Hail to the Cheif (well, actually his wife)


Tonight was the annual Heritage Christin University Fundraiser at the Conference Center. Last year's speaker was Mrs. Pam Tebow. Tim Tebow's mother. This year, it was Mrs. Laura Bush. I was rescued and got to work upstairs in 360 instead of in banquets. Last year I swore I'd never work banquets again after that night. It was crazy. This year, however, we were very busy, but it was a great night. 2 observations... #1 I'm very unobservant. We were about 45 minutes into dinner service before I realized Mrs. Bush was already there. I think I even served her and had no clue it was her. Which leads to #2, she is very petite. She is very small in person, but absolutely gorgeous. Such a pretty lady. She was very well put together and sporting a fashionable teal suit. And from what conversation I heard, she was so stinkin' nice. #3 I'm not so certain the secret service has a sense-of-humor. And they aren't so secret when they introduce themselves as secret service. I mean, come on now, shouldn't that be a secret? I even know her code name now. I'm just thinking they should be incognito at all times. HOWEVER, they are incredibly intimidating when you get off an elevator with a pink Happy Birthday bag and they look as though 6 big men are going to pounce you and take away the bird house shaped like a frog inside. I'm just saying... :0)
