Yes, I am 31 years old

Some of you may think I'm joking when I tell you what I did last Thursday. You will also question how old I am. I was an extra on the new 90210!!! My wonderful friend Harmony ( in Illinois) and I were talking about the golden years of the original 90210, and she mentioned that her sister in law did some of the extra casting for the new show. I jumped right on that bandwagon telling her if they ever needed someone past their high school prime, that I would be delighted to be an extra. Okay, I will shout it from my blog- I LOVED/ still LOVE 90210! This was a 15 year old's dream come true. Okay, so it was 16 or so years later, but a girl can pretend she's 15 every once in a while right? Truthfully, I never really thought that my pipe dream would come to reality. However, last Wednesday Harmony called and asked if I would star, um I mean be a background extra for 90210. I called up Mike and after some teasing he agreed to take the day off work. (Thank you Mike!) I had to be in LA by 6:30 AM. It was about a 12 hour day, and my starring role will be wandering the halls of West Beverly High with a briefcase. You may be able to see me walk behind Jenny Garth in episode #111. Keep your eyes on the background people, I am there! I was a fun experience for a nerdy stay at home mom to have. I will remember you all at the Emmys!

I can't believe that Mike took the day off. You have a great husband!
