Brushing shoulders with celeb's

So over Labor Day weekend, Erik and I went shopping (yeah, I know, it was only after I went hiking with him). We hit some awesome outlet malls in Maine. Boy were we having a blast! I was so excited to hit up the Crate and Barrel outlet...Erik went to park the car. I was checking out the measuring cups, and some great spice jars, when I heard some guy talking loudly to someone else...curiously I turned around and saw HIM....

I saw him, knew he was famous, couldn't remember a name or a movie or a TV show for the life of me though. Erik was no help, and I didn't have Val for random celeb quiz, so I was left to let his face mull in my brain...who is he, where have I seen him? I mean, you got to tell the world you walked right next to a celebrity, right? But how cool is it if you don't know his name? Case in point. Exactly why I am just now blogging about it. Well for all of you uninformed bloggers out there, this is Ethan Embry.He has been in a bunch of movies I've never heard of, so I'm not sure how I recognized him. But Erik and I went to see Eagle Eye this weekend and he was in it! (He was also in That Thing You Do but I totally don't even remember his character...the bass guitar?!) Finally!!! One less worry! :) I have to say, in person he was not very impressive. Him and the girl he was with (which I'm hoping is his wife....although it didn't really look like her....but she is also somewhat famous supposedly too...

...were arguing about rugs. He was being a jerk and sounded drunk, but I don't want to paint him as a bad person. :)

THEN....(I know, it gets better) Erik and I run into JOHN KERRY while trick-o-treating! (K, so we were really just people watching, no candy involved). He was just chillin, standing outside his house, talking and taking pictures with everyone.

We were having a grand ol' time until some stranger started asking us if we thought John's wife had gotten a face lift...then we decided to book it. Here is proof...devil horns and all ;)
