8/10/08 We meet Matt Hardy in Binghamton, NY! IT WAS AWESOME!!!!! :)

Meeting MATT? OMG! He is the nicest, sweetest guy in the world and he smells soooooooooooooooo good! We got there early, waited in line and it was so worth the wait. He met me and my son James first, gave him a high five and asked his name so he could put it on the picture we printed out for him to sign. James is only 6 and was surprised that Matt knew how to spell his name, LOL! Matt took it all in stride and even posed for pictures. Then I had to spell my name for him, which he still got wrong, LOL, but he corrected it very quickly and all is well. When you look at the pictures you will see James is wearing a shirt that offers his annoying sister for sell. Matt even asked him if how much. I told James to tell him to make on offer on either one of them.

He noticed the photos were from his MySpace page and asked if we were friends, I told him, "Oh yeah. I couldn't decide which picture I liked best so I took all the ones of you and Lucas and put them together." He seemed to like it. :)

Then I did something that my daughter Ellie said not to, but I couldn't help myself. I pulled out two little packets of mustard, you know the little ones you get to put on your burgers? I signed one for him and asked him to sign the other one for me, LOL! I couldn't resist!

Then my girls came up and they were so excited! And again, Matt so so nice and sweet.

And he did throw out the first pitch and did it quite well. From the mound right over the plate! WOOT!

Later we went to the arena and watched as the wrestlers arrived. I don't have all the pictures set up yet but Matt and Jeff did drive up and I got a shot of Jeff as he was going in. We didn't get to go to the show :( Just couldn't swing it with the money this time around, single mom, three kids, money can be tight but the day was still so worth and meeting Matt was the highlight of my year! I have to change my MySpace page because Matt was on my list of people I would like to meet and it has happened!

When Ellie and I got home we had to watch more of the Hardy Show and we were laughing our heads off because of the difference between the Matt who is in front of that camera compared to the Matt who goes in the ring compared to the Matt we met at the ballpark. He is a wonderful person who can pull off just about any thing I swear, smart, sexy and smells good, DAMN, if I was 20 years younger and about 80 lbs lighter, LOL! ;)

We talked about how we wanted to see him when he was supposed to come to Elmira but his appendix burst and how Ellie knows that pain, he even asked her about her surgery. Then we talked about Jeff supposed to have been in Albany but got suspended and then his house burnt down and how if this somehow fell through today that I would have to seriously hurt someone, LOL! :)

Thank you Matt for some wonderful memories! You are the king!
