you know there's a blog called cleveland's a plum?

Monday, June 21, 2010
the scene: constantino's market in the warehouse district. it's early this past saturday morning and i'm buying a roll of paper towels and turkey bacon.

my outfit: i was being totally cliche and wearing workout shorts, my very own "cleveland's a plum" tshirt, and my glasses... essentially looking like a hot mess.

check out girl (noticing my tshirt): you know there's a blog called cleveland's a plum?

me (playing along): oh yeah?

check out girl: yeah, it's pretty random, it's just like this girl who lives downtown and writes about going out in cleveland. she's all over the place.

me (smiling): hmmm, sounds cool, i should probably check it out.

check out girl: for sure, you should, have a good day!

as i walked out of the store i was literally looking around to see if someone was playing a joke on me, or if there was a hidden camera.

i preceded to laugh out loud to myself as i walked home to eat my turkey bacon.

as for that weekend recap showing me "all over the place" in cleveland, check back tomorrow.

happy monday, kids.

and hopefully, since she knows about the blog, she'll read this and be like "Oh my god, I met Alexa!" I wonder if she'll comment... :)

You are officially big time now.

Barbara said...

How funny! I wonder if she realized once she got home it was actually you!

Jay said...

Maybe her saying "she's all over the place" was in reference to all the places you go and fun things you do?

Mandy said...

You're famous! I always knew it was true.

P - i thought about that but i was thinking, she obviously can't be *that* big of a fan because i always post pics of myself. my guess is she came across my blog a while ago or something.... who knows.

the modern gal - i wish being big time got my cash money, ha.

barbara - see my response to P's comment, that's kinda what i'm thinking.

jay - totally, i wasn't taking it as something mean at all.

mandy - ha, the truth comes out.
