Judge Reinhold and I share the most awesome hair dresser. Katie rocks my socks and I love that I share a seat with Judge Reinhold…even though I’ve never seen him. Katie and I agree that he should buy the movie rights to my book since he’s all about developing the Arkansas Film Industry. So yo, Judge, If your google alert pops up and you find yourself reading my blog, you should totally support another local artist and buy and develop my awesome book into a movie (or a TV series) Just throwin’ it out there…

Anyway, back to the star(s) sighting.

After my hair appointment, I stopped at the new pizza restaurant next door that has been getting rave reviews. I ordered a couple of pies, sat and had a beer while I waited.

That’s when I heard this strangely familiar laugh. It was sweet and lyrical. So I looked up.

It was Mary freaking Steenburgen.

and right next to her…that’s right TED DANSON!

Okay, look, this isn’t LA. This is Little Rock, AR. I know these folks live here part of the time, but the only time I ever see them is when Bill Clinton is doing something special…and then I only see it on the news. Not in person.

And there they were, not even 10 ft away from me.

I did NOT stalk them or go all OMGITHINKYOU’REAWESOME fangirl on them. I didn’t even try to snap their picture. (I did try to figure out if I could do it discreetly…but there was no way)

They were so damn cute. And that Mary Steenburgen just should not be that cute live and in person. With her sweet, genuine laugh. Dammit.

There you have it. Today’s brush with fame.

PS: Dear Ted or Mary…if you find yourself reading my blog and if you have an interest in purchasing the film/TV rights to my awesome little YA Vampire book titled BITE ME…

Just throwin’ it out there….again.
