A Day of Fame
Did Andy Warhol ever paint boxers? I'm not sure whether he did, but he did say that everyone has their 15 minutes of fame--including boxers.
On Thursday morning, my Mom fired up the computer and everything seemed pretty normal until she started shrieking and pointing at the screen. I thought she was having a weird convulsion. Instead, there was a picture of my butt...on The New York Times website.
My first thought: Holy crap!!
My second thought: Thank God I work out!
The article was written New York Times columnist Marci Alboher who writes a cool blog called "Shifting Careers." Marci has an adorable little French Bulldog named Sinatra and she's been writing about what it's like to work with a dog in the office. She interviewed my Mom on the topic and voila! I was famous!
Of course, fame is fleeting....and the puparazzi has move on to bigger and better things. Miley Cyrus. The Reverend Wright. Paula Abdul. Oh well, it was a nice ride and now I can go back to sleep.
