There you have it, my day of stars. You’ll notice that there was no real interaction. I’ll admit that it wasn’t for lack of opportunity, rather for lack of guts. I couldn’t bring myself to approach them. I had most opportunity with Victor and even considered talking to him – but I just couldn’t get up the courage. Damn me, anyway.

I did get to see the Alias set and even walk through it several times. I spoke briefly with some of the crew, though I did not get their names or positions. I took a picture of myself with one of the signs (I know, I’m obsessed). They were shooting hospital scenes in the basement where Matt works. They painted the walls white and put up red signs all over. They even doctored the elevators to make them look like they belonged in a hospital. It was way cool.

I also spent some quality times with Jen’s famous pink bicycle and dorkily enough got a picture of it. Ah, the life of a stalker.

Anyway, it was great to see the stars in the flesh. Hopefully, next time I will get their autographs, pictures – or at least speak to them! AH!
