Carrie McCoy...Come on Down!

Ok. So I never actually heard those words. And I have come to the realization that I won't ever hear them from either Bob Barker or Drew Carey. And I am okay with that. Disappointed, but okay. I mean after going 3 different times and giving up a whole day to stand in line from 4am till 3pm, I figure I can accept the fact that CBS made a huge mistake by not choosing me, but that is something they are going to have to live with.

Earlier this month, my sister, brother, and 5 friends joined Sam and I on a little get away to California. Included in our trip was 2 days at Disneyland and California Adventure Land as well as a third day at a taping of The Price is Right.

I thought that since this was my 3rd attempt at getting called down to Contestant's row as well as my 30th birthday that I had a good chance. Also, a friend of mine made shirts for us to wear.

Everyone's shirt (except my own) said "I'm with Carrie on her 30th Birthday" and mine said, "I'm with Carey on My 30th Birthday!" Mine also had a nice large picture of Drew.

And the guys especially loved the hot pink color. Not really, but they got over it. :)

Even though no one from our group got called down, we all had a great time. At least that's what the producers told us to look like they we were doing when they took this shot of us.

A wise man once told me that "it's not all about you" but on this day...it was!



And come to find out, I am not the only one that is slightly obsessed with the show. A few of my companions, who shall remain nameless, actually Tivo the show! And quote it! And talk about the crazy contestants that get called down. And practice jumping up and down in case they were to get called down.


It was a very memorable trip with friends and family
