Hello all....hope you all miss me dreadfully!
I am actually using my work computer to look for apartments (still crashing at my boss's pad!) right now and have to run out, so I really don't have time to do any real pop-eyeing. I just wanted to let all my cyberpals out there know that I'm doing ok and still trying to find permanent digs in the city, hence my continued blogging absence.
Here's one item: I met my first "celebrity" last night. I was at a bar following my friend, Chris's new show with the Knockout Drops (which was great, by the way) and happened to be sitting near Gordon Gano, lead singer of the Violent Femmes. He knows Chris and some of the other guys I know there, so I guess that's a regular hangout of his. I introduced myself and said hello, we exchanged about 5 sentences each and that was about it.
And I'd swear I saw that one guy who's always on VH1's Best Week Ever walking down the street the other day. I can't even remember his name. I'm still looking for Chris Parnell.
Anyway, I'm running back "home" to take a shower so I can catch the Vic Thrill show this evening, so I gotta bolt. Thanks for not forgetting me!

Make sure you line me up some wannabe celebs who don't mind working for no pay (promised credit and possible percentage of profit only) with a nonedescript (so far) production company in Butt-Bleep Northern Ontario, Canada (Honest. Canada is a REAL place.). I can't believe that all the fabulous talent in my own town can't be bothered to ante up their music - so I'm settling for Big Apple talent. Smooth move, no?
Glad you posted... Missed you.
Can't wait to hear more about your new adventure.
also, WOAH CELEBRITY SIGHTING THAT IS SOOOO AWESOME! we met a guy who's on the HBO show "the wire" in baltimore this weekend, and that by fars tops my celebrity encounters... rats
Peace
There are celebrities everywhere. I just don't notice them
