Sent last night from Hot Tipper Greg: I was walking in Pioneer Square today about 3pm. In the area near the toy store on the corner, I noticed a small crowd of people gathered in a circle. Being human, I was curious to what I was missing and decided to walk down toward them.

That said, I've never actually seen Sandra Oh.

1)While performing duties as a CS Rep, I spoke to Lauren "Julie McCoy" Tewes. She was very sweet and I pretended I didn't know who she was and didn't ask her if she is the cheese cutter at QFC.
2)Saw Chihuly driving a little sportscar.
3)Sold Les Nesman (WKRP in Cincinatti) a ticket while working at SIFF.
4)Savage, CONSTANTLY, all over the Hill.
5)Titan porn stars and locals, Dred Scott and Jon Gault.
6)Mark "mom" Finley

Also politicians, and the occasional local indie rock legend. I count Stranger staff as celebrity sightings, as well, but that's just me.

I was hoping that Macaulay Culkin and Seth Green were reuniting for the sequel (or prequel) to "Party Monster" -- damn!

My husband thought he saw Anna Paquin last night, but he wasn't sure.

book readings/signings-
Charles Cross
Maggie Estep
Greg Palast
Movie Q&A-
Adam Sandler with director of "Punch Drunk Love".(while working at the Cinerama)
A SIFF opening movie-
Fisher Stevens also at the Cinerama.
At the Science Center Imax, I think I saw an old TV game show host, forget which one, and Dale Chihuly...and who has NOT seen chef Tom Douglas? I haven't seen Dan Savage yet, but would love to, I've seen Francis Sternhagen(she played Carter's grandmother in ER) in a New Rochelle, NY Macy's...and I'm pretty sure I saw Kevin Bacon walking down a NYC street once, does that make me part of the "6 degrees of Kevin Bacon Game" now? ;)
