I'm a sleepy broad tonight, Dear Reader. It was a happy whirlwind of an Easter weekend. Yesterday Hubby and I traveled to New York so he could play a gig with his old band in Greenwich Village. It was after 4am when we finally made it back to our hotel room.
It was nice to be back in New York, to see our friends, to hear Hubby wail on his saxophone. (Have I mentioned what an amazing musician that man is?)
As for myself, I had enough fun (i.e.: cheap wine) to inform our friend David that he bears a striking resemblance to Edward Cullen. (I can be terribly awkward sometimes. Just add white wine.) But the true highlight of the evening came shortly after midnight, when it was brought to my attention that I was standing in very close proximity to a one Mr. Hugh Grant.
(Editor's note: please read the remainder of this post in a British accent.)
Hugh Grant!
'ello, Hugh! I wanted to tell him I loved him as the noble Mr. Edward Ferrers in Sense and Sensibility. I wanted to tell him how much I'd delighted in his portrayal of the lovestruck, bumbling bookseller in Notting Hill. I wanted...to get my picture taken with him. Badly. But somehow I suppressed this urge and simply admired him from afar.
Above is an artist's rendition of how our photo-op might have turned out, had circumstances been different.
Oh Wein, I should have asked him for pic w/ you.
He would have said yes I mean I was clutching onto his coat after all!!!

Was he with Divine Brown?

I don't believe Divine was there.

Was he bumbling over words and awkward, but did you find him endearing anyway?

He was with some lovely Statten Islandesque ladies, who were probably oh I'm guessing 22?

Honestly, he looked a little tired. Not his usual boyish self. I just wanted him to bumble.
Ya, who were those broads he was with anyways?! Tramps.
