Mystery Celebrity Encounter


Once in a while I do some box office work for a little extra cash. Occasionally, should the show be popular enough, a big celebrity will come to see it. Tonight it happens to be someone who also has a famous sister and whose name may rhyme with Mohn Musack.

He/she has not come to pick up their tickets yet, so I'm anxiously awaiting. What will they be like? Will we immediately hit it off and become the best of friends and creative collaborators? Will he/she stab me in the eye for lookin' at 'em stinky? Will their sister (rhymes with Boan Busack) also be in attendance, saying funny things with that charming Midwestern drawl of hers?

Probably not. Probably I'll just mumble awkwardly and they'll shrug their shoulders and mutter "Thanks" and that will be that. But I'm sure my brush with enormous, though fleeting (Crust Mike Hogs didn't do so well), fame will embolden me to really pursue my dreams so I too can someday mutter disinterestedly at some geek behind a pane of glass who will later exaggerate the story to the point that I had DINNER with them and I was SO NICE and WOW, CELEBRITIES ARE JUST REGULAR PEOPLE, HUH??!

So, let's wait and see. Maybe I'll even get up the gumption to tell them how much I loved Toast Joint Flank.

Get him to talk about Cheddar Soft Dread and you'll be my personal hero.

Quick favour:
tell him I love him and that i will not judge his recent "animals and kids as co-stars" scripts. And that I have low self-esteem and will consequently put up with all manner of philandering. Cheers.

I was always most fond of him in The Swifters and Gay Pennywing...

That song Bili Naylor sings -- "Moe cries," -- I just laugh every time.

It is sometimes painful to ask the dumb questions, but what exactly does it mean to "do some box office work?"

@Kari: If it were anyone other than LolCait, I would assume it was code for lady loving.
