I just learned today that Price Is Right is coming to Little Rock!
This is a bucket-list kind of event. A friend wrote me on Facebook to tell me they were coming: it made her think of me and our dreams of going together for our eighteenth birthdays. For those unaware, only eighteen & older are admitted into the game show. Only I never made it to California at age eighteen; it’s as though they are coming to find me.
In the moments of opening Google to determine the dates, my eyes started to water and I was stuttering in excitement to tell Stephen we might be there for it!
But they weren’t able to find me. They are coming 13 February, and I fly into Little Rock just a month later.
“SO CLOSE,” I said.
“…And yet so far away.”
Noooooo! So sorry! I know you’d love it!
Oh! I’m so sorry you won’t be able to be here! I know you’ve wanted to be part of the show for years. Where there’s a will, there’s a way…
So sad! Sorry you’re going to miss it!! I guess that will have to remain on your list for now…
