Mr. Belding!!!!!!


Fuck yeaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!

Dennis Haskins, who played Mr. Belding on Saved By The Bell, randomly made a special appearance late last night at a Mexican restaurant here in town. Of course, Rian and I raced over there immediately, as we grew up with the show.


I was really excited that we caught up with my friend Monica & her buddies at the event. Children of the 90s unite!! Hehe!



Monica even got Mr. Belding to sign her Bayside High t-shirt, which I thought was the coolest thing ever! He seemed more than happy to oblige. I think the television icon was flattered by all the attention he was receiving from pretty young women!



Oh, and in case you don't recognize Mr. Belding because he has, erm, gotten a little older in the past 20 years, here is a pic of him with the cast of Saved By The Bell.



Overall, it was one of the best nights I've had in a long time. Before we saw Mr. Belding, Rian and I went out to dinner and played a few rounds of bowling. It had been a very long time since we'd had a real date! :)


Anyways, I thought I would resume with my 10 Days of Blogging project, which I kind of pushed aside due to my recent guest posts. For more information, you can read about it here.

Day 2: Nine Things About Yourself That Most People Don't Know

1. In addition to having my photo taken with Mr. Belding, I also have my photo taken with Marion Ross, who played Mrs. Cunningham on Happy Days. I met her at a seafood restaurant in my town four years ago.

2. I have spent most of my life wishing that I had auburn hair. (Which unfortunately would just look ridiculous against my tan skin, otherwise I would have totally dyed it by now).

3. I am not as smart as I think I am.

4. A few years ago, when I was a newspaper reporter, I wrote a story about an unidentified man who was caught robbing houses in a nearby town. I found out two weeks later, the man was my ex-boyfriend. He went to jail for six months for it. Needless to say, I was horrified.

5. The only two guys I dated in high school turned out to be gay.

6. I have never fantasized about my future wedding(s), not even as a little girl. Weddings, in fact, have always bored me.

7. Sometimes my road rage can be a bit frightening.

8. I have a really hard time remembering what life was like before I got facebook six years ago.

9. I am now addicted to frozen yogurt, which is a good thing because it's healthier than my previous addiction, cupcakes.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! xoxo

Yo, Mr. Belding is OLD.

He's the one who should be staying away from those cupcakes...

I dated a gay guy in *college*. Unknowingly, of course.

SBTB is my fave show of all time!!! I am totally jealous of you! If you would have been with MPG I probably would have screamed and gone to look for you! haha I also admit that I wish I was born with red hair, but I'm afraid it would not look good on me, even though I am very pale.

Josie said...

SO jealous of your Mr. Belding encounter! And I also am hardcore addicted to frozen yogurt -- it's ridiculous.

Ohmigosh Mr. Belding! I used to want to be Kelly Kapowski as a child. I think that, deep down, a part of me still does!! :P

Thanks for the lovely comment! How are you? x

C.Elizabeth said...

You have got such a beautiful smile and you look so happy on those photos!
"Saved by the Bell"... Oh my gosh! I was so young when this was playing... but I remember loving it!

To answer your question, my husband isn't a photographer! Though I have to agree he is quite good at it. Or maybe it's my good camera! lol

NOWAYNOWAYNOWAY!!! Mr. Belding?!? Dannnnggg! I would have totally gotten a picture with him too!

Also, I too have scary road rage which is funny because outside the car i'm pretty much the epitome of a "mild mannered" person--I also don't swear but once someone cuts me off...it's a different story ;)

OH MY GOD. I don't think I would've recognised him if I had seen him - that's pretty sweet though. I LOVED Saved by the Bell as a kid x

That is so cool that you saw Mr. Belding. I've seen him in a few movies since Saved By The Bell went off.

Imogen said...

Wow you are so lucky to have met Mr Belding. It must have been amazing and very exciting. I would have found it the best thing! I was a huge fan of Saved by the Bell when I was growing up too. I must say that I cannot believe how different he looks now. The change is so dramatic. I'm pleased you had such a fun night. I also love bowling too. I haven't done that in awhile.

Oh, My Darling said...

Belding?! How wonderfully random!
