They Called!

The produce of my FAVORITE television show of all-time, House Hunters International called me this week and asked about appearing on an episode of their show!

I noticed I had a missed call, and the area code was 212. I remember from my days of living in New York that this was a Manhattan area code. I wasn't sure what it was about. One of O's gigs perhaps? And that's when I heard the message...A producer from House Hunters asking about our upcoming purchase in Italy and whether or not we'd be interested in appearing on the show.

My heart stopped. Then, I actually started jumping in our living room whilst simultaneously calling Tony, my mom, dad, brother, and two besties.

A minute after listening to the voicemail, I also received an email with more details about appearing. I immediately called the producer, and everything looked like it would fall into place when...she realized that this would be a summer/vacation home as opposed to moving our family permanently to Italy. They didn't want to feature someone buying a second home or vacation property. (Which, let me add is very odd since many House Hunters International are based on this exact premise)!

And, conversation over.

My little dream kind of died.

I spent the rest of the day sending all those people I had called prior text messages with the teary-eyed emoticon.

:-(

Maybe another day.
