So after a couple crazy busy weeks and a little laziness on my part, I am back.
We don't get many celebrities in these here parts, even b (or arguably c) list celebs, so when I ran into
Geraldo Rivera yesterday in my local
CVS I was
shocked surprised bemused. Bemused because there is just something about
Geraldo. Maybe its the big
mustache or perhaps its just the cheese factor. He was in the shampoo isle when I first spotted him. Then, as I waited in line behind him, he was nice to the cashier who said, "I know you, how you
doin'
Geraldo?" He then was followed outside by 2 giddy
CVS employees and was nice to them too.
Having lived in New York I know how to handle myself around a celebrity and just watched from my vantage point in the check out line. As I left the store
Geraldo was driving away in a black Honda
CRV with local plates. Anyway, I had to call Ralph right away to leave a laughing my ass off message on his voicemail. I am still laughing my ass off. A little
internet stalking led me to his reason for being in my suburban hamlet. His in-laws live about 5 minutes from me.
I love seeing famous people in everyday situations, it makes them seem so much more...I don't know, how do you say...HUMAN. Do you have any celebrity sightings? If so, post them in my comments.
P.S. Don't worry
Geraldo, I restrict my stalking to the
cyber type.
