And i am always amazed at how awkward i can be..
For those of my readers who don't know who he is.. he is half of the team of Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN.. I have been listening to them for at least 9 years..
Anyway... I was shopping with my girlie.. wait i mean i was holding hangers while my daughter was shopping.. :)
And i turn around and there he is.. with his daughter and i look and his wife was at the cash register..
the thought went thru my head.. should i just look stalkerish at him or should i go up and introduce myself..interrupting his family time..
I wonder if he felt safe in a women's clothes store? And by that I mean.. I wonder if he felt he wouldn't get recognized?
Ha! Too bad he ran into the Yenta.
I practically cornered him.. He came close to throwing a mannequin in between us..
So i went up to him... apologizing before i even introduced myself .. I shook his hand.. and then went back to my hanger holding for my daughter.. As i was shaking his hand.. i could feel his daughter rolling her eyes (HA!) as I could feel my own daughter rolling her eyes at the back of the store.
Even though i was awkward and probably blushed to the point that i most certainly looked like i was having a hot flash, he was very nice. As he left the store with the family.. the sensor alarm went off.. he raised his hands and said, "its not me" Funny!
my dad was a former minor league pitcher in the Pirates system in the early 70s. I got to know some famous ballplayer sgrowing up and for some reason I've never been awkward around the famous. I'm wired weird. It's cool you had a good experience.
