BE LEAVING SOON..

AND WHO'S RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME WAITNG FOR THE ELEVATOR?

YEP, YOU GUESS IT!! IT WAS NICK.. I FINALLY SPOKE UP " HI NICK IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU AND WE SHOOK HANDS!! IRENE, NICK AND MYSELF WERE IN THE ELEVATOR. AND I WAS ACTING SO SHY ( YEAH ME, BLUBBER MOUTH CITY COULDN'T SAY A WORD ) IRENE WAS DOING MOST OF THE TALKING AND SHE ASK NICK TO TAKE A PICTURE WITH ME. AND HE WAS SO NICE AND FRIENDLY, HE PUT HIS HAND AROUND MY WAIST, HE SMILED AND IRENE TOOK THE PICTURE. HE PRESSED THE FLOOR BELOW, AND SAID" OH, I GOT TO GET TO MY FLOOR. AND HE SMILED AT US AND LEFT...

SO, IMAGINE OUR SURPRISE WHEN WE OFF THE ELEVATOR AND NICK WAS RIGHT THERE AT THE FIRE ESCAPE WE ALL LOOK AT EACH OTHER LIKE" DEERS IN HEADLIGHTS LOOK" THEN HE HAD THIS BIG BIG GRIN ON HIS FACE.. RIGHT THEN, LINDA CALLED AGAIN ON THE CELL" AND THEN I GOT THE BRIGHT IDEA IF NICK WOULD TALK TO LINDA, I ASK AND HE WAS SO NICE TO OBLIGE AND TALKED TO LINDA HE WAS LAUGHING AND GRINNING THE ALL TIME... HE HANDED THE PHONE BACK TO ME AND I HUGGED HIM THANKING HIM FOR DOING THAT.. AND HE HUGGED BACK.. HE'S SO HANDSOME UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL!!

AND IRENE SAID "TO TELL CLAY, WE THANK HIM FOR BEING A GREAT IDOL, AND HE REPLIED " HE WILL" THEN HE STOPPED HE SMILED AND SAID " I NEED TO KNOW YOUR NAMES SO I CAN TELL CLAY!' WE TOLD OUR NAMES.. HOPEFULLY WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE PUT ON THE STALKER LIST" LOL!!

SO, WE WERE ALL TOGETHER WALKING AND HE " I HAVE TO GET MARY" YOU KNOW HOW IT IS." AND WE WENT RIGHT TO OUR ROOM...

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT MY ADVENTURE WITH NICK!!

And if Nick should happen to read this blog..
