Last week, my friend from work, Denise, tried to win tickets to see the premiere of Sex and the City which was on Friday night. Movin 99.7 was sponsoring the contest. They would ask a question regarding the tv series and then would tell you when to call in, usually 25 minutes later. If you knew the answer, you called in and tried to be caller number 25. Well, last Wednesday, I got home from work and heard the question "What was Charlotte's favorite broadway show?" I cheated and looked up the answer on Movin's website and thought, why not, I'll try calling in. After 4 busy signal calls, I figured, I'll try one more time and after a bit of silence, the call went through. The phone was ringing. Some guy picks up and the conversation went something like this:The guy (which was J Love, the DJ) says, "Hello".
And I was like "hello" (in disbelieve that someone was on the other end of the call)
"Are you older than 21?"
Yes.
"Where are you calling from?"
San Carlos
"Are you calling for the contest and do you know the answer?"
YES!! (at this point, I'm freaking out! Could it be the actual DJ that I'm talking too? Haha!)
"And what's the answer?"
CATS!!
"Congratulations, you are a winner!!! You are going to the pre-party at the O-Lounge in Japantown and to see the premiere of Sex and the City as well as hit up the after-party at LUX!!! Which one of your girlfriends are you gonna bring with ya?"
My friend from work, Denise!! (We promised we'd take each other if one of us won.) OMG OMG OMG!!! That's awesome, wow, cool, oh my god!!! (at this point, I'm jumping around my bedroom!)
"Congratulations and have a good time, Boo!"
About 20 minutes later, they played the whole conversation on the radio. Whoo hoo....I still can't believe that I won something. I've never won anything on the radio before.
Here are pictures from the awesomely fun night we had at the pre-party. And oh yeah, the movie was really, really great! It definitely doesn't disappoint and definitely has a great ending!!!
Here we are with Maria and Baltazaar from the morning show and Alexa from the mid-morning show.
Of course, we had to have martini's. I had a pear martini and Denise has a cosmo.
Here I am eating soba out of a martini glass...only at a Sex and the City party...
