Encounters with famous people!

I still hallucinate celebrities but I think I can tell the difference now. If they are driving by in a car, it is likely a hallucination.

Duran Duran is playing the KAABOO music festival in San Diego this weekend. I wish I was there. Tickets are too expensive. Dang I would go just to see them!

Edward James Olmos came to my high school and read poetry once. I didn’t know who the hell he was at the time, this was before Battlestar Galactica.

That’s the only celebrity I’ve ever seen. I had a chance to catch Obama speak at my community college in northern VA before he was elected, but I didn’t go. I wish I had gone, I totally regret it.

When I was 10 I got the captain of my hometown hockey team to sign an autograph for me!! He was super cool he even got another teammate to sign too!!

I saw him at the local ice rink. Its a fond memory

Ugh I can relate. Why do we feel compelled to get rid of things when we’re panicked or psychotic? Occasionally I go looking for something and can’t find it and then remember that I probably got rid of it when I was psychotic.

Oh! I forgot famous people I met when I worked at Barnes and Noble: Cory Booker, Richard Belzer, Dick Cavett, and Joe Hill.

They were doing book tours.

Joe Hill looks pretty much exactly like his father.
