In which Rhett Miller decides to follow me
Posted by Isabel on July 13th, 2009. Filed under: Addictions, Old 97's, Rhett Miller.In case you missed this earth shattering news last week, may I present you with the glorious screen shot of this amazing news:

That’s right….the fabulous Rhett Miller of Old 97’s fame IS FOLLOWING ME ON TWITTER.
(In case you aren’t sure what this means exactly…it means that my obsession love musical respect for Rhett Miller has been realized….by Rhett Miller himself.)
And now I’m self-conscious and worried about tweeting about witty and clever things.
(I promise to never tweet about poop. NEVER EVER!)

I think he might have been in SLC this weekend & did a live gig on the radio. I heard a guy saying something like “this is something I”ve been working on with the 97’s” and then went on to sing a song. I didn’t catch his name, so I don’t know for sure. Anyway. You are awesome!

At this point, you’ve practically slept with him!

I am SO JEALOUS, but also way too self-concious of my love for Rhett Miller (my husband totally makes fun of me about it!) to be chatty enough to warrant him following my tweets. Much luck being appropriately clever

you are one of only 110 people that he follows. Holy Smokes!!!
Congratulations!
(Saw him at Snowbird Sat. night and swore I saw you. took a pic. not you, you’re way cuter. but still kinda funny)

I love that you are, like, totally famous. I’m so proud of you. And it reminds me that I’m friends with you for all the right reasons.

Whoa whoa whoa. This is so awesome! I don’t even know what to say except you’ve earned it!

Holy crap, this is SO huge!!!
Next step is him confessing his love for you over Twitter. Hopefully the King is ok with an “open” marriage.

This is muy awesome. I am so happy for you!
(The Old 97s are coming to Indy sometime in the next couple of months. When I learned about it, I totally thought of you.)
