About juniemarie

O.K., let's see... what can I say about myself...?

Hmmmm... I've got it! I love Donny! I've loved him since I was a little girl. And even though I've been happily married for (many) years, I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Donny. And then, there's this: In February, my sister & I went to the Donny & Marie show in Vegas. Donny & Marie were very personable and charming, and seemed quite down to earth - they made us feel very comfortable. We were able to chat with them for a few moments (after the hug) while they signed their photos. And I actually made them laugh! I told them about something that happend when I was a teenager living in Utah:
One day, after I got home from school, the phone rang & I answered it. "Is Donny there?" a girl's voice asked.
"Donny who?" I asked.

"Donny Osmond," the girl said, "Isn't this Marie?"

Thinking someone was playing a practical joke, I decided to play along. "Yes, this is Marie," I said. (My middle name is "Marie," so it wasn't entirely untrue...) "How did you get this number?" I asked, injecting just the right amount of suspicion into my voice.

"My friend gave it to me," she said. Then I heard her say in an excited voice to someone on the other end of the line, "I'm talking to Marie!" Then, to me she said, "Will you give Donny a message?"

"Sure," I said.

"She's going to give him my message!" she relayed giddily to her friend. Speaking to me again, she said, "Will you tell him that I called?"

"Sure," I said again, "as soon as I see him."

"You promise?" she asked, "You won't forget, will you?"

"No, I promise - as soon as I see him."

Both Donny & Marie were laughing at this point, and Donny said, "And now you've kept your promise!"

"Yeah, but for the life of me I can't remember what her name was. But, whoever she was, she called - and now I've finally given you her message."

Anyway, glad you had a wonderful time in Vegas and yes, they are so warm and "real" it was an incredible experience for me too!!! xx Rebecca

    Hey there! I feel a little bit intimidated too. Just like you I feel like the new kid as well. I think you and I will be just fine. After all we are Donny fans as much as the next gal, you know? It will be fun talking with you on Twitter! Sherry

    Hi - nice to meet you, too! Where is Lutz, exactly? I'm over on the east coast - about an hour south of Daytona Beach. When were you in Vegas? I'm so excited to be going back in July - I can't wait!

    YES! He took me on stage & sang to me. Still one of the happiest nights of my life. I posted it after it happened last October. He even danced a little slow dance with me! (He was sweaty and that was fine!) It was a dream come true. When were you in Vegas? Were you at the GT for his birthday in December?
