Me: Excuse me, I’m
sorry, but…are you Julie Andrews?
JA: [with a smile] Most
of the time, yes.
Me: [with UTTER JOY] Oh
my gosh, I am a huge fan.
[Immediately kicking myself for saying that—of course I’m a huge fan,
everyone is a huge fan.] Could I bother you for a picture?
JA: Of course.
One of the men took our
picture. She had to go into the
theater, so I thanked her and we said goodbye. I immediately took my phone out to text the picture to my
family, but for some reason, I could not get to the message app…my phone was
stuck in the clock app…my alarm was going off…I was in bed…it was time to get
up for work.................
What an emotional roller coaster.
*As a rule, I hate
stories that end with “…and then I woke up. It was all a dream.”
But I couldn’t resist. It
was so real. The only way Dream
Claire could have known it was not real life was that Real Claire doesn’t walk
by Castro Theater on the way to work.
But I cannot blame her for being distracted by the excitement of meeting
Julie Andrews.
