Movie Star Sighting at the PHARMACY !!!!

My doctor gave me a prescription for Serious Cough Medicine with Codeine (Yum Yum), because I still have a cough even though I think the reason is the Mold in my apartment, which they are still cleaning up.

After work I went to Rite Aid. I picked up a few things like Oust Air Sanitizer and they are having a big sale on Charmin Toilet Paper $1.99 for 12. So I was carrying all this stuff including the big package of Toilet Paper.

I turn the corner of the Aisle to get in line at the Pharmacy. And I notice a huge line of like 4 people in waiting ...and I stop and LOOK at the line and say "Oh, no...there's a LINE !" And person #2 in line is a BIG Movie Star... talking - or pretending to talk - on his Cell Phone. He looked sick, and was all bundled up in a sweater and sounded bad, like maybe he has Walking pneumonia, I mean everyone else had it, even me. Especially me. But then, I also think his wife is pregnant, so maybe it was something for her. However, don't all BIG movie stars have Assistants to run their errands ? ... hmmmm...

Sooo....it takes forever, and he is just repeating pretty much the same thing over on his Cell Phone. So I guess no one will bug him.
I am looking at the floor, and reading the Nutritional Supplement Display -and trying not to LAUGH or Giggle. I mean, the whole thing is pretty weird and funny.

Finally its his turn to go to the Pharmacist. And I hear him say "His Name" and "I dropped it off this morning". As he left, I turned my back to him and looked at the floor. I think he looked at me. But I was trying to respect his privacy since it was the PHARMACY. And no way could I act natural, it was to funny. So I looked at the floor and kept my back towards him.

There was a little old Armenian couple next. Then me. And I said to the pharmacist, "That guy two people before me, he's a BIG movie star!" She just looked and grinned, I am sure she sees Stars all the time. And then I felt bad for telling the pharmacist that her customer was a movie star, cause it was a "private" moment, and I didn't want to dis-respect his privacy.
And then yes, I emailed a bunch of friends and told them about it using his name, but I decided if I posted it on the website, to keep his name private.

But I laughed all the way home .... only in LA ! This is why I put up with living in East Hollywood and having a moldy apartment. Its moments like this, that make having to take Prescription Cough Syrup with Codeine worth it all !
