Poor Brad Paisley took a tumble while performing “Alcohol” on stage in South Carolina Saturday night.  He was sent to the hospital, but not before finishing the concert.  WHATTA PRO!!!  Brad was released the next morning and is doing fine.

"Tell the truth to meet me backstage!"

Can you handle the truth?  How about to see Jason Aldean BACKSTAGE at Mohegan Sun Arena on Feb. 25th?!

1) You AND your partner’s names and ages:
2) Your relation to each other (ex: husband/wife; girlfriend/boyfriend; brother/sister, etc):

Ever overhear a bad idea and want to intervene?

 I was grocery shopping Valentine’s morning, when I overheard two stockboys contemplating great gift ideas. The guy with his back to me suggested, “Why don’t you get her a stuffed animal and spray it with your cologne!” What sane woman overhearing this wouldn’t step in! Do guys REALLY think this is a good idea?! I had to dart a horrified “noooo” look at the guy accepting the idea.  I think I saved that poor girlfriend’s valentine’s day, and picked up awesome melons in the process :-b

My stereotype found me while I was trying to relax and have a non-DJ related night out for once.  I thought we were going out to eat; little did we know, a crazed DJ would turn our booth into a one-man gyrating club.

 Seriously.  He kept dirty dancing against our table of food.

  This DJ was not only trying to start a line dance around our tables while wearing a glitter wig, but he was also talking over ever song. 

First rule of being a DJ:  Hit the “post” of the song and SHUT UP!

I was so embarrassed for him, AND our profession. 

Who have you seen make your job look bad?

The Super Bowl Commercial You Didn't See

What do you think of the commerical?  Could you have handled it?

Carrie posing with the Grammy 3D crew:  Celine Dion, Smokey Robinson, Jennifer Hudson and Usher to rehearse the 3-D tribute to Michael Jackson.

I was on the fence all day to schlep to Target to grab my free glasses for the 3D Grammy tribute.  I think “the ways of NEPA” set in –especially on a cold day! — and I had a REALLY hard time justifying driving (as those born & raised here say!), “ALLLLLLLL the way the Wilkes-Barre!!”  Yup.  I knew this day would eventually come.  But congratulations to me for becoming an official local! 

Other than missing the 3D tribute (it was nothing more than a long blobby visual for me   …), I thought the performances were AMAZING!! 

Favorite of the night: PINK.  Hands down.   Her trapeze, Cirque de Soleil infused performance WHILE singing with a hand-held mic had my jaw on the floor.    Plus, I never thought a Pink song could bring a tear to my eye.  Beautiful.

Thank you to everyone that came out for “The View with a Scranton Attitude” at the Scranton Cultural Center on Friday.  It was a fun girls night out, with supportive hubbies/boyfriends in tow!    I have to profusely thank my husband, Ethan, for being a VERY good sport; things got personal!  At one point, I revealed that my biggest pet peeve is the exhausted (read: annoyed!) sigh your spouse makes…”uuuuuuh”; but it’s still better than being “turned down”  by snoring! 

I was going to send the clipping of The Times-Tribune review to my mom who was unable to attend, until I noticed they printed how I “finally finished writing [my] wedding thank you notes – after eight months”!!  Which is true, but my mom thinks they were mailed out 3 months ago!  Oh well, once my secret is exposed to  my mom by a finger-pointing relative (“…she FINALLLLY sent them!”), then I’ll be safe to send the article

Thank you to the amazing women of “The View with a Scranton Attitude”: 
Patrice Wilding of The Times-Tribune (intelligent AND beautiful!);
Evie Rafalko McNulty, Lack. Co. recorder of deeds (VERY funny lady!);
Laurie LaMaster of WNEP-TV (wonderfully embracing!);
Brenda Bistocchi of Bistocchi’s Restaurant (a very good time – check out her bathing suit pic on Google map!); 
Laurie Cadden, Moderator (simply sunshine, who’s smile lights up the room!)

  And thank you for everyone’s support at the show, and in spirit!  Stay tuned for the guys version in May!
