Come To My Window

August 28, 2008

This week has sure flown by. Already done with day 3! We started the day off by figuring out the schedule for the night. We arranged for me and Robbie to go in from 7-9. This allowed us time to go to our new traditional lunch spot. “Old Chicago” is a great restaurant located right outside of the Pepsi Center. Our waiter Corey was very welcoming and we sure enjoyed him. Robbie even made a point to get pictures with him!

 Once we got into the center, we were very disappointed by our opportunities to get on the floor…or should I say lack there of. We walked all the way to the blogging room in which you can exchange your hall pass for a 30 minute trip to the floor. Once we got there; however, we were told that not only were they all out of the floor passes for the time being, but the floor had been closed for the night.

 

Robbie and I still went up to use our hall passes, which would have been great…had there have been any open seats. Robbie and I had no where to go except walk around the center. All hope was lost when suddenly, I noticed Melissa Etheridge! Now, words can not describe how excited I was to see her. I was speechless! Ever since I was about the age of six, I had listened to her song “Come to My Window” over and over again. I only had a quick moment to speak to her, but it w as great to hear her enthusiasm towards the Democratic National Convention!

Today was another great and eventful day! Can’t wait to see what lies in tomorrow!
