Default I ran into Jewel!!!

So, I went to the accoustic show in Canada on the 23rd. I was staying at Casino Windsor hotel and decided to go check out the pool and workout area. I put on my workout clothes and headed down. After about 45 min of working out, I was ready to go. As I got up from my last set of sit-ups I noticed two pretty girls on the treadmills right next to me. So I casually shot a glance over and .... yep, it was Jewel and her girlfriend! I about had a heart attack. Mind you, I had been working out so I was sweaty and my hair was a discheveled mess. But, this was Her, standing right next to me. I had to figure out what to say but my head was spinning, I couldn't believe my luck. After about 5 min I finally went up to her. I told her how I was a fan and that I would love to hear " Carnivore " live. Anyhow I left her alone and went for a shower. Later that night at the concert, around the third song, she told the story of running into a fan at the gym and how it was akward because I cracked a joke about her standing on the thing and not running. I guess it was broke or something cuz she couldn't get it to turn on. Anyways, she played the song for me and it was the best day of my life. I just wanted to share with all of you how sweet and kind Jewel is for doing that for me. It really made my day, and pretty much changed my life. I now believe in fate and that great things are awaiting us all at any time. Now if only I could get a copy of that concert to prove to my friends that it actually happened...

That's brilliant. How great for you!!! Seriously jealous of course but nice to see Jewel took some time to make you feel special. She's good like that!

But what are the chances that something like that would happen? Slim to none I'd say so well done you for getting such a lucky meeting and giving Jewel a new story to tell her audience that night.

That is what you call synchronicity or serendipity. It happens once in a blue moon. This is also a synchronicity for me, finding my way to this website again. And it just happened to be in your thread. This is my first post after a year that I haven't visited this forum. Im so glad that its up this time in my workstation.
