THEY CALLED ME TODAY!!!!

#1 Post by TexasMommy » Sat Aug 23, 2008 12:58 am

I'm still in shock because I think I had convinced myself that they weren't going to call me! And just when I had quit sprinting to a phone to check the caller ID for a (212) area code the second we returned home from somewhere! I began noticing my "Millionaire" OCD tendencies were beginning to get out of hand when my four year old, looking very proud of himself, ran into the bathroom I was "using" one morning and thrusted me one of our cordless phones saying "You forget this mommy!" and my six year old, as we were all returning home one evening, practically shouted at my husband while pushing his butt through the door, "Move it, daddy! Mommy needs to get to the phone RIGHT NOW!" :oops:

Needless to say I'm very happy but irritated at having to wait until Monday to return their call! I didn't get the message until after 5pm NY time so now I won't know until Monday when my taping date will be.

I am very appreciative of the questions that have been asked thus far and their numerous helpful responses! I may be a "newbie" but I got here as fast as I could!

I may be short a PAF, so if you are possibly interested and will be available on the day(s) I need you (I will post the date on Monday), please PM me.

Congratulations! I'm looking forward to learning your tape date and adding more blue to the Audition List. --Bob

PAF's and babysitters both needed. I hope both are lined up. Good luck!

Congrats & Good Luck.

You know about the rules changes, right?

Please familiarize yourself with them, & try to watch a few episodes undern the new rules before you actually tape yourself.

CONGRATULATIONS! Isn't it exciting? I'll look further for an update from you about your tape date, but I'm wondering if we overlap at all. I'm taping on Sept. 9. If we do, perhaps we can meet.
