.... it would be Sarah Palin. And guess what?? I got to meet her yesterday. Yep - that's right - I stood in front of her, spoke with her for a few minutes, and we hit it off so well that we exchanged e-mail addresses, cell phone numbers, and I'm pretty sure I'm on her Christmas list now. She promised to be my BFF, and she's already text messaged me twice today to let me know she misses me already.
OK, maybe that's a slight exaggeration. Since I can't get text messages on my phone (I live in the stone age), I don't know if she misses me or not. And maybe she didn't really promise to be my BFF. You don't think she was wierded out when I promised to be hers, do you?? But I *did* meet her, and she said she'd call.
Well... maybe she didn't say she'd call, in those words exactly. But I'm sure she will. We really hit it off! And I *know* I could get a Christmas card from her if I contributed some money to a campaign or something. She personally signs each one of those, after all. Well, maybe *she* doesn't, but someone who knows someone who knows her does. And that's just a good foundation for a beautiful friendship. I do have the picture I took with her, yesterday. She and I - a lovely pair.

Well.... maybe it's not *me* in the picture. Rather, it's a picture that she took with my brother-in-law, Chris, who actually, for real, seriously, I'm not exaggerating this time, got to meet her yesterday. (And who is also my current favorite relative, because he tried everything he could think of, trying to get me a chance to meet her, too)! (Bethany, you are a close second for calling me this morning to let me know about her rally tonight :). So, maybe Chris wasn't able to get a personal introduction for me, but he did gush about me to her when *he* met her yesterday at a fundraiser for Saxby Chambliss. I'm pretty sure she's going to try to e-mail me personally, later.
Alright, alright, so he didn't have time to tell Sarah about his great sister-in-law. But he mentioned me by name, so I'm pretty sure she'd remember me if I did run into her one day.
Well... he didn't exactly mention me by name, per se. But he *did* meet her, she *did* remember *him* when he saw her later, and he did say to her, "everyone in my family is a big fan of yours." That's MEEEEE!!! I am someone in his family who is a big fan of hers, and therefore, we connected last night!!! I'm officially considering myself to be a mere two degrees of separation from Sarah Palin. I'm also officially considering myself to be a wee-bit stalkerish.
Like I said, we're BFFs now!!!
