Last Friday I was fortunate enough to rub elbows with some some Hollywood types. Can you tell I’m from Wisconsin? My friend was bartending at James Kyson Lee’s (from NBC’s Heroes) premiere viewing of Star Runners on the Sci-Fi channel. I tagged along to the BelleVarado Studios in LA and was promptly turned into the “help.” I assisted preparing everything behind the bar, at the buffet, and even a few chairs here and there. It didn’t bother me, I was just stoked to be there. If you’re reading this and live in the LA area, I KNOW you’re rolling your eyes. I don’t care, I had so much fun socializing with actors, make up artists, set designers, writers, agents, PR, etc. To me, it’s all so glamorous (even though I know better). I live in LA but still feel so displaced from the entertainment industry. That’s why I still get a kick out of shaking an actor’s hand and promptly seeing him on a large projection screen in front of me. 
After the screening, my friend and I dipped into the Hollywood Hills. We went to visit a mutual friend who was house sitting for one of her clients (she’s in PR). While I am not at liberty to divulge this individuals name, I will say he or she acts on a very successful network television sitcom. I’m not sure if I will get in trouble for this, but I took the liberty of getting my photo taken with the actor’s Emmy Award. It’s actually much heavier than I had previously imagined. Here’s a photo, let’s not investigate further, I don’t want anyone to get in trouble for this…including myself.
