No, seriously.
I befriended Caitlin Upton on Facebook the other day [profile link] in an effort to apologize… and add another friend I’ve never met for mu own self-serving purposes.
I wrote her, apologzing on behalf of all the naughty bloggers in the world who thought she was as stupid as she appeared on TV. Well… she wrote back.
During our company softball game last night my phone went off with a notification of ‘message recieved’. Here’s our brief, but authentic interaction:
Landon HowellI think people (like myself) are realizing that it wasn't cool making fun of you. Good call on going on the Today Show... I think it showed everyone that you could handle the situation professionally...
Caitlin Upton
thanks so much
i apprecaite it alot
<3
We don’t quite know what to make of the ‘<3′, but we’ll take it. We’ll also forgive the misspelling of ‘appreciate’. She’s had a rough week and I’m sure that spell checking her Facebook messages is the least of her worries.
In case you think I be fibbing, there’s a screen shot below…


classic—like such as for example asia?

12:23 pm on Aug 30 2007Now, bless her heart. She’s fallen in a hole she just can’t climb out of. PS – I request that you don’t put facebook screenshots on here anymore. I just got so confused, and I thought I was on facebook. I scrolled up expecting to see the link to my profile, and I was wondering why i couldn’t click in the reply box. Spare me the stress. Thanks.
