Your art was the prettiest art of all the art


Yes, we saw Roy (David Denman) from the TV show The Office. We were walking from one venue to the next and out of the corner of my eye I could have sworn I saw him, but given the likelihood of my having early on-set Alzheimer's (memory is not my strongest suit), Marybeth was not inclined to believe me. So, rather than being unsure, we did what any sane people might be expected to do in the same situation.... run back down the street and get in front of him and then pretend like we just realized we were going the wrong way and turn around again for a discreet peek.

Shut up, you'd do the same thing.

Anyway, it was him, but while he (and us in front of him trying to play it cool) was walking down the street some dude was hassling him like "Where are you from? I know you look familiar. Where do you work? Why do I know you?" and all that stuff. It was pretty obvious he didn't want to be bothered, but the guy wouldn't take the hint, so David (Roy) told him he worked at a restaurant in the city and that he probably served him the other night and that's why he recognized him. But the guy still didn't get it and made David take a picture with him anyway. That's when we really started feeling bad and just turned around and continued our walk. Still, it was awesome seeing him. We're both pretty sure that was our first real celebrity sighting.
