Guess Who Got Tickets....

....to Antiques Roadshow?!  Yep -- ME!  I've been applying for years whenever they're going to be within driving distance, say, five hours or less.  This past weekend, they were in Indianapolis.  And I got the golden tickets this year!  (Any Charlie and the Chocolate Factory fans out there?)  I'm telling you, I was so excited, I couldn't stand it!  My fantastic sister flew up from Texas to go with me.  We were giggles and grins for weeks :-)  Man, oh, man, it was SO MUCH FUN!  What a cool experience!  I won't be retiring anytime soon on my treasures, but here's a good story for you.  My grandmother had what is known in the family as the Ugly Pineapple Bracelet.  It's this heavy, clunky, cool-as-heck bracelet watch that has what looks like pineapples dangling from it.  My sister hates it; my mom hates it; I love it.  Turns out that it's actually called a tassel bracelet (those are tassels, not pineapples, apparently, though it will forever be the Pineapple Bracelet) and it's worth its weight in gold -- literally :-)  (no, I'm not selling it).  The appraiser was so nice and she thought my sister and I were really funny.  We met some really nice people.  The gal in front of us in line brought stuff her uncle, who had been trying to get tickets for 15 years, couldn't bring himself because he finally got the tickets and he was too sick to come :-(  She was a doll.  All of the volunteers -- and there were 150 of them! -- were so nice.  It was just the best, most fun, terrifically exciting day.  But truly the best part, bar none, was getting to spend the day with my sister.  Priceless :-)
