Our fun and exciting weekend.
Well I still don't got time for a real post but you are gonna get the Reader's Digest version of what's going on.
First of all, my work location closes Friday, OMG! I cannot believe it is finally here :O! Since the store is now closing at 10 pm instead of midnight, I have been assigned earlier hours this week so last night was my last evening shift at Southport. Today I am working 10-2 and Wednesday is 10-4, which will be my last day there. I am alternating between feeling a lil sad and getting hyperexcited for the adventure of working at a different location. Especially since said location is only three blocks from home. It will be the closest workplace I've ever had! Yay walking distance!
Last Tuesday, I had to work but Greg got to see the movie Year One at the Music Box Theatre on Southport (just half a block from work :p). Since it was the premiere, some of the actors were there (not the stars) and Harold Ramis the director was there. Yep, Harold Ramis from Ghostbusters! And I got to meet him after work cos I walked over there to pick up G. teehee!
Wednesday we went to the Lakeshore Theater, where Robert Smigel and Dino Stamapolous (sic?) were showing The Unaired Bozo's Circus Parody from TV Funhouse as part of TBS's Just For Laughs comedy festival in Chicago. It was actually loltastic, especially if you grew up with Bozo's Circus in Chicago :D. At the end, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog did some schtick and I actually got hit in the arm when he threw his cigar out into the audience. I was unable to get it but our friend Rusty Nails (from Music Box Massacre) was able to crawl under the seats to get it lol.
Thursday we went to the Public Enemies premiere at the AMC River East downtown where we got to see Johnny Depp and Christian Bale! I remember I was talking to G. and I turned around and Christian Bale was literally three feet away from me! I almost got Johnny Depp's autograph but I wasn't close enough to where he was signing :(. We went with Ron and Angie and they weren't able to get one either, but G. did get a sweet movie poster from the event so that was all good. I am gonna try and upload some of the pix tomorrow because you all need proof of our celebrity stalking ;).
OK, so this post wasn't really condensed but it was informative ;).
