I don't know if it's just me, or if many aspies feel this way, but I get starstruck over people who were or are supposedly "cool".
My husband had his class reunion this weekend. it was a small class, so it's no big party but it was a good dinner!
He graduated when I was in the 6th grade, so I wasn't in high school with him or his class. It was a K-12 school, so you often knew everyone who was in the building at the same time as you, to be honest. And many of those were related.
Anyway, even so, I knew several people in my husband's class simply because of their popularity or whatever. Some of them were just so cool. And it's pretty awesome to me now to talk to these people who seemed to be kinda idolized when they were in school. Even having something in common with them is just exciting for me. It's a funny, funny thing. I don't feel like I'm fully describing what I mean, so I hope someone out there knows what I mean. Long past the time of "cool" people and "uncool" people, it's nice to visit with people who likely wouldn't have given you the time of day back then. Starstruck that they would pay me any attention at all, being I was the uncoolest of uncool. :P
I wonder if the feeling is much the same with real celebrities?
Anyway, just a short little note to talk about that. Anyone else feel that way?
