Someone at the LGBT Center signing in NYC gave him a stuffed frog and made him take a picture with it on his head.

I was at the Boston signing too, and was also sorta bummed about how tight security was. I really wanted to get the tango pic or at least a hug, and figured that he wouldn't be able to do either, but I asked him for a hug anyway so I wouldn't have any regrets (since I usually kind of choke and don't say anything when I'm in that sort of situation where I'm really nervous). So I asked him and he was so sweet and nice about it. I think he said something like "Well, I can't really do a full hug because of the time and all the other people here..." so I ended up with a hanshake, which was nice. Plus, I had no idea that he would be reading or singing, so that was a great surprise. It was a great day overall...wish I could've met some of you!

Sorry if I'm rambling guys, but I'm trying to avoid writing a research paper that's due tomorrow that I've decided to put off until tonight, and decided that this would be a good way to put it off for a few more minutes...ugh, I really need to stop my procrastinating. lol. By the way, does anyone know what Anthony's doing at Boston College on May 3? Just curious. Well, I'm off to write my paper now. Sorry about the length/rambling.

Rachel- what number were you? I saw someone give him a handshake.
I didn't hear anything about him being a BC on May 3.
What's the research paper on?

aww that pic is so cute!

what's the paper on rach?

[Rachel2789]

Posted: 3/29/06 at 9:53pm

Wait a minute, someone made him put a stuffed frog on his head? Oh man.

[Rachel2789]

The paper's on controcersial elections in American history. My thesis is "The presidential elections of 1824, 1876, 1888, and 2000 were the most controversial in American history." *sigh* It's driving me crazy! lol

eek. Good luck with that. Elections have never been my strong suit, but I do know what happened in 2000.
I also have to write a research paper but it's not due soon. It's for Abnormal Psych and I haven't picked my subject yet.
Hurrah for papers!

Why a stuffed frog?

Rach-it must've been someone else shaking his hand. They would've been in the 80s. oh well. My friend just said 'hi' to him and that was it. He said that he liked her shirt. ha. Updated On: 3/29/06 at 09:58 PM

Posted: 3/29/06 at 10:01pm

Eh, I guess we should all be glad that I won't ever be in a situation like that because I'd definitely just give the person an odd look and say 'bitch, are you crazy?!'

I guess that is why people tend to stay away.

[Rachel2789]

Posted: 3/29/06 at 10:05pm

Oh I know, I thought it wouild be one of the easier things to write about, but I'm finding that that wasn't right. And yeah, it might've been me that you saw give him a handshake. I was wearing a pink sweater type thing with a white tanktop underneath with jeans. It was the best handshake ever.

p.s.-that picture is adorable!

EDIT-oops catharsis...didn't realize the edit where you said it must've been someone else. oh man, I am so tired right now. oy. Updated On: 3/29/06 at 10:05 PM

catharsis, i doubt i'll be in boston to see rent beacuse i just saw it here in ct lol

and what's wrong with giving 200 people hugs? lol

[catharsis]

Posted: 3/29/06 at 10:17pm

Aww. I was hoping to see it in CT but the drive was too long and I missed getting tickets. We'll have to have a BWW Boston meet someday. That'd be fun.


Rachel-it's okay. I've called boys girls by accident online before. It made a rather sticky situation. Updated On: 3/29/06 at 10:17 PM

I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure what actually happened re: the frog story is they gave him the frog and requested "goofy pictures" or something like that, so he put the frog on his head...I don't think they actually asked him to put the frog on his head, but like I said I'm not 100% sure.

Abba and Cath, did the numbers determine your spot in line? Like were you the 38th person if you were number 38? In that situation this wouldn't be helpful, but at Rutgers the girls who wanted the tango pics waited for everyone to finish so then they could take them, and they all asked for hugs and got them. So I would say maybe if you were last but obviously if you had to go by number you wouldn't be able to control that.

Posted: 3/29/06 at 10:23pm

i was number 4 lol buyt i hung out the whole time. he must have given out hugs after i left. i want an anthony hug! i already got two adam hugs

we do need a boston bww get together... ya know... i'm going to boston for the autism walk (see my sig) at the patriots stadium... maybe we could make a bww team... right now my team is just called "team lauren" lol

[catharsis]

Posted: 3/29/06 at 10:23pm

Wicked-Yep, the numbers were for the line. I guess Anthony was on a schedule and had to be out by 7:30..so I don't if they would let people hug'im then. I think he had a thing a Northeastern last night, too.


A BWW team for that walk would be pretty cool. I'd do it. Updated On: 3/29/06 at 10:23 PM

[mizzairee]

Posted: 3/29/06 at 10:32pm

I hate research papers... right now I'm worried about a belly dancing performance I'm doing tomorrow; I just learned the routine yesterday! Practice, practice, practice...

Sounds like you guys had fun meeting Anthony! Catharsis, I absolutely love that picture. =)
