Celebrity Day

I used to see celebrities a lot around the city. When I first moved here and I was working at Lincoln Center it seemed like I'd see someone famous every day. It's been a while since I saw anyone really, but yesterday was the day. My sightings may have been a bit B-List, but I spotted three "celebs" in one day!

On thee way to work I saw this guy. He didn't try to poison me though, so I feel okay about it. (You HAVE to know that reference right?) He's actually TINY. Less than 5'6", and he has a tiny little dog that he was walking down the street I work on.

Since no NYC celebrity sighting would be complete without a celebrity TV wash-out I bumped into this chick at the bank. (Ohmigosh! She TOTALLY uses the same bank as me!) If you don't know she was one of the last people eliminated on Bravo's Make Me A Supermodel. She's tiny too, but that super super skinny model way. And cuter in public than she was on TV.

But my biggest thrill of the day, in a while actually was seeing Dan Savage right outside the theatre where I was working. Writer, sex columnist, podcaster, and activist and one of my favorite people in the world. He really made me squeel (internally thankfully) and it was all I could do not to have a fanboy moment and run up to him. I'm a New Yorker now though, (with a freshly minted license to prove it) so I just watched him pass and then went about my business. Maybe my celeb spotting days aren't over after all.
