Okay, so not only is today the 'unofficial' first day for GenericCity.com, but it's also my birthday. Whoopee!!! I didn't really do anything special, though. Chuck (my roommate) and I went to see Team America: World Police today. It was good for a cheap laugh, but I seriously doubt that I would buy it on DVD. After that, we grabbed a hamburger (actually two -one for each of us) from Fuddrucker's. That was pretty good, but to tell the truth I was actually more enticed by the Pepsi in a glass bottle that they had there. Man, I miss those. They were just as good as I remember them. I got a few DVDs from my roommates, but the coolest gift was hands-down the Clerks/Chasing Amy script book that Mike picked up at Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash. Jason Mewes, was there when he picked it up and when Mike mentioned it was for his roommate Jay said, "Let me see that", and signed it for me.
That was pretty cool of him. I guess I owe him one (if it ever comes up). That was basically the highlights of my day. You don't do much when everyone you know is thousands of miles away.
The day before (Friday) was a pretty cool day, though. I got to meet Ryan Starr from American Idol/Surreal Life 'fame'. She seemed a lot nicer than she comes off on television. The thrill, though, was that I got to meet Shawnee Smith, who have had a crush on for about 15 years now. I ran into her at work upstairs where I know nothing about, but I tried my best to help her out anyway. After that , I talked to her again downstairs while she was waiting for her order and then helped her one more time when she needed to return part of it. I didn't let on that I knew who she was (I just try to respect their privacy when I usually see a celebrity), but inside I was like a ten year old who had just gotten a new bike for Christmas (except that I couldn't take it home and ride it---wait that doesn't sound right, does it?). After she left, though, I realized that she was in that new movie Saw that comes out this coming Friday. I would have liked to ask her about that. Dag-blast-it! I always do that! Okay, so maybe it wasn't that big of a deal to most of you, but I was pretty stoked.
