That night I Was slightly freaking out because I live 2 hours away by bus and if I wanted to get home in time it might not have been possible to attend the Karaoke function at the Toronto Hobbystar convention, but my wonderful mother said she'd come down and pick me up thus giving me a chance to attain Karaoke funness! Anyways there was some drama I'll skip it. When I finally got in there was fun to be had. Everyone's right. Andy is absoultely great. He's a sweetie. It's all about the social graces he obviously is gifted with. He's funny, free with the hugs!:)
But I really think my shining happy moment for that entire weekend was singing with the wonderful man. I got bumped up a little cause I asked and I had to leave by 12. I got to sing after this woman had sung The Rose by Bette midler, she did this beautiful job but peeps kept talking and not listening so I Was kinda getting nervous that I Wouldn't be given my respects... u know what I'm saying? decided to sing Natural Woman by Aretha Franklin, partly cause I knew Andy would really like it and partly knew cause I'd do a job I could be proud of when singing it... I didn't even get through the first verse before he wanted to jump on stage. :D ( and so my diabolical plan goes into action!!! ) He asked very politely if he could be back up and of Course I said "Yeah!" but I felt kinda bad, cause I kinda ignored him when I coulda sang with him. :,( When it was done he put his arm around me asked me my name said he loved that name a-a-nd gave me a kisss on da cheek! Much perkiness was had and I was burstin with much happiness as I left with a treasured memory. Treasured!
He also sang Sinatra's I did it my way and there was a line chorus and slow dancing and you could just feel the fellowship/community in the room....
Anyways It's not that much of a perky story but it was all good nonetheless... :)
