Hi Gals and Guys,
Ever since my dad heard Christian Fauria's name mentioned on the radio this week, and ever since I found out about "Pats Camp '08" on Comcast SportsNet, our minds began a-whirling...
Today, after I got done with work, Dad picked me up and we made our way down toward Gillette - a somewhat lengthy drive from North of Boston.
Anyhow, after getting a tad bit off course, we finally made it out of the van at about 5:10-5:15 PM. It was, as I see now, as I had expected: the second session's time was made earlier - possibly due to the threat of rain?
I had my custom made Panthers Fauria jersey with me (none of the Patriots ones I had stayed together, and the only Patriots Fauria jersey I do have was found the night of my Redskins-Patriots game nearly two years ago; it's an XXL.
Anyhow, I was trying desperat ely to figure out how to get to the lighthouse area, where, I was informed, they had been recording a couple of nights ago. With all of the construction of Patriot Place, there was no way to get close, in spite of a potential hint from one very kind employee. (We considered eating at Red Robin, too, - just in CASE! - since Christian mentioned it by name the other evening, but did not go there after all
I was sad, and flustered, knowing full well that Christian was there somewhere, as I want so very much to meet him. We tried, and I plan to try again, but... I was so hopeful for a possible opportunity to meet him! I had my Championship Patriot earrings, a SuperBowl card of his, and the Panthers jersey, along with my camera, and a whole lot of hoping...
It was in no way any fault of Christian's or any employees that we could not get close - I just felt like, if he knew that someone had come all the way there JUST to specifically try and see/meet him, well... if he had known about it, I'm sure he would have done what he could...
I love you, Christian! Today/tonight's was a good, fun adventure... One day, I hope, I will have the chance(s) to meet you! ;D
Hugs,
CarrollsMine.
