celebrity.

This post will be dedicated to my recent brushes with fame.

Last night, I was peacefully eating dinner at PF Changs with family and friends when Kate Gosselin, of Jon and Kate plus 8, and her two oldest daughters walked in. This threw everyone at our table into quite a stir, considering Betty and I, one of the ladies who was with us, talk about the show all the time. haha. Betty was really upset because she had forgotten her camera at a different restaraunt earlier that day, and was sad she couldn't take a picture. When I went to the restroom, I ran into them, but was kind of intimidated/didn't know what to say except "hi". And, bathrooms make everything more awkward anyway. But how exciting? Maybe. haha
(Speaking of Jon and Kate plus 8... last week, prior to the name change of the tv show, I suggested to Betty that they should change the name to "Jon; Kate plus 8", in order for the grammar of the title to better reflect the situation. Considering TLC just cut Jon completely out of the picture (making it just "Kate plus 8"), I am beginning to wonder if they have me bugged. Now would be a really awkward time to find out that I'm the star of my own reality tv show. ...Truman show, anyone?)

My second recent brush with fame hasn't actually happened yet. It will happen next week, when the movie "The Next Three Days" is filmed at the jail. More specifically, it will happen on Friday, when I am an extra in a "visitors scene". Oh man. This has potential to be hilarious. I have to take the day off of work, technically. But I will be getting paid minimum wage for the day. It's a fair trade off, right? The experience is definitely worth it. haha.

In other exciting news: I am going to the Steelers game on Sunday!! It's only my second ever!! I am pumped!
