That's almost as good as an actual introduction. You still got to see her as a real person.<br /><br />(I once got to see UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown in person for an interview at the Edinburgh Book Festival. I thought that was pretty cool, but he's nowhere near as amazing a person as Michelle Obama is, so I can't come close to your coolness. Now, if you'd had a chance to see Hilary Clinton, too, that would've been the epitome of spiffy.)<br />:)The English Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14982031308501442156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7934748494063751240.post-86407371351389135552011-05-28T11:07:12.269-06:002011-05-28T11:07:12.269-06:00It was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, English Tea...It was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, English Teacher. I didn't actually meet Mrs. Obama, but I got to be in the same banquet room with her - I was a true fangirl. ;-)Paigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03768987070515984309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7934748494063751240.post-56500983999940607402011-05-27T22:32:58.094-06:002011-05-27T22:32:58.094-06:00Wow.

My thoughts exactly! Last week was so much fun for me because all of the people we spent it with were ...well...fun! For me, the best part of FLL isn't going to the luncheon itself (though this was a particularly festive year) but, rather, introducing my friends to my "other life" in DC and watch them fall in love with the sights, sounds and characters that can't be experienced and/or don't translate on a guided tour or on TV. With that as a marker for success, I think that last week was a WIN! haha. We'll have to think up an excuse for a return trip soon since we barely had time to scratch the surface...Jacquelyn Ortonnoreply@blogger.com
