Open invite to anyone outside of California: If you call and win and give them my name and address, I will take you with me.

Oh, do you have to be a CA resident to win? I knew that.

Yes, you do.

PS. You wouldn't pass for a Roman, but you would for a Diana. Just saying.

Is it just me or is the busy signal getting more erratic? Does that mean anything? Am I finally losing it?

Wouldn't it be fun if the LA County only rule from AAC were still in play as well?

It has always been erratic of me; sometimes it sounds like it's about to ring and then goes to busy, as if it's just super-indecisive. What I do wonder about is when my phone just starts randomly dropping the call. It always seems to happen right around the hour, so part of me wonders if that's the lines opening up and it getting overwhelmed

Sometimes it take ages to "connect" to the busy signal. On occasion the busy signal is faster.... And on occasion, it cuts into the middle of a message that says something about 'your call can not be completed at this time, please try again later.'

ARRRRRGH, that sucks.


I called at 3:57 on my phone and she answered, too quickly. I was all, "I'm way too early, aren't I?" Yep.

Haha I did the same thing but they didn't even answer. They're probably tired of all of us jumping the gun.

I also had the pleasure of hearing my line ring while they spoke to the actual winner over the air. Oy.

Feels like progress somehow though. We can still do this!!

Yeah, I wish I could hear what they were saying. It's creepy. They probably put a hex on us or something.

I've had it ring twice today then disconnect. I imagine that means I missed and they cleared the lines. So frustrating.

Hearing Streets on the radio is magic. I also appreciated the shoutout from Stryker.

If anyone here ends up winning tickets and for whatever crazy reason isn't able to find a +1, I'm ready, willing, and able to be yours! I can offer you a ride to and from the show, arrive super early to get a good spot in line, buy you breakfast/lunch/dinner, or whatever else it'll take.

Thanks, and good luck everybody!
