My brush with fame

[shirenomad]

"I got hugged by the actor and hip-hop artist Heavy D, who is in [the movie "Big Trouble"]. (I told my son about this, and he said, 'Heavy D hugged YOU?' I took this to mean that he had either raised his opinion of me, or lowered his opinion of Heavy D.)" - Dave Barry

One of my brothers used to visit the GIA when it was still standing, and has read certain fanfics to boot. He was in my room last night, and happened to notice my latest Christmas card... and the name on the return address. His exact words: "Fritz Fraundorf sent you a Christmas card?"

*laughs... because she can relate* -_-

BNF-dom is a weird world. On the one hand, you're not really anybody... but people who you don't know know your name anyway and are afraid of/impressed by you and stuff. It's sort of creepy.

(And I seem to remember someone once who was weirded out that I'd dated "Toastyfrog". And hey, when I was being interviewed for GIA, I remember thinking for a moment "AAAH I'M ON IRC WITH ANDREW VESTAL TALKING ABOUT LATE 80S RAP!" -_-)
