Geek Heaven


Well just a few hours ago I was walking towards Jonny's, it's a cafe at the Sunset Gower Studio's where I work and a blonde woman dressed in doctor scrubs was walking towards me. I made it to the door a few seconds before and held it open so she could walk in. She looked up and gave me a big smile and said "Thank You". I said "Your Wel...come" while realizing who she was. First I have to say that I don't normally get star struck because in my line of work you see star here and there but this one is part of one of favorite TV series of all. Denise Crosby is her name and if you are a Geek that name should ring a bell. If not she played Tasha Yar on Star Trek: The Next Generation, among many other guest roles in TV and Movies. She was only on half of the first season but came back several times in guest appearance and made her mark in the Star Trek realm.

Anyways I walked in behind her and she saw a group of people standing over on the other side and went to stand behind them. I of course going to Jonny's twice a week knew where to stand. Well a few second past and she realized that she was standing with people who were waiting for there food. By that time more people started to line up behind me. Our eyes met and she gave me a "oops" kind of look and started to walk back over. I waved my hand and said she can get in front of me since she walked in right before me. She gave me a smile and said.. "no that's okay"..but I insisted that she get in front of me. She laughed and said Thank you, you're very sweet and squeezed my shoulder. I have to tell you that my inner geekboy was about to burst. I am not one to bother stars when they are on lunch or not in there "working" mode. But this was very difficult not to gush over her and tell her how much I loved Tasha and she was a great actress.

She ordered her Cobb salad and went over to the fountain drink area where I once again stood next to her as she filled up her ice tea and me my diet soda. She gave me one last smile and then went to wait for her food while I went outside to sit out in the patio. Not sure why I got so excited to see her but I did and I couldn't wait to get back and blog it... this was a blog worth event.
