John F#%!-ing Malkovich

Yes the title of my latest post seems a bit lewd, sorry Dad, but I am quoting what Cameron Diaz's character said after going through Malkovich's portal in the movie Being John Malkovich. I am also quoting the line that went through my own mind when I saw Mr. Malkovich shopping last Monday.

Malkovich, Malkovich? Malkovich.

I was shopping downtown at the Paper Source, looking for pretties, when I heard this soft voice. I immediately turned around as it caught my attention as recognizable, and here comes Mr. Malkovich on his cell; he looks me dead in the eye. I was stunned and quickly turned away.

Oh but my story doesn’t end there; oh know because I am a brazen woman! Indeed.

After running to another shopping area and gaining my composure I walked back into the other room where Malkovich was browsing and I scooted up next to him and said, "I really liked you in that jewel thief movie." I was pretty proud of myself. Okay wait that didn’t happen. But in my head it happened. This is what I really said to him, "Hi Mr. Malkovich, I’m Jolene and I look forward to working with you one day."

No I didn’t say that either, I didn’t say anything because I'm really not that brazen, in fact I'm cool, too cool for Mr. Malkovich. Okay too cool to make a fool of myself, as I don't think I would‘ve been able to form a word, let alone a sentence as I was in awe of seeing him. Plus there is the whole respect issue. But I did stand behind him in line to pay, purely by accident I swear! And I was tickled pink with that.

Silly I know to be all flabbergasted over a celebrity, considering I didn’t get this way over my boyfriend Clive Owen when he was salivating over me on the set of Derailed (my next movie, I swear!) but I think Mr. Malkovich is really great, an icon really. I mean he was pretty good in that jewel thief movie after all.
