MY BRUSH WITH THE BIG O

On September 8 @GuilianaRancic, host of E! News, put out a call from Twitter asking for questions you’d like to ask Oprah.  It was an amazing opportunity to talk to the Queen of Television, so I put forward some questions.

I like to think that @GuilianaRancic and I have some history.

You could say we’re practically BFF‘s, so it really should have come as no surprise that @GuilianaRancic would choose one of my questions to ask Miss O.

I’d kind of forgotten all about it until this morning I got this tweet from @ TashaAllenMVMT:

@gnomeangel hey i saw you on tv!

I had no idea what they meant.  I still really didn’t understand until @SimonProietto tweeted:

@GnomeAngel I just saw your tweet to oprah on e!

Well I’ll be… so I rang home and got HUBBY to tape E! News.  Low and behold there was my Twitter page on the big screen.

Oprah answered, and I’m paraphrasing, that there’s nothing her fame stops her from doing.  No surprise there really given that she’s the Queen of Self Empowerment and not handing control over to anyone else.

It amuses me greatly that this was the lead tweet on the screenshot of my Twitter account; guess my Protestant faith has gone global.  It’s also funny that my “Not happy Jan!” icon was still in place.  I’m just grateful that I wasn’t having a four way conversation with @AngryEliza, @Carly_B and @Alivicwil – who knows what kind of profanities could have turned up on the screen!

This is just another reason why I adore Twitter – it makes anything possible.
