Stalking Once Removed

While spending a week at Rehoboth beach I bribed my kids to be on the lookout for Jeff Tweedy of Wilco. Be assured they all know what he looks like--every time they open my laptop they are forced to see his beautiful face.



You see, in a few days Tweedy would be performing at the Virgin Music Festival in Baltimore. It seemed likely he might put in some family time at the shore. I mean, wouldn't you knowing what you know about Rehoboth?



Whilst you think this is another one of Meg’s far-fetched notions—yes, Meg has a lot of them--this is who Teen saw in Funland on the Rehoboth boardwalk:



Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters, who was also scheduled for the Virgin Fest. Grohl was spotted, says Teen with a very small boy.

Me the Mom Who Never Lets a Learning Opportunity Escape: Small boy. Ha! See what happens to your children when you lead a life of drugs and debauchery.

Smarta*s Teen: It could be that the kid was small because he was two-years old.



Anyway, no luck with Tweedy.

Clearly as a stalker I SUCK big time. Meaning I have to resort to Stalking Once Removed.

Here is a guy Sister-in-Law The Busy-Body saw on a film location near her small town:




Sister-in-Law The Prudish Critical Busy-Body: Clooney is much smaller in real life and doesn't hold much interest to me anymore.

Me The Healthy Female: But is he small where it counts?


Here is a guy who Dancer Turned Chauffer Driver Friend shuttled around in Toronto:



It's Gael Garcia Bernal, star of Babel and The Motorcycle Diaries and the sexist, I MEAN SEXYIST, where are you Editor Lady when I need you, guy on Earth (except for Tweedy).


Chauffeur Guy: There were about 20 Mexicans in the limo with Bernal all drinking some funky alcohol tequila concoction.

Me The Non-Judgemental: And you didn't call me?



Here is a singer that Sister-in-Law The Show Off’s Brother’s family begged to pose with them.

Yes, I am so pathetic that I Stalk Twice Removed. I do not know these people, in fact, I hardly know Fergie:



Me The Cultural Bafoon: Isn't Fergie that Weight Watcher Princess Lady? She looks pretty good.

Sister-in-Law The Prudish Accountant: How many have you had?


Of course, I didn’t always suck. When I was younger my friend and I saw THIS GUY through a restaurant window in Toronto. We waited and waited and were finally rewarded.



Me the Excited Healthy Teen: I can't believe we recognized him without his makeup.

My Mom Who Loves To Rub Stuff In: I can't believe you made me go up and ask to take his picture.


But I'm going back to Toronto this September for the Toronto International Film Festival. Anyone along the way is welcome to stalk with me or at least meet me for a drink or three.
