- My 3-day weekend was okay, but I'm actually glad to be back at work today. Same old crap going on but at least it was a bit of structure and I was glad if it - more time doing and less time thinking =)

- I saw Coolio at Tesco on Saturday. I kid you not. First I saw him in the store doing... well I'm not really sure what, seemed to me like he was just making sure people saw him as he wasn't doing any actual shopping, just walking around chatting to people. I lol'd. Then I left and went over to get petrol and there he was again, parked next to me at the pump. Again he wasn't getting petrol (guess his flunkies were doing that) instead he was wondering around the forecourt smoking. Wtf?! This young couple went over and had their picture taken with him which made me snicker and this older couple in the car in front kept pointing and getting excited. I lol'd some more.

- Happy Birthday Lizzie! You're a wonderful, lovely person and I'm so glad we got to know each other... and also prove that we can successfully run things together! You've been a good friend and a great person to work with - thank you for absolutely everything and I hope your birthday has been as awesome as you deserve it to be ♥

*hugs flist lots* ♥

I used to really love Coolie, I still think some of his songs from the 90s are Teh Shit, but that's so awesomely bizarre! :D

It was definitely bizarre, that's for sure =)

Very surreal - shame he wasn't there when you were around - we could have mocked him properly =)

*hugs*

Wow. That must be the most surreal trip to Tesco ever!

Yeah, it counts in the bizarro celeb-spotting stakes =)

Funny you should comment as I was thinking about you this weekend - hope you're doing okay x

Coolio at Tesco! That made me lol too!

Thank you for the Bday wishes, hon! *smishes* xx

Oh yes, I lol'd. Mostly at the reaction of other people who seemed quite excited by it, for some strange reason!

*heffa hugs*

hi honey *waves* Sorry I've been MIA lately. I may be about to slightly comment spam you... :)
That's so funny about Coolio!

Nice to see you around - I consider myself comment spammed and happy about it =) x

It's weird seeing famous or even semifamous people in ordinary places :) It often takes me the whole round of 'do I know them from university/work/family gatherings?' and wanting to nod or wave or do some other greeting before I manage to figure out that chances are I've never actually met the person before :) Sometimes the figuring out thing comes a bit too late, though ;)

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-18 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it was definitely a weird experience - but amusing too seeing other people so awestruck whilst all i could do was roll my eyes and smirk =)

*hugs*
