Geraldo At Large Part 2

Part 2
We were supposed to be on Geraldo on Saturday night, but due to the sudden death of Tim Russert we were pushed back until Sunday. As fate would have it Geraldo by chance was in Pittsburgh Saturday evening, but we were not; his plane to New York was diverted to Pittsburgh International because of bad weather. It would have been so cool to actually meet Geraldo in person.

I remember watching his talk show years ago and really admiring his bold interviewing tactics. I would have liked to asked him about what really happened to Al Capone’s vault and all the money! One of my favorite interviews he did was when he really gave it to Charles Manson!

So Sunday it was- at least it gave me an extra day to de-bloat. I wish I would have known a year ago that I was going to be on national television; I would have fasted all year!!! The camera packs on an extra 10 pounds so in my case it was 20 ok 30!

I made sure I asked the producers what Geraldo was going to ask me so I would be prepared, unfortunately the one question I thought he was going to ask was not even mentioned; all my rehearsing down the drain- along with my hair I pulled out after the show.

It was exciting. My blog was going to get me recognition as a writer, and people were reading what I had to say.

Sunday evening Geraldo’s producers were going to send an SUV to take me , my son and my entourage to Pittsburgh to a Fox’s studio.

About Mom’s Soap Box

Moms Soapbox is a forum for all of the fantastically ridiculous issues that face Moms (and Dads) in today's world of information overload and endless checklists on how to be the perfect parent. My intention is to break some stereotypes about what a Mother should be and share with my readers the experiences I have had in raising my two teenage sons while trying to juggle graduate school, a house full of responsibilities and a desire to go with my gut when it comes to parenting. My hope is to show that you can be comfortable enough with yourself and your family to show the world that it isn't a competition but rather a journey to learn and laugh as much as possible
