Okay, so remember last week I told you that I had some exciting news? Well here it is:
First a little back story...
Some time last year, after I started my little blog, I had an idea. It was one of those ideas that came to me in the middle of the night when I couldn't sleep. Like in that half awake, almost dreaming, not quite reality state. It was a far-fetched, crazy little idea. After thinking about it, it kept me awake at night with this delusional kind of hope, like what if it could really happen? I was excited yet disappointed all at the same time. I never thought it could happen, I never thought I would even bring it up to anybody. I wished it could happen. It would be just about the coolest thing ever. But it was so unrealistic, so out there, that I just dismissed it after a while. It made me sad to realize that in all reality, there was no way it could ever really happen.
What was my idea, you ask? I thought that it would be really cool if I could interview Rob from Cause and Effect for my blog. See, I told you. Way out there, crazy idea.
I have always wanted to meet Rob. I would love to be able to sit down and talk with him. Although if the opportunity ever presented itself, I would probably be too nervous and intimidated in his presence to even form a coherent sentence, let alone interview him. I envision us sitting there staring at each other in awkward silence...
Anyway, lately this idea has been gnawing at me again. I've been friends with Rob on Facebook for awhile now, and he responds to my silly little messages. With his new album coming out soon, the timing would be perfect for him to promote it. What if I got up the nerve and asked him for an interview?
No. That's ridiculous. He'd never do it. I'm insane for even thinking of that. Why even bother?
But the idea kept coming to my mind. I kept dismissing it.
Yeah right. Like that's ever going to happen.
Last week I was feeling a little bolder than usual. I thought I would try to get up the courage and ask him, risking feeling incredibly stupid if he said no. I put together a little "sales pitch" and sent it to him.
And you know what?
He said yes!
What? Am I dreaming? He said yes? I could not believe it! Rob said yes! He is going to let me interview him! We are working out the details right now, but soon I will be able to post my interview with Rob. My interview with Rob! I still can't believe this is really happening!
There are not words to express how excited I am. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world right now.
Stay tuned...
