I have been sitting on some information for a while, not because it was any big secret and not because I wasn’t over-the-moon excited, but because things have been very busy around here. For once, procrastinating paid off because last week my excitement doubled — literally. So excited to share!
This weekend I am headed out to LA for the Thor: Dark World Red Carpet Premiere. I get to interview Tom Hiddleston and then get all dolled up to walk the red carpet and be among the first to see Marvel’s newest Thor movie.
(Pssst – the guy in the poster, that’s who I am meeting. In case you were wondering.)
Completely awesome and fantastic, right?
Just wait.
I also get to interview (read MEET) Chris Pratt and Vince Vaughn from DreamWorks Pictures’ Delivery Man. Yes, MEET Vince Vaughn.
(Pssst – the other guy in the picture, that’s Chris Pratt.)
Hang on…
Then – oh my gosh, oh my gosh – I am going to DISNEYLAND! Yes, I have been to Disney World more times than I can count. But this Florida girl has never stepped foot inside its West Coast counterpart. I have to admit a pang of guilt in going for the first time without my girls. Hubby and I have long talked about a family vacay to visit The Mouse, but hey, now I will be better prepared to plan a trip with the family right?
Of course, it won’t be all play at DisneyLand (hahahaha, yes it will be), we are officially there to check out the new Thor: Treasures of Asgard exhibit. Me, I am really there to see it all.
We will also be checking out Marvel’s new in-home release Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United (available 12/3) and attend a press day for Disney Toon Studio’s Planes.
It still gets better… On Thursday, I received a BIG announcement.
The red carpet premiere of Delivery Man was moved (wait for it) to Sunday night and we are invited! I get to attend not one, but two red carpet premieres in one weekend!
Of course, that set me into a minor panic mode. I had a hard enough time finding one dress, now I need a second one (plus I still need shoes for the first dress!). Luckily, my uber fashionable sister wears the same size and I now have an excuse to borrow my favorite dress of hers.
Here’s a sneak peek at my Thor dress. (Everyone cross your fingers that the shoes I ordered are perfect.)
Let’s review. I get to meet three movie starts, attend two red carpets AND go to Disneyland! This is one happy mommy!
Can’t wait to read about a red carpet event? Check out my previous red carpet experiences at Monsters University, Frankenweenie, Chimpanzee and The Lion King.
Somebody pinch me!

I really want to hear what Vince Vaughn is like. He seems like a gentle giant. I’ll be interested to hear how fatherhood changes his perspective on this role in the Delivery Man. Tweet me your interview @MommyTalkShow

Joyce – I will try to remember to Tweet you, but you can follow along during the interview with the #DeliveryManEvent. That way you won’t miss anything! (The interview will be Monday at 2 pm PST.)

How exciting! Just between you & me, Disneyland is my favorite of the Disney parks.

Kelly Stilwell says
I can’t wait to go to Disneyland again! I live in Florida, too, and go to Disney World a lot, but there is something very special about Disneyland. And I can’t wait to meet you!! We leave in 5 days!
Suzie says
Awesome, have so much fun!!! Can’t wait to hear about the Vince encounter 😉
Jean says
Wow, how exciting! As a Californian transplanted to the East Coast, I’ve never been to WDW but I HAVE been to Disneyland. My family is taking its first trip to WDW in December. It’ll be crowded but I know we’ll have fun. I look forward to seeing your posts from the red carpet!!
