So yesterday at work. I was doing my typical thing and I noticed someone with a cart was kinda in the middle of both registers, I glanced up and guess who it was:
AARON ROGERS!
I smiled at him and he smiled back. I looked at my co-worker Nick, and he was going to get done before me! Nick didn't even recognize Aaron! I knew I had to get him in my line. I felt bad for the lady after, but I was packing her things up as fast as I could. I handed her the recipt real quickly, and she was just taking her time with her purse!!! In my head I'm like "OMG NO!"
Fortunately she moved asside to get all her htings together.... and up strolled Aaron!
I could feel my heart getting super fast, and my face starting to blush. In my head I'm thinking "Amanda you can't blush that is so embarrassing" So I tired to play it cool
"hi!"
"hi"
"How r u doing?"
"ok"
"Did u find everything alright?"
"yup"
*picked up the Laura Ashley pillow he was buying*
"O these are really nice pillows, we get a lot of good feedback on them"
"Really? good. My current ones are kinda wearing out..."
We actually held a conversation! At the end of the transaction I handed him a receipt and said "Have a good day! The exit is going to be that way..." He smiled and said "Thanks". Put his sunglasses and hat on (he didn't want to be recognized. And left the building. As soon as he left, my co worker Katie goes "Was that Aaron Rogers?" I just nod while fanning myself, my heart still racing. She laughed and said "My husband is going to flip!" It took at good 15 minutes for my heart to get back to regular speed!
I CANNOT BELIEVE I GOT TO TALK WITH AARON ROGERS!
Made my day
In the past I've gotten to work with Clay Matthews, who is a rookie starter, but to talk to the starting QB.... that's fricken awesome!
I wonder who will come wondering in tonight...... maybe Donald Driver? ya never know!
a girl can dream.....
It's times like this where I LOVE living in Green Bay.

Haha, I got that exact same way when one of my favorite musicians showed up to the movie theatre one day I was working there. It was cool because I was going to see him in concert that night. I had like an excitement panic attack & no one knew what was going on. After much shaking, talking with my co-workers, they finally convinced me to stick around after my shift to meet him. Guy met me at the theatre too & we both got his autograph on my concert ticket. Aren't those the best moments? I had Aaron & other Packer players come into the theatre too but half the time I didn't know who they were, but my coworker sure did! :D Thats awesome!
