Deanna and Condi Rice

[DrummerDeanna]

Well I gotta say today was one interesting day.

It started out like any other, already dreading going to work, mostly because I hate the whole 9-5 thing....I was bitter, also, because I am suffering from lack of sleep and just wanted to sleep in.

Well, I'm at my computer this morning when Juan Williams comes over and asks for my social security number and date of birth...I'm confused by this request...but figure..hey, it's Juan Williams, he won't rip me off...

Well, later I come to find out he's interviewing Condoleeza Rice, in her office at the White House and he decided to take me along!

So, I went to the West Wing today....sat in Condi's office...all that good stuff...got to sit in on the whole interview.

Then, Juan took me on a tour of where the press hangs out at the White House, I met our WH corespondant, Don Gonyea....and as we were leaving the press started heading outside. Juan asked why and they said the president was about to leave....so we went along.

There I am, in the garden right outside of the oval office...like we could see into the oval office...and then the big helicopter lands....THAT was cool...except I nearly fell over from the wind....then here comes Bushy...

there weren't a tremendous amount of people there so when he passed me he looked right at me, I was unresponsive, then he smiled and waved, I thought it would have been innapropriate to flip him off...and wasn't convinced he wouldn't have had me killed had I done that, I went ahead and smiled and waved...then he boarded the helicopter and off he went....

Very exciting day for me indeed....just thought I'd share
