Because we met Eddie Izzard.

And he’s wonderful.

And beautiful.

Go here to see photos,
and go here to learn more about Eddie,
and go here to see someone jealous.

Yeah, Rimmer grows on you and in real life, Chris Barrie is knee meltingly charming 😀

And yes, I did turn stupid when I spoke to Craig, but he blew me a kiss during the costume contest so yay for that (maybe ‘coz he’d seen me earlier hobbling around looking for a bandage for my bleeding foot).

I think I posted somewhere else about your meeting Eddie, but who knows for sure. Anyway, that’s so cool!!!

Todd was going on and on and on about the show while we were going to NH this weekend. He didn’t get to meet him though… 😉

I’m only a new Red Dwarfer, but I, too, am massively in love with Lister… And the more I watch the show, the sexier Rimmer gets, too! eek! I swear, if Craig Charles was in the same room as me, I’d turn so stupid.

I went to a friend’s house last night, and tried my hardest not to talk about Eddie constantly. It was tough…. asks my friend, “so, what have you been up to lately?” my reply, “you mean other than Eddie?…. um…. “

But really, I do have a life, it’s just that His Fabulousness has temporarily blocked out my regular life, and replaced it with the life of a giggling fan girl. Oh well. I think I’m just about coming down to reality… sort of.

LMAO, thanks for the linkage which has made me laff. 😛

I know, I was like that at the Red Dwarf convention I went to. I kept thinking “OMG! That’s Craig Charles, here, in the same room as me, argh!”

I’ll have a little swoon for you too, just to give you time to do other things.

(Still on the green side)

It’s still weird to think that the guy on those DVDs and tapes we watch all the time was in person… right in front of us… sigh… still swooning.

“But I met Eddie Izzard, and you didn’t”

No, but my bear did, which is kind of the same.

I’m not fooling anyone am I?

GRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEN with envy.
