Yep.... she lives 2 hours and 1 minute from me. The other lives 10 minutes away. My heros aren't any big celebrities. They don't live in mansions, they aren't rich, and they don't drive Porsches. They're two oridinary people... the best people you could ever have in your life.

My CELEBRITY hero...I have YET to meet...but I will...and when I do...we're getting a hotel room...and y'all can figure out for urselves what happens after THAT.


*cries* Ewaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan...

:lol: I posted that before I IMed you on AIM...still though YOU ARE SOOOOOOO LUCKY!!!!!! I know you'll be on Cloud Nine for a looooooooooong time :D I met my hero five months ago in May and I'm STILL on Cloud Nine :D

That would be me on the left!!! yeah mhm! i win!

*squeals*

:woohoo: Awesome Amy!

I love her on Trading Spaces. That is great!

Never got to meet mine, unfortunately. From the time I was a little girl, I considered Bill Bixby my hero.

AHHH Amy, that is so awesome. I am so happy for you. I have a few new hero's...that are alive...maybe i will get to meet them someday.

my friend's pregnant - she already said if it's a girl she's gonna name it Genevieve.

Mind if I ask why she's your hero? She's certainly my favorite designer on that show, but hero? Not really ;)

I suppose it's hard to explain. She went to the same school that I want to go to, majoring in the same thing that I want to major in....She's just an all around good person....

I dont really have a hero. I have tons of role models that I'd die to meet, though.

That makes sense - proud of the hometown girl :) Kinda how I feel about Greg Kinnear (we're both from the same pathetically small town in Indiana ;) )

No I haven't!:crybaby:

I wouldn't say he's my hero....but I admire him very much. And no, I haven't got to meet him. I would love to meet Dave Grohl. He seems like he would be a real fun guy.

Oh yeah...I forgot to say.....Congradulations on meeting Gen! She is the best designer on that show. I know you're probably still on cloud nine.

There are *counts* 4 people I want to meet. I have to meet.
Ron Howard
Conan O'Brien
Henry Winkler
Clay Aiken

Seeing Clay in concert and being 5 feet away from Conan on his show doesnt count. They need to aknowledge me. I would do anything to meet Ron Howard. OMG Id seriously black out. Its my mission in-life to meet him, or atleast be within camera taking view of him.



YAY AMY!! :triplets

I got to meet my heroes: Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver on May 3rd, 2003! :) Has anyone on here ever heard of them?
:wave: DLQSfan
