So yeah, did I mention I met Joe Armstrong today? ;-) I still haven't gotten over it, and I don't think I ever will, this has fairly made my LIFE! Settle in and I'll begin the ramble of how it all happened ( Read more... )

HOLY SHIT BATMAN, YOU ACTUALLY HAD A CONVERSATION WITH HIM?! AN ACTUAL, INTELLIGENT, COHERENT CONVERSATION?!! HOLY SHIT!!!!!!! I AM IN AWE! I don't think I would have ever been brave enough to even run up behind him, let alone get my mouth to open and not squeak! DUDE, I AM SO FREAKIN' IMPRESSED! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that you had a conversation with him about RH and Allan, and how AWESOME he is, cos he needs to hear it especially after how his character was treated. OMG! He just sounds so incredibly LOVELY and FRIENDLY and BEAUTIFUL in real life!!! I'm so glad you met him! If it had been me, I would have nothing to show for it, cos I would have been so dumbstruck to open my mouth and chickened out, LOL!

OMG HE TALKED TO YOU FOR 15 MINUTES!!! OKAY, I FLOVE HIM EVEN MORE NOW TOO, LOL!

*SQUEES SO HARD* Man, that's so unbelievably AWESOME!!!

I don't blame you if you don't get over it, ever!

He needs his own show now! XD

*jumps up and down with you* I still can't believe you actually saw him, TALKED to him! That's so amazing! I only hear of random people I don't know getting to meet their favourite TV/film/music stars, never anyone I know! I'm still ridiculously excited even though it wasn't even me who saw him, lol ( ... )

IKR?! It seems I constantly read about other fan accounts of fans meeting people they love, and it makes me incredibly jealous XD, so to actually have an encounter myself is TOTALLY AWESOME! I'm never getting over it.

Definitely would've regretted it if I hadn't done it, and in this instance, being shy just didn't matter, it HAD to be done. There was no going back or contemplating not doing it!!

Yeah, I can believe it too. I mean, I was hella surprised when he said that but thinking over it, it makes complete sense, and I'm glad he did that before the show got cancelled. I know it doesn't make a difference because the show was cancelled anyway so none of them would be coming back, but at least this way he can say he made the decision to leave on his own terms, and because he wanted to.

XD, probably!! There would have been much yelling/squeeing/flailing XD.

XD, I did squee an excessive amount, didn't I? You should've seen me after we came out the theatre, I was hyperventilating walking along the road, I called one of my friends and squeed about it over the phone in the middle of the street!

I don't drink but I probably could've done with a stiff one after that, I'm telling you! XD Sheesh, I don't know how I talked to him either it was a spur of the moment thing!
