~Ok, here's the bottom-line of the story...basically, it's just about me, my girlfriend and a certain "angel."~
* * * * *
Lemme tell you a little about myself. I've been watching Dark Angel ever since it came on. From the second I saw Jessica Alba, I was seriously in love with her. The first time I saw the commercial for Dark Angel, I was like, "OH MY GOD!! There is no way that somebody can be THAT beautiful." Ever since then, I've bought every magazine with her on the cover, cut out every picture and kissed each one every night before I go to bed. Anyway, now that you know that I'm basically obsessed with Jessica Alba, I'll tell you the story of how I met her and got to "know" her.
I was watching Dark Angel, and then there was a commercial to fly to the actual set of Dark Angel, and MEET JESSICA ALBA. Of course, I paid VERY close attention to the commercial. I followed every direction that it told me to do. All I had to do was send something over the internet. Now, of course, I wasn't exactly being like, "Oh, I'M gonna win. Not that many people watch Dark Angel." Please, I'll have like a million-to-one odds of actually getting to meet the "Angel" of my dreams.
I immediately entered in to win. Of course, I watched the show every week, but I just HAD to work the ONE DAY they were gonna tell who the winner was. There was no way I could get out of it, only if there was a nuclear war going on and a bomb was gonna be dropped on my place of business (not gonna tell ya'll what that is). So, I taped it, and me living in NJ, it's on at 9, and I don't get out of work until like midnight, fucken assholes. Needless-to-say, I hopped into my jaguar convertible (in my dreams) and sped home, rewound the video and played it.
It was just basically another story about Jessica kicking the shit out of those Project Manticore assholes. Then, the end of the show came, and they were announcing the winner of the contest, and who the hell would've known. It was Brian Hardy of Bridgewater, NJ (me). Of course, I just start screaming at the top of my lungs. I was making no sense, I was like hysterical. I was crying, that's how damn happy I was. I bragged about it to all of my friends, co-workers and family members. And I got to pick another person to go with me, and that would have to be my girlfriend, Amanda. Then, the day came...
I packed my bags, we went to the airport, went on a VERY long 6 hour plane trip, got into an amazing limo, and went to the set. When we got there, we got to meet the director James Cameron and all of the cast and crew...and we were on set for Jessica's first shoot of the day. In my head, I'm saying "FINALLY I GET TO MEET THE GODDESS." The first second I saw her in person, I thought that I had died and gone to heaven. She walked up to Cameron, who we were with. "Hi, you must be the contests winners..." Jessica said in the sweetest voice I've ever heard before I cut her off with "I LOVE YOU SO MUCH JESSICA!!" I said it so loud that the entire cast and crew could probably hear me. Of course, we started talking and everything, and she was seriously coming onto me, AND my girlfriend. Now, Amanda seemed beyond pissed. She was pissed because I was basically confessing my love to Jessica right in front of her face, and Jessica and I were getting a little touchy-feely. Anyway, Amanda wasn't the only one getting mad.
