No Way Around But Through (aka my rambling thoughts about Scott's play and meeting Scott)

Jun 19, 2012 22:50

I've been tired and lazy since last Saturday, but it's time to write things down before I forget more of it. I am going to have to cut this because it will be lengthy and rambly, so bail now if you don't care. Plus, this is mostly for me and my own memories.

Thank you for reading through that rambling mess! :D Despite the red eye, Scott looks fabulous even all bearded. I gotta fix that when I actually print it out. But yes, totally worth it.. and he's really a nice guy. :)

What a great experience you had! :D

I probably would have the same troubles remembering what exactly happened because I'd be SOOO nervous in that situation! ^^ But it seems you did well even though you felt nervous! :) And that is a great picture of you two!

Enjoy seeing the play again (and possibly another meeting)! :D

Thank you for the compliments and reading my rambliness. :D

I did enjoy seeing it again and did meet Scott again, but more briefly this time. I'll post about it later. Thanks again! :D

Before I read anything I have to say that is a FANTASTIC photo of the two of you!!!! Squeeee!!!

I really loved the play, I agree with everything you said about it! We went to see it three times while we were there (end of June, beginning of July). And Scott was so gracious to meet! It was one of the highlights of my summer.

He did come across so different in person than what we see on TV/in the movies! He's a completely different person. Warm, gentle, gracious, 100% attentive to whoever he is talking to.

Where did you stay? We stayed at the Best Western down the block from the theater.

Awww.. mahalo for your compliment. :) Yes, I really enjoyed the play, too. I can't wait to buy it, too. I have to read your Scott play experience.

To be honest, I was kind of afraid to meet Scott, thinking that he would be abrupt or brash from what I've seen in pictures or his roles, but like you said, he was very friendly and gracious. I was so nervous, but his very calm demeanor helped me to focus and interact with him.

I'm lucky that I have some friends in LA who I can stay with practically any time I ask. I stayed with one, then just drove to Burbank to take two friends on this experience I recounted and just one friend the next week. I wrote a recap for that one, too but never posted it. I'll post it on the anniversary this summer. :)

Lucky that you guys got to go three times. If I didn't have to go to San Diego Comic Con, I probably would've tried to go a third time.. but am glad that I got to see it at all.

Oh I was SCARED TO DEATH to meet him! For the same reasons you were. He couldn't have surprised me more....he just bowled me over.

Lucky you, for getting to stay with a friend!
