I'm (Not Quite) Famous... in the Sunday Herald Sun!

I was greeted by my boss this morning with, "Did you see your picture in the paper yesterday?"

No... I hadn't!


Several of my clients greet me in a similar way... it felt strange that everyone had seen a photo that I had not yet seen myself. I am not in the habit of reading newspapers - largely because I don't have time, but also because I don't like the smell or the way the ink gets all over my fingers. James thinks this is really weird, but I have real trouble eating when there is a newspaper within smelling distance of me, it's just really off-putting.

Upon discovering the news via sms from me, James - wonderful husband that he is - headed straight to his parents' house to see if they had a copy of yesterday's Sunday Herald Sun, and then when they didn't he went to the newsagent and got a copy. Speaking of which, I never knew that newsagents kept copies of previous days' newspapers for sale. But I'm thankful that they do.

So here's to my first ever photo in a newspaper. Mind you, I am most definitely the least famous person in the section, but it was still nice to have my photo in there. And my name, too. :) I've scanned the newspaper clipping - below - found in the "Snaparazzi" section of yesterday's Sunday Herald Sun, page 125.


P.S. I know I've been off the blog scene for a while now. Been working 6 days and attending a Group Fitness Instructor course on the 7th, which has left little room for much else, let alone surfing the net. But I'll be back and regular someday... I love it too much.
