So yesterday I dragged my cousin from Cali to the set of "The Good Shepard" to see if we could spot Matt/Angelina/DeNiro. No such luck, so we went back home and I took my cousin to the mall. I owed my brother a bday present so I bought the "Life As We Know It" dvds from Wal-Mart since Target didn't have them. They had a $5 dvd bin and "Girl, Interrupted" was in it so I bought that, thinking I'll take it to the set and maybe, just MAYBE, I'll get it autographed. So I went there again later in the day with Kat (who had an autograph book with her). My mom picked her up to take her shopping but I stayed because they were filming and I wanted to see it. So who comes over but ROBERT DENIRO! No one noticed him at first since he was wearing suspenders like every other extra but OMG. He was mad close to us. He didn't come over to sign autographs or anything but still. He was across the fucking street! And then freakin Matt Damon comes over in his trenchcoat and 50's hat. Gah he is so dreamy. So they filmed the scene right in front of us where Matt gets off the bus. Seriously...all that happens is he gets off the bus and walks across the street. They had to cue the guy on the other side of the road to drive by and people to walk across the street to make it look normal but it was like a 30 second scene. They filmed that 5 times and DeNiro kept fixing Matt's hat. It was so cute. Matt was like fooling around by the stop sign and he just seemed so cool. But when the scene was done he just left without signing anything :( 2 girls jumped over the barricades to take a picture with him, but they didn't let anyone else through. But as luck would have it, he went to sign autographs for the people on the other side of the set...where I would've gone but thought it was too far and didn't think they would go there. FUCK ME. But whatever. It was fun seeing them film the scene and stuff. They're only doing indoor scenes today but I have a lot of shit to do so I prob won't be going by. The crew said they were going to Westchester and Manhattan next so maybe I'll find out where and stalk them down. I'm still a little pissed that Angelina doesn't come out cuz of the paparazzi but whatever. It was fun watching them film a movie. And DeNiro is just so cool. Just seeing him there was pretty awesome. The little kids who are extras were way cute. They were waving at us and smiling like they were little superstars. But Maddox was nowhere to be seen, sorry Lauren. I thought I saw him but it was just another kid. Damnit.
Anywhooooo...I have to pack. Sasha's coming tomorrow and I haven't even started. All I really need to pack are clothes though so it shouldn't be too hard. I'm gonna throw everything in a garbage bag to make it easy. 3 more days. SO excited.
So today after we have my going away lunch at work (Dr. A brought M&M brownies!) I have to go get my jeans hemmed, get my eyebrows done, get a mani/pedi with my mom and sister, and go to Ikea to get a shower curtain and bath mat (unless I just wait for Sasha to come with me tomorrow...are you up for that Sash?). And then I'm gonna visit Zoe since tonight's her last night :( I haven't seen her a lot this summer so that's sucked but I'm gonna miss her! Summer's flown by so fast. Ahh.
Ok the patient's here. xox
