James Marsden!!! Well... if you call eating in the same restaurant two tables away from him, then I had dinner with him. Oh yeah... Blake was there too. Here's the story:
Blake is working super late tonight because of the election so we decided to go out before he headed to work. We get our food and then sit down at a table with me facing the door. Several minutes into my fried okra James walks in the door with a young boy on his shoulders. I immediately recognize him. I know he is famous but I don't know his name and I can't remember what movies he has been in lately. I rack my brain for several minutes and then ask Blake for his phone (mine was in the car) to try and figure out who he was. I was pretty sure his name was James 'Something' or 'Something' James and I'm usually a Google machine but I couldn't find out who he was. While I'm using Blake's phone I notice a young girl who keeps looking at him and then whispering things to her grandmother. We finish our meal and then head out the door. I stopped by the girl's table and ask her if she recognizes him too. She says yes but she can't remember his name. She could at least remember that he'd been in 27 Dresses. Bingo! I just Googled him and apparently his wife is originally from Nashville.
While Blake and I were sitting at the table he finally decided that he recognized him too. Blake said, "I can't remember what he's been in but I think it's in the 90210 time frame." I agreed. I am so stupid. This is just a sampling of the movies he has been in lately: 27 Dresses, Enchanted, Hairspray, Superman Returns and the Notebook.
I was pretty excited about seeing him. I love seeing famous people. Just so you know... if I ever see Brad Praisley around town I will probably wet my pants.

I would be so excited to see him...anyone famous is fun. One time in Nashville I saw Tanya Tucker and I was really excited. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if it was her or someone else of that same caliber. Nina's mom swears that she saw Tom Cruise driving down Old Smyrna, but we don't believe her :)
umm...if you meet or see brad paisley i might pee my pants as well.
seriously, i would probably stalk that man if i lived where you do!
what a fun celebrity sighting! i haven't spotted anyone in abilene yet, but i will keep my eyes peeled...
although, i did see downing bowls (news anchor) at chick-fil-a a few weeks ago. that was pretty exciting
