Already psyched about it, and spending time with my partner and one of our directors.

Planning to go to Italy to see PJ and maybe netherlands afterwards.
Amazing how you can manage to have fun when there's a war going on and a pandemic and world hunger. You must feel super cool about all the fun you get to have.

It's the dress rehearsal, which means she has to be there by 5:30pm. And she has an early wedding booked already. She's shooting until 6pm. So, she can't use the tickets.

I'm so bummed for her. This sucks. I hate this week.
ugh i'm really sorry to hear this. I've entered the lottery every year for like 12 years now, and nothing! I can't imagine how angry I'd be if I were in her shoes...

Any chance she'll camp out in standby some time? I never did that when I lived in NYC and kick myself all the time for it.
Thanks, man. I hate that you've never had any luck either. That sucks.

We'll definitely have to try camping out at some point, I think. It's something we've talked about but never seriously because I don't think we expected getting the lottery to be so difficult. :lol:

Sorry to hear guys.

I did get to attend a Letterman taping back in the late aughts. There wasn’t any lottery system or anything. Basically you just stood in line the day of and they went down the line until they ran out of seats. They taped two shows that day and we were at the second. Drew Carey was the first guest.

I tried to get in (I know the guys at the stage door) to see Ed on Letterman back in the day. But they had so much demand (people wanting to "sneak in to see him" ) that they couldn't get me in. :lol:
