FOLEY IS GOOD

At some point I will "post" about the Foley is Good line from above but for now I want to relay some happenings in my life a few weeks ago. I'm not sure if I have previously mentioned it but Mick Foley is my favorite wrestler of all time, I have seen his work from his beginning days in WCW up to the present. Sadly the only time I actually got to see Mick wrestle was at a race track in upstate New York (for those of You thinking...hmmmm Albany...NO MORE NORTH...MORE NORTH). I believe this was while he was in between his first and second WCW stints, anyway I didn't know enough about him at the time to truly appreciate him, so my loss. Now on to the present, a few weeks ago my big big BOSS (female) was at a baseball game with a colleague (female), and who should be sitting two rows in front of them but Mick Foley. Well the colleague knew who he was and somehow some way they began a conversation with Mick, leading to Him eventually sitting with them. The story was relayed to various co-workers within my office and this led to my big big BOSS finding out I was a huge Foley fan. The following week the big big BOSS visited our local offices and with minimal teasing handed me a signed Foley picture. Well I was floored, I had always wanted Foley's autograph and now I had it because of a chance meeting between two other people. As if that wasn't enough I was speaking to a co-worker later that day and she comes up to me and hands me her cell phone and I just knew it was Him. I SPOKE TO MICK FOLEY ON THE PHONE, I felt awkward, I had no idea what to say, I felt like I was bothering him because he was in the middle of working out but he was extremely courteous and thanked me for being a fan and I thanked him for every wrestling memory that he gave me. So all in all....I had a nice day.

If for some odd reason my big big BOSS were to read this, thank you very much, you will never know how much all of that meant to me...NOW GIVE ME A RAISE!
