This reminds me of getting my car sophomore year.

How did I ever go to an event without press credentials?

Free admission, VIP seating and access, super-friendly security, accommodating and eager staff, and the utmost courtesy even from the bigwigs who are otherwise curtly rude and/or dismissive to everyone else. The awesome power of those words, "She's press," man. People make phone calls, listen, offer you amenities, want to shake your hand and introduce themselves - it's fantastic! And the ones who were gonna mess with you hold up their hands and take steps back when you flash the laminated rectangle. Respect the badge, yo. Press corps represent!

Ahem. So, yes. It's the only way to fly.

Oh, let me assure you that I'm looking forward to repeating the experience as soon and often as possible. It's like being important, only without the usual responsibility that accompanies it. *g*

Were'd you go? Hummmmm?

The Florida Invitational Step Show at the Odome Saturday night. Good times, and if you're so inclined, you can read all about it as the Alligator online exclusive tomorrow.

Definitely will do.

And I have a newspaper related question. I forgot to pick up Friday's Alligator and there are some articles that I really want to read out of it. I know that it's offered online and all that, but is there any way I can get a hard copy of Friday's paper?

I snagged a hard copy for you at the office tonight. Just let me know when we can run into each other (not that that seems to be a problem lately), and I'll get it to you.
