aragarna... Because all I asked for Christmas was Tim DeKay. And guess what? I did get Tim DeKay!
So, my apologizes for the lack of White Collar squee and icons this week, I was busy emptying my bank account to fly to California over the weekend to go see A Christmas Pudding. If you think that's totally crazy, you're absolutely right. But let me tell you, it was all worth it. Because Tim, by being Tim, makes the world a little more magical.
The show itself was great, made of moving and funny stories. The highlight was without hesitation Tim's reading of The H Street Sledding Record (it's about Family and Christmas traditions. A perfect piece for him).
I was hoping, knowing Tim, that I'd get a chance to say hello, and maybe get a picture with him. What I wasn't expecting was for Tim to seem so happy to see me. He did his best to get rid of all the old ladies asking him if he'd appear again in Agents of SHIELD so that he could come and hug me. And several times, some people came and took him away, but he kept coming back. And he was a real chatterbox! We talked about White Collar of course, and separation anxiety, the future, commuting, and kids... But to me the most amazing thing was that Tim DeKay, renowned and respected actor, was asking me all sort of things about why I moved to Madison, what my job was, how long I'll be there, why studying meteorites...
Isn't that man absolutely adorable?

3. There is nothing better than being on the receiving end of a Tim DeKay Charm Offensive.

Date: 2014-12-16 07:16 am (UTC)wow that was another great adventure, and Tim is such incredible person. That was almost perfect way to say goodbye to White Collar wasn't it? I hope we got to see him in another great leading role soon :) And you are such lucky girl!!!

Date: 2014-12-16 05:06 pm (UTC)He is *absolutely* wonderful. Seriously, I still can't believe it. He came back to me (and the little group of people I was talking to) 3 times! And he wouldn't let go of me for our goodbye hug!

*gives you a nudge to take one more step to "real" fan* ;-)

P.S. Ofc he's a chatterbox! He's a Gemini. ;)

I do feel blessed that I got to meet Tim. He's such a wonderful person.
