Give up?! Fine, give it a couple more guesses.

No, I haven't decided to move to Arizona.
No, I haven't taken leave of my senses.
Are you done guessing, now? Good. Here's the news. The big news. The amazingly fantastic news. The unbelievable news. Hmm. That's too much of a build up. Need to tone that down a bit. Um, yeah. Here's the scuttlebutt:
I'm going to be on TV! Yay!!!! When we did that impromptu taping back in July we got to talking with the producer (I think she was the producer) about this new craft show that didn't have a name yet. They were looking for folks to demo things on the show. I got a number, gave a call, created a pitch and I'm in baby, I'm in! I tape on September 13 so of course I will be eating nothing but one celery leaf per day until then. But just in case I don't, remember, the camera adds 150 pounds.
There is no link to the show on the site, but I was given this name: Craft Lab. But since it's not on the site, it may just be a working title. Sorry, I've gotta go hire my entourage now....
Wow - that's fantastic! I can't wait.
I'd like to volunteer for your entourage. I've always wanted to be someone's people. "Have your people talk to my people."
Very cool news - worth the wait, even! Congratulations!!
