Rub it in why don't ya! Flattering yourself with that first question. Actually he probably does remember those who asked questions over the faces who asked for autographs. I hate you even more.

Yesterday? Ugh, nope that's way too close to stalking.

"So now I want to find a way to spend another evening in Dan Radcliffe's company. Seriously. He is utterly fascinating. I want to talk to him about a million things that don't have to do with his career."
Oh sign me up for that conversation any and every day! You can call and squee at me, I don't mind. I hate you, but I don't mind.

Your future father-in-law? I told you Dan is not a mormon!

*shakes head sadly* You know the truth, dear. You do. Deep in your heart. He's mine. But we'll have you over to dinner really often, I promise. :D

I'm still slightly sad that he wasn't instantly immolated with lust for me as soon as he looked at me. I can only imagine, though, that he did think back over the night as he lay in bed last night, falling asleep and....

Poor delusional little Robin, Dan's and my heart just ache for you sweeite.

How could he be instantly immolated with lust if I wasn't there? And I just checked, he was too tired to think about anything as he fell asleep last night. He made me promise to go a little easier on him once the play actually opens. ;-)

Okay a peculiar thought just occured to me. You waved and smiled at Alan. You think Jess felt that in some cosmic way?

I commend your ability to be intelligent in the presence of your blue gaze of choice. (Sadly, due to unreasonable shyness on my part, this is a thing I was not able to pull off with my pet actor.) Sounds like you gave him a really interesting question about his character to chew over.

Ugh, I think I would have cried if I'd had to run through sticky August, New York City heat in a carefully chosen outfit, on the way to something that was so looked-forward too!

Fortunately for me, it wasn't too evilly hot yesterday evening. I was a little damp in places when I got there, but dried pretty quickly. :)

Did you get shy? Didn't you talk to Lij when you met him? I couldn't wait to get up there -- the chance to be the center of his attention was the best thing I could've hoped for!

I couldn't utter one intelligent word. I'm like that with men I find attractive; doesn't matter how old they are (and one of my man-crushes was in his late 60's) I'm tongue tied, and can barely meet their eyes. I think it's something to do with my emotionally distant father, whose reserve would crack only long enough to tease me cruelly about any boys he even suspected I liked. It's kind of a wonder I ever got married I suppose, but H_D is a lovely gentle man.

**bounces**

Oh wow, how exciting! I really must commend you on your poise under "pressure". I love that he obviously put such thought into his answer was conversational. What a thrill for you!

Gah, and you had the perfect night to be in NYC...it was delightful out!

Thank you, hon! Really? One of, if not the, most exciting nights of my life. Is that sad? I don't care. YAYE DAN YAYE. He really did give a thoughtful, insightful answer. He seemed to think it was an interesting question, and that makes me happy, because I can only imagine that actors must get hideously bored of answering the same questions over and over. AND HE LOOKED IN MY EYES, PLAIDS, can I say this enough??!?!! Undivided attention = SO FILLED WITH AWESOME.

It really was a beautiful night last night, wasn't it? It was still a bit warm as I was hoofin' it to the Times Center, as the sun was still up. But when I came out around 8:45, it was breezy and cool the way only summer nights can be cool. And the breeze was just enough to propel me forward as I floated above the sidewalk on my way back to the Garden, lol.

I'm very glad you had such a great time! You asked such a thoughtful and intelligent question--I'm sure most people in your shoes would have been stammering incoherently.

Aww, thank you! I spent a lot of time a few weeks ago trying to come up with an intelligent question, with no success. (I was thinking over some of the questions I'd originally considered as I was watching Dan come onstage last night, and I was blushing internally at how juvenile they were!) But the new promo pictures, especially the one of Alan and Nugget, got me really interested to hear whether Dan had become cognizant of thematic differences. I really wanted to know, too, just how some of those differences might be implemented, since a play is a scripted thing. But I didn't have time. :/ I can now think of about 10,000 things I'd love to talk with him about, and alas, no chance to talk with him anymore!

Well, at least I have my answer to the party question about "If you could sit down and have a conversation with anyone, living or dead...." :)

I'm so glad I'm coming up on Thursday the 25th! We may have to get into the city early and mill around the area.

I'm getting excited! I might poke around for a copy of the play to prep. And a few bar mop towels for you! ;)

Not sure yet what my Fridays are going to look like this semester, but I'm thinking that even if I have something regularly scheduled (like Hebrew tutoring), it's going to get canceled on the 26th.

I'm already trying to resign myself to the fact that there is practically no chance that we'll get to meet Dan at the stage door after the show, because we won't be able to get out in time (unless we leave early, which, NO). I'm consoling myself that he's always harried at the stage door anyway, as each person is allowed no more than ten seconds (!). Poor baby....

B&N should have Equus on the shelf, no problem. I got mine there without special-ordering! I'm re-reading it now, just so I can be thinking through the deeper levels of the play, and I've been reading up a bit on some of the literary criticism of it I've found online. (I swear, I love litcrit. It's amazing what people find in there.)
