While in Vegas, Denis and I had dinner at a nice Italian restaurant in Summerlin. Our waitress (is that PC? \u00a0maybe it’s “server” but she didn’t serve the food, somebody else did…anyway…her name was Michelle) was very nice but she was looking at me kind of funny. \u00a0It wasn’t my first time being looked at funny but she finally said, “I don’t mean to stare but you look so familiar. Are you on TV?” \u00a0I said that I had been on TV and she jumped in and said, “Wait! Don’t tell me! \u00a0Are you on the news?” No. “Wait, wait! Don’t tell me, are you an actress?” No. \u00a0This went on until our soup got cold so I decided to give her a hint. \u00a0My hint was ‘daytime television.’ She stared even harder, trying hard to figure out who I was. “Don’t tell me, I know this,” she said. \u00a0My hair was in a pony tail so I told her I had shoulder length, blond hair. Our staring contest continued. \u00a0Finally I said, “I’ll just tell you I’m…” \u00a0“No, don’t tell me – give me another hint.” \u00a0Okay, I told her my first and last name start with the same letter – that should do it. \u00a0Nothing. \u00a0I was getting hungry so I told her those letters were ‘J.’ \u00a0She had to get it now. \u00a0Still nothing. Desperation finally set in and she called the hostess over, saying, “Do you know who this is?” “Sure,” she said, “it’s Jenny Jones.” Michelle almost dropped her bread basket! She was so excited and said she was a huge fan and watched my show all the time. Have I changed that much? I’m waiting for the day I’m asked the same question: “Were you on TV?” “Yes, I was. \u00a0I’m Jenny Jones.” “No, you’re not.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
