All in just a couple of hours

I took a little break from my writing today
and THIS is what happened....





The commenter who most closely guesses what REALLY happened...or most creatively suggests what MIGHT have happened, will win the prize to beat all prizes.

Only me, people...
Only me.

I only hope you had THREE hot dates! Go, go, you big hot dog!

jamie said...

I'm learning so much on your blog. Are you serious, you can get ticketed for not changing your address?! I'm going on a year and a half with my old address on my DL. I guess it's time to make the change!

Gwen said...

You met Ricardo Montalban's son..........THEN you met an actor who I have been RACKING my brain, trying to figure out WHICH movie/TV/ I've seen him in....It's going to bug me all day now !!!

And then you were pulled over - obviously because this cop wants a date, because how the heck would HE know your address on your license hadn't been changed - right?

Love you Laurel !!

Unknown said...

OH I'm so jealous. LOVE HIM!

Your fortune cookie had told you that someone new was coming into your life and it came to pass. You went on a date with a hot guy, later that day you met his father, and then he (the hot guy) prepared a little stunt in which a police officer pulled you over. The police officer said, "You've broken this man's heart and unless you marry him, you're under arrest. Then he made you sign a contract promising that you wouldn't sue him.
Congrats!

Laurel gets up early. “Another boring day ahead” she thinks to herself. She looks in the mirror shakes her hair playfully and says out loud to no one in particular “at least I have great hair.” After getting ready for the day she heads out the door knowing that she will have to stop at the court house to pay her previous traffic tickets. As she walks into the lobby she is stopped by this man. He looks faintly familiar and she resists the urge to run her fingers through his dark curly hair. She is surprised by her thought and reminds herself that it would be unseemly. The attractive man asks her if she is the woman in the Patene ProV hair commercials. Laurel smiles, she gets this all the time. She shakes her head so he can admire her shiny locks. But he still asks for a picture and she obliges him.
He is no sooner gone when she hear a voice from across the room. “Lorelai” she hears. Could this man be shouting at her? He is, so she turns around and shouts back “Laurel”. He is confused and says “I would know that hair anywhere, you ARE Lorelai.” After a brief photo shoot and a long explanation that she is indeed Laurel and not Lorelai Laurel pays her fine and runs out the door. She is now really late for work. No sooner does she pull out of the parking lot than she sees in her rearview mirror the familiar flashing lights. Not again. She just paid the fine. She rolls down her window and he asks for her drivers license. He smiles and lowers his sunglasses so she can see his beautiful eyes. She asks what she could have possibly done wrong. He winks and hands her his ticket book. “I think your address isn’t correct on your license, could you please provide your current address”. Laurel obeys and hands back his metal clipboard. He smiles again and says “I think you forgot your phone number”. She looks at him quizzically and he adds “can I call you tonight?” She replies “of course you can”. Before he leaves she finally asks “why did you pull me over anyway?” Again he winks and says “it’s your hair – I have just never seen a woman with more beautiful hair.”

The first guy was obviously looking for a new leading lady in his next Broadway show. The second guy wanted to meet you because you totally do look like Lorelai Gilmore (great hair, by the way!) And then the cop pulled you over because he wanted an excuse to get your phone number. Seriously, could your day have been any more perfect???

Steph said...

The first 2 are professors at school. The officer pulled you over for speeding but let you off with a warning on that...but then gave you a ticket for not having your current address on your drivers license.

DeAn should write a book - great talent DeAn!

I am dying to know the whole honest to goodness chain of events in this hilarious (maybe not to Laurel) scenario. There was a time in Jamie's life (your cousin Jamie) when she received so many tickets that the judge took her license away and she couldn't drive for a year (sorry Jamie for spilling the beans), but fortunately for her, she went on a mission and there were no cars to drive in Uraguay........Um, is that why she chose to go on a mission? (just kidding Jamie). We know it was simply fortuitous that the timing between the judge's decision and your decision to flee (er, serve) matched up so perfectly.

So, Laurel, how many tickets does this make for you all total in your life and especially this past year? You just might have broken a world record?!

Richard! Gilmore! Richard Gilmore!

It is too much! I can't even bring myself to guess.

Beth Blair said...

The second guy is Edward Herrmann from movie and television fame. Most recently in episodes of Grey's Anatomy and Gilmore Girls.

I want to say the first guy had a recurring role on 'The Fresh Prince of Belair' but I am not positive.

Now as to what you were doing to be in the same room with all these folks, are you perchance filming something??

Amander said...

You are too funny. I LOVE that you met Richard Gilmore! If only Lorelai and Rory had been there - sigh.

And your picture with the police man is hilarious.

Jill Manning said...

I have no idea but know you, this is going to be really good. So crazy, I just barely started getting into Gilmore Girls through re-runs and just this morning I was watching that man on t.v. and here is in on your blog...what a lucky girl you are. I can't wait to hear the story, don't wait too long!

I don't know of anyone who gets more responses on their blog than you do Laurel. For heavens sake, doesn't anyone have better things to do? I guess not, including me! I absolutely love your blog Laurel - way too funny and clever!!! Oh, and the cop? I will guess he's an actor like the other two men and you have set us all up to look like fools. Please, please tell us you didn't get another ticket!!! Can't wait for the real story.

Once again, your Aunt Linda

Brian Stokes Mitchell and Edward Hermann!!! I am so jealous. I've never heard that cops voice, but I could be lulled gently to sleep listening to Brian singing or Edward reading the Bible... Or anybody reading the Bible.

The first picture is your father, the second is your grandfather and the third is your uncle Lloyd. This hanging around your groupie police officers has got to stop. Now!

Gwen said...

Remember how you met Richard Gilmore??!!

I would have squealed with utter delight!

Stephen T said...

You are SO lucky. You met Brian Mitchell Stokes and Edward Hermann when they arrived in Salt Lake City to rehearse for the Tab Choir Christmas concerts. You met them as part of your job and discussed the book and CD signing that was to take place Friday evening after the performance, sponsored by (my home away from home) Deseret Book.

As for Officer Friendly Millett, you must have been speeding again. You gotta watch those WVC police. They will get you every time.

I agree with you about 'I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day.' I was in tears when the Choir finished the hymn. And I have never liked it before. (stefteller@hotmail.com)
