I already showed you some of my behind-the-scenes reunion pics but there's a whole lot more where that came from. And since I have the short-term memory of a goldfish, I figured it would help to keep a handy-dandy diary of my stint hanging out with the Real World: Hollywood cast. Here's a day in the life of a reunion-crasher.
9:00. Wake up, brush my teeth, remind self that in less than 2 hours I'll be hanging with the RW Hollywood-ers. Mentally prepare by re-watching "Let's Not Ghetto" scene and pretending to make myself cry.
10:30. Leave for the TRL Studio in Times Square. Almost scream at taxi driver for running me over on 41st and B'way after remembering it's time to stop to stop being polite - and start acting real.
11:00. Arrive at MTV headquarters and see Bri standing outside, surrounded by a mob of tween girls who are somehow screaming "OMIGOD! I LOVE YOUR HAIR!" in unison while simultaneously snapping cell phone pics at the speed of light.
11:10. After minor card-swipe snafu (Do I really work here?) get into the Green Room where it's time to awkwardly introduce myself to the cast so they can start pretending I'm not there.
11:15. Nick and Dave inform me that they have matching RW tattoos on their forearms. Meanwhile, Kim informs me that she has (wisely!) skipped the inkfest and drawn hers on with a ballpoint pen.
11:20. Joey tells me he talks to the Chosen One once a month or so. I try to picture it, but the best I can come up with is a mental image of someone holding a phone receiver up to a brick wall.
11:30. After Sarah casually mentions that she's overwhelmed with planning her wedding, I embody professionalism and grace by sputtering, "OMG, you're engaged?? Let's see the rock!"
