I had a brief exchange with comedian Louis C.K. recently as I was putting air into my flat tire at a gas station,wanting it to get me five blocks down the street to the tire place (it did). Had the table next to Angela Bassett, her husband, ?mother? ?mother-in-law? and her twins for breakfast a couple years back. Sat near Harrison Ford & Callista Flockhart in a restaurant a couple years back - he had a burger, I think she had two carrot sticks, lol!<br /><br />Then there was my chatting with (and not recognizing, because I'm an idiot) Jayne Ann Krentz at conference not so long ago. Apparently I am simply a celebrity magnet!Beverly Diehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392288953821757887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350875030481313455.post-15159860679327328822012-09-19T20:06:04.661-07:002012-09-19T20:06:04.661-07:00Roz, you are your own celebrity!

I'll even carry Bebe all the way to Mr. Bond's new digs so she can do her thing. :-)<br /><br />And no, I've never come face to face with a celebrity, or if I did, I didn't notice. Oh wait! I did see Tippi Hedren once.(The Birds, and Melanie Griffith's mom). She came into the Lowe's I was working at, and lucky me, chose my checkout counter.<br /><br />I'm painfully aware that my story doesn't come close to yours, but it's all I've got. I have had my photo made with Nora Roberts and Janet Evanovich. Does that count?<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11918617363619522939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350875030481313455.post-42876929198221426042012-09-17T21:52:37.307-07:002012-09-17T21:52:37.307-07:00Uh-oh.

He lived down the street from my cousins and they knew him fairly well. This while he was playing Opie. I saw him a few times and he seemed quite nice. I was about 7 or 8 at the time.<br /><br />I also saw Buffy from the TV show Family Affair. I was working for the police department. I can't really say more, except that night she definitely wasn't cute and adorable.Kathy Bennetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03224602522480613934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350875030481313455.post-64020676645986208372012-09-17T15:07:27.988-07:002012-09-17T15:07:27.988-07:00Just to let you know, your blog is so much fun and...Just to let you know, your blog is so much fun and your voice shines through. I adore Beirce Prosnan! He only gets sexier with age, but I hope poop bag lady wasn't the reason for his move? Kidding. It was probably your dog.<br /><br />Now, I've never thought about bringing an adult beverage while walking my dog. Must reconsider my strategy - walk fast and get exercise or stroll, sip, enjoy life...hmm.<br /><br />Once many many years ago I went to Dantanas with some friends for dinner. We had a looong wait. In the waiting area I saw Connie Chung. I glanced into the restaurant while we drank a glass of wine waiting for our table and noticed some big guy who used to play Grizzly Adams on TV (that's how far back I'm going), glanced to a cozy table in the corner and saw Columbo himself, Peter Falk. I took another sip of wine and noticed far in the corner was Fred Astaire at the time he was married to the jocky. None of them wished me a nice evening, but I was star struck that night.

I used see PB zipping up the hill quite often. I also had neighbors in "the biz" and got to meet many of the rich and famous. Some of them even spoke to me. ; )Robena Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18389730409379890816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3350875030481313455.post-91900607572512454222012-09-17T11:25:48.613-07:002012-09-17T11:25:48.613-07:00I have never met a famous person on the street whi...I have never met a famous person on the street while doing something else. However, that is because I am terrible about paying attention. All of my friends have to nudge me, and then shout out loud after the whispers don't work, "There goes Ron Howard, you twit!" My response is normally, "Who? Did you say Ron Howard? Where?" Of course by that time, said friend is smacking their head against the wall and muttering things like "I hate going out in public with you." and Ron Howard or whomever is long gone. Probably laughing his hind side off.<br /><br />And I am with Janie. I WISH I lived at the Beach.
