If only someone had told me this before I visited 10 Downing St.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I was at a party with Peter Reigert once and all I could think the whole time I was chatting about the food was "Dude, you were in Animal House and Crossing Delancey and Local Hero! Three of my favorite movies ever!"
But I was sure I would come off like Chris Farley on SNL if I opened that door, so I stuck to discussing the lamb.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, yeah, baby.
I had to seriously work at containing myself for an entire elevator ride.
I'd have died with the effort. As it was, every time I saw him it was easy (if somewhat abrupt and odd) for me to spin on my heels and walk away.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
MM was very proud of me for not losing my shit when we rode the elevator with Eric McCormack.

Heh. There are certain people I might pull out a more obscure item off the resume to do something like that with (in my head, not in real life). "I loved you in SHOCK TO THE SYSTEM!"
eta Or in the case of Eric McCormack, FREE ENTERPRISE.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Robin, I'd have been too tongue-tied to discuss anything rationally, pinballing from lines from Crossing Delancey to ones from Local Hero, salted with ones from Oscar.
I can't manage to deal normally with celebrities. Unless they have a small child or a pet with them, then they're just human and approachable and there's a small-talk making possibility.

See, this one time, I was in a store and Chris O'Donnell was there with a small child. Not even vaguely approachable, because the kid was dressed as Batman, and it was the cutest thing ever.

All the ones I've met have been writers, and so far I've managed not to stare at them while saying things like "Um, er, um, um, you're Clive Barker!". Heaven help me if I ever meet any of my musical idols, tho'.

Oh, Jilli, Hubby wanted me to ask you how you feel about being immortalized in plush, ie, the new Gilly the Perky Goth doll that's out.
