My Brush With Greatness!

Last night I attended a school performance of Thorton Wilder's "Our Town" in which my friend's daughter was acting.  She was absolutely brilliant as Emily Webb and easily brought a tear to my eye.

As I was leaving I drove past DANIEL DAY-LEWIS.  He looks just like himself.  I knew he lived in Wicklow as well as Sinead O'Connor and hoards of others.

I waved at him as I drove past.  If he could have only seen me.  Oh well, it was a thrill anyway.

That's so cool Aden! I would totally wave at him too, I said Hi to Gerry Ryan before when I saw him at the airport because I knew he looked familiar but I couldn't place him!
