Birthday Twin

I've never met anyone born on the same day as me. That all changed yesterday when I was leaving a crowded parking lot of a bagel shop . I was walking to my car and saw another car pull in. I caught the eye of the man in the car and pointed at mine and mouthed "I'm leaving, you can have my spot." The man nodded and backed up to allow me to pull out. I get in the car and my friend says to me. "Um, that was Harrison Ford".  And it totally was,  earring and all.  I would never have noticed on my own. I could have had this close to life-changing experience and never have realized it. Makes me shiver in horrered retrospect with knowledge of what could have not been. So all you people that get offended if I didn't notice your haircut, just remember, I looked Harrison Ford in the eye and didn't realize it. This is Proof that my lack of awareness of other people is not personal.

So I performed a random act of kindness to Mr. Solo. And because I work and play in nerd-ville, this should entitle me to get out of jail free cards for having to perform any other acts of kindness for at least another month or two.  Good thing the red cross got my liquid gold O- blood on Friday, cause they'd a been S O L if they'd decided to show up at work this upcoming week. I'd a been, "Um, my charity balance is so way in the black. Next time, fool."

I've been to Brentwood, CA 2 times and seen a major celebrity both times (Helen Hunt last time).  2/2. When people come to visit me, I'm just going to take them to a Brentwood Starbucks and wait for the inevitable show to begin.
