I am in New York city, and it is a balmy 55 degrees.
Now, I come from Florida, so I’m used to 85 degree weather at this time of year, but it feels like spring has started to seep into my brain. Why?
My faithful assistant Ashley and I have hatched a scheme:
We’re planning on kidnapping Deb Eileen at 5 am tomorrow morning, dressing her up in a strapless dress, pearls and a tiara, and dragging her down to plaza on Rockefeller Center to procure a spot on the Today Show, kamikaze-style. (As traditional publicity methods have thus far proved unfruitful.)
Screw the publicists. It’s time to take matters into our own hands.
Look for us Thursday morning, jumping up and down in our opera gloves and formalwear waving a big sign, trying to snag the eye of a kindly cameraman, or better still, Al Roker.
Call me crazy if you will, I can hardly be held responsible for my actions. After all, it’s springtime in New York.
Deb Lisa and Deb Eileen will be doing a signing of FIFTEEN MINUTES OF SHAME and UNPREDICTABLE on Thursday night in New York City.
Thursday, April 10 – 7 pm

Stop on by, it may be your only chance in this lifetime to see two grown women in tiaras. Unless you’re planning on attending RWA.
Have a great time in NY, Ladies! Totally wish I was there. Here’s to a VERY fruitful signing!
p.s. Lisa I did receive my copy of FMoS and am loving it – that ‘party’ they drag Darby to is hilarious and so right on the money. Not that I’ve ever been to one of those or even hosted one in my own home in order to get all sorts of free merchandise, but I hear they are like that. Yeah, that’s it, I’ve heard it from someone. Uh huh. Yup.
Joanne,
Thanks so much, you crack me up.
Yup, I”ve never been to one of those parties either. I, uh, yeah, totally used my imagination, to um, create the scene. With no real experience whatsoever…
XO,
Lisa
That’s a great idea!! I am so watching tomorrow morning! Can’t wait!!
I’ll be watching. 🙂
Aaahhh! I didn’t know you guys were going to The Today Show plaza!! Hilarious. I so, so hope you get on!!!! Can’t wait to see/hear how this pans out. 🙂
I LOVE this idea!!!! And I wish, I wish, I wish I could come to NY to join you!! I’ll have the TV on.
Maybe use some British or Southern accents to get Al’s attention?
I can work a southern accent —
Thanks all. Will be a surprise for Eileen 🙂 — I haven’t been able to get in touch with her on her cell.
Keep your fingers crossed, all 🙂
Lisa
Thanks all — wish you were here too!
Lisa
What a riot! Can’t wait to see if you get on! Oh, shame I couldn’t be there with the rubber gloves and the apron with my tiara as well ;-( . They’d probably haul us off to the loony bin!
Lisa, be sure to stay at TODAY through the final –. i.e. 10:00 AM — hour when Kathie Lee and Hoda do practically the entire show outdoors on the Plaza where you and Eileen would be noticed!
