ZOMG! I JUST MET SIMON PEGG!

[cannibalcake]

GAH! I lose major geek points for not knowing he'd be in town, but luckily I saw a big sign outside the movie theater screening Spaced where he did a Q&A. I practically jumped off the bus. I didn't get there in time to get in, but I loitered long enough to meet him! He was SO SWEET. My camera phone kept frakking up and he told me, "I'm staying

omg, congratulations! why, oh, why can't i live closer to any of the cities where they're doing the spaced screenings?? :-(

:( That sucks. You should totally move to NYC. It's the best place to live. :)

I am SO LUCKY with my timing. I've been so busy worrying about my RL stuff, I've obviously severely neglected my fandoms! I wasn't even taking my normal route home... I can only assume Fate or God or whatever wanted me to meet him. ;)

[sloganonthewall]

hahha yes, absolutely! Fate/God/The Divine/Whatever was like "Mmkay. This needs to happen. Now." :-P

and i'm hoping to move to NYC in a couple of years, so fingers crosses that i'll get more random famous people encounters. ;-)

NYC is awesome for random and not so random encounters. Since I moved here, I've met John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Bruce Campbell, Lucy Lawless and now SIMON PEGG!!!! IEEEEEE!!!! You'll love it here. ;)

What a fabulous picture!! :¬D And Simon seems like a really top bloke, too. :¬)

You're a cute couple! ;¬)

[cannibalcake]

HEE! He really was just the nicest guy! I mean, he was determined for me to get a picture with him, and when I practically bombarded me, he just totally hugged me without any prompting.

;) Thanks! Love the icon.

Wow, that's awesome *tries to pretend not to be jealous... fails!* Great pic you got with him too ^_^

[cannibalcake]

Thank you! He was just SO DAMN COOL! I had to share. ;)

[throwthebones]

AWESOME! Congrats!

And thanks so much for telling about his being in NYC tomorrow! I never would have known! (I suck). I think I just might have to go!

[cannibalcake]

Thanks! We both lose massive geek points for not knowing about this. Luckily fate was on my side. :D I'm seriously considering ditching class to go tomorrow as well.

[throwthebones]

Seriously. I feel like I owe you my life now. If I had found out about this after the fact I may have had to throw myself off of a cliff. SO THANK YOU. I'm definitely going tomorrow. I don't care if I can't really afford it. :D

Aww, that's awesome. Congratulations :)

That's a great pic too, he sounds like such a sweetie.
