Jodie Sweetin: I was probably in 3rd or 4th grade, and she signed pictures for the opening of some kids' store about 15 minutes from my house. I was a big Full House fan as a kid so I had to convince my parents to go. My dad ended up taking me, and we stood in line for a long time (probably a few hours) just to get her autograph. I still have it somewhere!

While I spent a semester in London in fall 2005, I saw a lot of plays and musicals... which meant seeing a lot of celebrities. While I didn't get to meet them all (like Ewan McGregor... sad), I did meet a few, like John Mahoney (Frasier's dad) and Kevin Spacey. The most memorable, though, were...

Patrick Stewart: It was the next to last week in London, and I found out the day before that Patrick Stewart was doing a one-man show of "A Christmas Carol." I was a Trekkie as a kid (I blame my brother, lol) and so I really wanted to see "Jean-Luc Picard" himself. He is a very talented actor, and he was gracious enough to sign autographs after the show.

Anthony Stewart Head: I was a huge Trekkie as a kid, but in high school I really got into Buffy the Vampire Slayer. When I heard "Giles" was performing in London, me and a fellow Buffy fan got tickets to see it. The play was okay, and Anthony was amazing in it. Afterwards me and Michelle waited by the backstage door nervously. Anthony came out and was so sweet and kind. He even took pictures with us after signing autographs (which included a little note and smiley face). I was literally shaking during the whole thing. I could tell that he was a genuinely nice person, and didn't mind taking a few minutes out of his busy schedule to make a couple of American Buffy fans happy :)

( I have proof... )

1. Pay off my school loans.
2. Pay off my car loan.
3. Pay off my credit card.
4. Buy a house (not a huge mansion/castle, but one a little bigger than say my parents' house)
5. Donate to church and charity/ies.
6. Travel the world (by plane as well as by cruise!)
7. Purchase more ballroom dance lessons.
8. Save the rest?

In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I always wanted Xander and Willow to be a couple. Willow had a thing for Xander (not reciprocated) in Seasons 1 and part of 2, and there was their "fluke" for a few episodes of Season 3. But they never went back to a romantic relationship. Part of it may be that Willow found out she was gay in Season 4, and Xander had Anya for a few seasons... but still, I would've liked to have seen them get back together. They have a strong bond of friendship and love - in fact, Xander's love for Willow saved her (and the world) at the end of Season 6. While they never got back together in the television show or in the comic books (at least that I know of - I haven't read many of them yet), I suppose that's what fanfiction is for :)
