No Sign of Hannah Montana, But Still Trying
I'm still on the prowl for tickets to this sold out show. Nothing's turned up yet, although I did receive a bcc of the following email my father sent to someone who handles his banking:
Dear Person-at-the-Bank:
Something tells me that you and the bank could win the undying gratitude of a young client with 2 tickets to see the Hannah Montana show... Price is not the issue, but availability is. If you have any access to tickets that are already sold out or you know where they could be acquired, [Cleopatra] would love you forever.
Who knows -- once in a while it works for the baseball playoffs. Of course, the playoffs come in bunches and Hannah Montana comes only once.
I feel especially guilty because, silly me, I promised Cleo we'd get great seats and it turns out we couldn't get any seats at all. She's been magnanimous but I feel terrible. Chances are some of her friends managed to snag tickets and when she returns to school and hears who's going she'll be crushed. And we know how those seven year old girls are -- they won't be able to keep their mouths shut.
Curse those scalpers!!
POSTSCRIPT: Thank goodness for grandparents! They achieved success within one day, for which I'm deeply grateful. My kids were extremely savvy in their choice of grandparents, and I spend a good amount of time reminding them that not everyone is as fortunate as they are.

My daughter is 9 and watches Hanna Montana all the time. I didn't know that she was Billy Ray's daughter.
I loved the episode with Dolly Parton playing gramma, she is timeless, that girl!
Rest assured, your kids are very lucky, my daughter wouldn't even dream of going to a real show.
My kids are lucky and they know it. They hold lemonade stands for charity and donate some of their birthday gifts to the Ronald McDonald House. If I can instill even a touch of humility and gratitude in them it'll be one of my greatest achievements.
