It is always an awkward thing.
I almost swallowed my tongue talking to DJ Bonebrake (of X).
But talking with Bob Pollard (Guided by Voices) was fine since I was introduced and he wanted to talk about the Bubblegum book.
Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh god, speaking of being a fan, I found out last night that one of my Little School Friends is a huge Buffy/Angel fan. It was funny. He's even the kind of fan that watched Point Pleasant for Marti.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Approaching famous people has everything to do with what I want to say. I can love someone's work/face/talent to pieces, and have absolutely nothing intelligent to say about it. However, sometimes it doesn't have to be intelligent. "My friend wants her picture taken with you." and "What's your name?" have both led to interesting encounters.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'm sadly lacking an entourage. But I have mini M&M's.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

My entourage tends to be a five year old who likes to complain about things and a two year old that waves and says "Hi!" to everybody.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
If I am in a situation where I am hanging with famous folks, like at a premiere or a party or something, I have no problem just chatting and treating them like regular people since we're all there for the same reason. I only get self-conscious if I see them out on the street or something. I want to say I like their work, but don't want to be annoying fangirl.

Oh! This reminds me I have some regular sized M&M's stashed in the Freezer. Cashmere, you just made my day a whole lot brighter.
