Phew!
I am back! Guided By Beers were, well, um, interesting. They were entertaining, but they really sucked. Bob was hammered by the end of the night, as were many of the audience members!
If you have read my "about me" section you will know how much I am intrigued by celebrity gossip (#12) and I am always on the look out for them. Not that we get many celebrities in Syracuse, but I am very excited to be sharing the fact that I will now have to change #61 on my “about me” section! I SAW A FREAKIN MOVIE STAR!!!!! Wanna know who?
Yep Chloe Sevigney! I stood right next to her! She is a big GBV fan! I of course did not have the courage to talk to her.
I also saw this guy
Yep, none other than Mr. Emo himself Conor Oberst! Pollard was making fun of him. He picks on a lot of bands. I also saw Albert Hammond Jr. from the Strokes but I can't find a picture of him out there in internet land!
I had a wonderful time in NYC. I went to this yarn store. It wasn't that great. It is a cafe and a yarn store in 1. It was crowded and people were not very helpful. I did finish some things on the train ride down. I can't share until after Christmas. Sorry! But that's it for now!

So now I get to say that I know someone who's stood next to a movie star!! Awesome!
Sounds like you had a great time! Sorry the yarn store experience wasn't the best, but hey, they can't all be good!

Ooh! Chloe! I remember her from way back in the day and she was an intern at Sassy magazine before she was a star. I saw Matthew Perry at a Damien Rice concert back in March. Woo hoo! I love him....didn't have the nerve to talk to him either :(

Hi Beth,
thank you for leaving a very nice comment in my blog! It took a while to find you, but I'm glad I did. I really like your knits, and your crocheted squares are beautiful. :-)

Word on the street is that Richard Dreyfus (sp?) is supposed to be in my building right now, but I have not seen him yet... in DC, you really only see "political stars" ... and they are often not as pretty :P
Glad you enjoyed the trip down to NYC!

Oh! Thanks for linking me! I was actually thinking of writing up the pattern for that neck warmer because so many people seem to like it. LOVE reading your blog.

Wow. A celebrity sighting... and a very cool one at that (I love her acting). I know what you mean about being too shy to say hi. I always do that too.
Thanks for visiting my blog and for your kind comments on my capelet. ^_^ Much appreciated!
