Matt and I watched the American Red Cross's charity auction tonight. It was pretty okay. Annie Lenox seriously rocked the house, even though she was singing so hard that, at one point, she visibly spit on her piano. I forgive her.
So there were all these celebrities taking phone calls. I was idly thinking how it would be really cool to be able to blog about talking to George Clooney or somebody. It wasn't until Jay Leno said something along the lines of, "If everyone watching right now pledged just one dollar, we could possibly raise millions," that I picked up the phone. Don't get me wrong--we've donated. But I do know that so much more is needed. That, and I could maybe develop a meaningful connection with Danny DeVito or something.
So I called, and to my surprise, someone picked up the line quickly! I thought, "Woo hoo!" And the guy identified himself as Craig. Craig who, he didn't say. Anyway, I made my pledge and hung up, and Matt and I got to wondering about which Craig it could have been. (Although we both know it was probably Craig Schwartz, CPA/Red Cross Volunteer from Topeka, Kansas. Or someone equally as unfamous.) But we thought maybe it could be Craig Sheffer. Okay, not very cool. Or Craig T. Nelson. Or...well, we ran out of Craigs. Oh well!
