Dramatic_Irony ~ I'm not going back until sometime in April once my exams are done... HOWEVER, my Mom put the book in a box and is mailing it to, I'll probablly get it in about a week, giving me something to do during reading week, since everyone else living on my floor is going home....

thread jack: I just got "Without You" in the mail today and have just begun to read it! :) It's very, VERY well written. Props to Anthony for his completely accurate description of Midway Airport....heh....

I'm still pissed that I can't get mine until tomorrow *kills...something*

Anthony's got this really uncanny ability to just put everyone at ease... although his eyes are so intense its sometimes hard to stare at them too long.

Just wondering, where did you order if from, RENThead?

I really have no idea what I'm going to say to him. Not because I'm a fangirl, I tend not to be phased by "celebrities," but it could just be that the ones I've met I haven't really looked up to.

I'm not gonna lie. The first time I met him, I was doing some trembling. But I think a lot of that is because I had to just walk up to him and introduce myself, which I'm not used to doing with actors and stuff.

When did you first meet him, Em?

[orangeskittles]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:19pm

Same here, Emcee. At Symphony Space, I had to approach him beforehand because I had already arranged for him to sign something for my sister's friend. Then Em's tells me "There's Anthony, go say hi." Suddenly, my non-nervousness evaporates and I'm standing there shaking, and saying "I can't just walk up to him!" I ended up dragging Em across the lobby with me to like introduce me. It was awkward and I spoke entirely too fast, so in comparison, he was entirely too calm and it only freaked me out more. Then after the movie I was completely different. I had him sign my soundtrack and I spoke normally and everything, but I don't think he remembered that I was the same person. Meanwhile, someone I had met for the first time two weeks before saw me and not only recognized me, but was like "Oh my god, hi!" and gave me a big hug. *hearts Miyagi*

Actually, almost a year ago. Film set!

Random: I'm going to miss Will & Grace. But, this new episode had Taye in it...so that makes me happy. :)

I've never met Anthony before..this will be the first time. The closest I've gotten to him was at Bryant Park. I will try to be as normal as possible.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:36pm

I heart Will and Grace.

Bryant Park made my head hurt.

Skittles, that night was ridiculous. heh. I (a) almost tripped over stuff (people?) when Anthony came in, and... gah. Adam!

Bryant Park sounds like it was insane.

[Bohemian1232]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:37pm

The book signing will be my first time meeting him too. I'm trying to figure out what I'll have to do to keep my composure.

[RachLaura]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:37pm

First time I'm meeting him also, first time I'll be in his presence.

[xM3L24x]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:37pm

awe Kevin Hill, I loved that show!

[xM3L24x]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:38pm

Bryant Park was..wow. It was over a hundred degrees that day, theres practically no shade in the park, and I made my mom get there 3 hours before it started. I was melting, but it was totally worth it.

[Bohemian1232]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:38pm

I liked Kevin Hill too!

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:40pm

It was a movie promotional performance in the summer. It was HOT and crazy crowded.

Don't be nervous, guys! Just be friendly; he'll make it really easy.

[Bohemian1232]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:41pm

We stopped to buy muffins in between The Today Show and Bryant Park, but we still spent plenty of time sitting in the sun. It was worth it!

[RachLaura]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:41pm

Never watched Kevin Hill, but Will & Grace makes me happy, especially when Taye is on it.

[orangeskittles]

Posted: 2/2/06 at 8:41pm

Oh, I know, meeting Adam was entirely weird. Like, this is Adam Pascal and he's standing *RIGHT THERE* and suddenly he turns around and sees Emcee and is like "Hey sweetie!" and kisses her cheek and I'm just like "Oh, it's Adam and he's kissing my friend."

I seriously think the reason it happened was that I just kind of emotionally shut down over the course of the evening. Like the whole night was so surreal that I just stopped processing things on a deeper level. I'm completely normal and talking to Adam and making jokes about Emcee's bad pictures of him.

Three days later, it finally hits me and I completely fangirled out. The whole "You just met the people you've worshipped (in a completely healthy way, of course ) for 4 years" feeling just came around and I started shaking all over again. It was horrible and embarrassing, but better that I freaked out in the privacy of my own home after the fact instead of while I'm trying to take a picture of him and Emcee.

Grrr, I can't watch Will and Grace tonight.
