Pinky's Fandance - Wednesday Edition

A few years ago my dear friend Scott (the same one who's a filmmaker and made Pinky's Fandance) invited me to go to an "industry" party with him during the festival. Normally I'm so tired after long days of work, movies, and celebrity photo-seeking, I skip out on the parties and just go home, but for him I made an exception. The party was held in a small venue on Main Street and everyone got shirts that said "Movers and Shakers" (ooh-la-la). While we were waiting in line to get into the party, I saw Rachel Dratch (from SNL) standing not too far away. I walked over, got a quick picture, and then walked back to Scott still standing in line. My big mouth said, "That was Rachel Dratch!" in a tone far louder than it should have been, considering we were supposed to be "cool and hip" party-goers and not star-struck fans. Scott immediately gave me a look like, "Are you kidding me?!?" and I stopped talking about it. Oops-y. See, this is why I can't go to parties. I have no idea how to be cool and collected. I'm just a normal girl. What do I know? As a funny side note, I see Rachel almost every year. The last time I saw her she was wearing the cutest Hello Kitty winter jacket (I was SO jealous!) and I asked her where she got it. She said she got it free the year before and she was kind of embarrassed about wearing it, but it was super warm. I told her to wear it with pride - it was Hello Kitty, after all! :)
