So far today is great!

It's Friday, I have lots of plans for the weekend and I met two of the most famous Canadians in the world today...

Gold Medal Olympic figure skaters Jamie Sale and David Pelletier!

Brad and I chatted with them on the air for a good ten minutes and they were so kind, funny, sweet and wonderful. I did a lot of research and it paid off! I bought Jamie a big pack of Twizzlers (her favourite candy) and David "The Hockey News" magazine (his favourite mag). They were so happy and grateful just for two silly gifts.

I am seeing them perform tomorrow night at the CN Centre. The GM gave me great seats so I'm taking Jessica with me. It's a one time event to air on CBC later on this month.

She's so small in real life! She's maybe 5 ft tall and so pretty up close! I love them!

In a way it was a bitter sweet moment. As soon as the interview was done I wanted to tell Mom so bad! She would always call me upstairs and we'd lie on her bed and watch figure skating, and she loved watching Jamie and David skate in pairs. I wish I could have called her....but I know she's happy for me and she was probably looking down this morning!
