Celebrities Inside

Posted on 2007/12/14 21:37:30 (December 2007).

[Friday 14th December 2007]

Another Friday, another end of the week. I am quite knackered, I have been working at things that I haven't done in ages, believe it or not I am doing web site developments and applied marketing productions (mostly brochures and photographic material)... It seems weird, I should be doing other things, but the marketing side of the job that was assigned to me is taking, at least in these early stages the most of my time...

Anyway, I love it! Really, I just hope that I can keep at it in the future. But that's another story and I'd have to dish out details that I cannot quite tell yet....

So it's time to talk about yet another interesting happening.

Every time that we go out with Chiara to have a meal together we seem to meet some celebrity!

When we went to Sicily we met a very famous Italian singer (Branduardi) and an Italian comedian (Sabani).

Then we met a famous theatre actress at Chiara's hotel, and today we are stepping up the ladder of celebrity having dined NEXT to ROB LOWE!

Actually I completely ignore who this person is, but Chiara seemed to know him. I have to say that I was the first to spot him because he is quite good looking and I told Chiara that there was a quite good looking American at the next table. Then when she turned to see him she recognized him straight away!

Good one!

Anyway we didn't even exchanged a word with him, I don't know why we are so shy when celebrities are around. I think it is some sort of fear to upset them, after all they are there having fun and eating a meal... I always seem to use the "if I was there" approach in many aspects of my life, I find it respectful of others, even though sometimes I wished I wasn't so "nice"...

We were at Sostanza, a great typical place where you can have the real Florentine Steak. A bit expensive but we were feeling "meaty" and we wanted to go there also last week but it was closed. The meal was great and the hosts are great too. A bit expensive, but ehi, we ate at the same table that Steven Spilberg used when he was there!

A great evening all in all we were really happy and pleased.

If only the work side was more stable and I had a proper car... I could enjoy these moments a lot more, but at the moment I have to relish with what I am given, let's hope that the future will make things better...

Good bit of positive mental attitude there, Lox! On the "positive" side, not having a car means you can enjoy a drink or two without worrying about driving home!

As for the celebrity thing - well done! In a strange sort of way I find it comforting that these celebrities do actually exist and are just "normal" people!
