Answered an 818 Area Code

A few fun facts about myself: I do not like answering numbers I do not know. Well even numbers I do know I tend to avoid because I don't really like talking on the phone. But this morning was an exception. A back story might be needed so here it goes. About a week and a half ago I was just moseying around on the world wide web. Found myself on Ellens website. Checking out past videos and I thought to myself hm.. I've checked a thousand times before and there have never been any open tickets but what the haiiiil. And there was! There were three open days. So I texted my friend Meredith with the fastest texting fingers I have ever used. Which is annoying because then I kept messing up because I was in such a rush. She texted me back in exactly a minute which felt like a million years and said yes that her and her mom could go that day as well. I was so excited and put me, my mama and them down. Me being me, optimistic and just the thought of hey there are open days why would we not get them. Oh also I kinda feel like I may have good luck on winning/getting things. For example like calling in to radio contests and winning a couple times. So I'm like hey this is pretty set in stone, super excited. So I submit and then I read that if you do not recieve a call within the next 2 weeks you can reapply. Alright so a week goes by. I get a weird area code calling me. I was so excited because I thought it was Ellen calling to tell me she wanted me to watch her film her show. But no. It was an annoying sales college person calling for my little sister. First of all, no. Why would she give them my number? That is SUPER annoying. And second of all I normally don't answer weird numbers and now I am stuck in a call with this weird sales person and I am so angry because I had my hopes up for my girl E calling. (BTW Norm said she never gave my number out it must have been my dad, my dad replies with, I don't even know you number Jana. Awesome.) Back to my point. It is now Tuesday morning and I'm not gonna lie I was getting a bit discouraged. Why would they have 'dates open' if they didn't want people to sign up and get those seats filled. This is a cruel joke do they not have some sort of system that says 100 people applied and there is only a 100 seats, switches date to 'date filled'. It doesn't seem like brain surgery. Then at 11:57 AM my frown went upside down! My phone lit up with an 818 area code number and the clouds parted and the sun came out. Just kidding it's still cloudy and cold here. But anyways this lady asked to speak with Jane-uh.. close enough beezy.. and asked if I would still like to attend the filming of The Ellen Degeneres Show on May 15th. Abso-damn-lutely lady!! I was really excited and tried to play it cool but at the end of the conversation I told her she had just made my day and she laughed and said we'll see ya soon. May 15th, soon? I guess it is about 11 weeks away. What will I wear? What dance moves will I bring to the show? What if I get picked to play a game? What if Channing Tatum decides to dance with me? What if she gives away MacBook Pros this day of filming? Golly gee wiz. I. Can. Not. WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
