Well, I am back from Chicago and seeing Oprah. It was really interesting to see how things are done. The show that was taped airs today and it is about the Oscar's. She had Diane Keaton and Emma Thompson on and showed past winner's clips. Then we were going to do an After the Show but they had to do a show on the child predator's. They caught another one and she had the man that turned the predator in there and was interviewing him. So we were able to be there for two shows. She looked really good in person!! And she was very friendly and funny in between takes. I didn't get to see much of Chicago at all but I did get to go to a place to eat that someone on this board told me to go to! It was called the Flat Top Grill....and it was soooooo good! :biggrin1:

Welcome Home !!

Wowee, I'd love to see Oprah. Glad you had a good time.

Oh how cool, sounds like it was really fun! and a name like Flat Top Grill sounds yummy!

WOW that is soo neat. I LOVE Oprah!

I'll set the DVR to recod today! I love Emma Thompson movies. Wonder if we'll see you in the audience? I'll look as best I can...what were you wearing?

I was wearing a black velvet jacket with a white, ruffled shirt under it. I have dark brown hair and I was sitting next to my mother-in-law who was wearing a blue sweater and has platinum blonde hair...can't miss her hair!!!! We were sitting on the upper level in Oprah's view of the audience...she was facing us. They had the camera in our direction at one point but that is if they use that. SO! Does this mean that instead of looking like I have lost 35lbs...it will look like 25lbs since the camera adds 10lbs????

Glad you are back!!!

That is so neat that you got to go!

Ohhh...I'm so jealous! I've been trying to get tickets for the past three years. How did you get the tickets? I DVR Oprah everyday, so I'll look for you. How cool is that! :clap2:

Well, I watched Friday's show and they really didn't show much of the audience but there is still the Monday/Tuesday show on child predators...we'll see. But it was a great experience and a pleasure just to be there.

Darn Kathy, I watched the show - but didnt see you.

Who cares about Oprah - we wanna see our Kathy!!!!!!

Ok Kathy, what were you wearing, where were you sitting, so we can look for you Monday or Tuesday? Glad you had a good time.

I was wearing a black velvet jacket with a white, ruffled shirt under it. I have dark brown hair and I was sitting next to my mother-in-law who was wearing a blue sweater and has platinum blonde hair...can't miss her hair!!!! :eek: Not sure if you will be able to see me on this episode (Tues. I think). They moved us around and I was across from the stage in the front row up one level. There was a railing in front of me so I don't know if it will block me or not.
