Get on your hog and ride.

So, one good thing about The Flood is I've been cleaning out a lot of stuff and finding things I haven't seen in awhile. Here is a picture of me and my friend Shelby with Jesse James. This was at the Hot Topic manager's meeting in LA. Jesse showed up to the final night's Nightmare Before Christmas party. That's why I'm dressed as Zero.

Let's just zoom in on "us". Look how flushed I was...hee hee. I was drunk and he is SO HOT in person. So, all us girls were a little giddy. Aaaahh... sweet sweet Jesse.

I can't remember how I managed to bring up Jon Bon Jovi in my brief conversation with Jesse James, but somehow I did (I think I said something about Jon's son named Jesse James), and Jesse called Jon, my sweet baby, an ASSHOLE! WTF?! He went on to say that when he was on the road a lot promoting his bikes he would end up staying in the same hotel as the band. He said that one of the names Jon used to check in at hotels under was Jesse James, so he'd be asleep in his room and would get calls all night long from screaming girls thinking he was Jon Bon Jovi. He was sweet about it though, and due to the combination of the alcohol and Jesse's aformentioned hotness I totally didn't even care that he called my husband an ASSHOLE! I was just all giggly the whole time. hee hee... what a dork I am. Anyway, Jesse was totally cool and stayed at the party all night signing autographs, taking pictures, drinking, hanging out. He came to the party to reward the Hot Topic that had sold the most WCC merchandise that year. So, the manager from the store that won comes on stage and gets her award from him and then he asks her how many people work at her store. She says "10", and he says "Well, hopefully this will be enough for you to share with everyone for their hard work." He reaches in his pocket and pulls out $10,000 in cash and gives it to her as a bonus!!! Lucky! Whatever...I didn't want 10 grand anyway. It was a kick ass party, Social Distortion played our fucking manager's meeting that night! Crazy. It was sweet.

Just one more thing. Now, I ain't one to gossip so you didn't hear this from me, but this party was before the days of Jesse James dating Sandra Bullock. He stayed at the hotel that night, and he did not go to bed alone. There are two (yes, that's right, TWO) female store managers out there who had a happy ending that night. Way to promote better sales! : )
