So you think an actor would be all cool about something like this… you know, talking to someone famous. Yeah, sometimes not so much!
And of course, being the Star Trek/NASA/Space Cadet I am, I had to jump in, even if none of them see or notice my Tweet!
If any of them respond, you’ll probably hear the squee from anywhere on the planet or in nearby space.
Update: Scrolling through the Commander’s Twitter feed, I came upon this gem:
I took a lot of grief when I was young about my fascination (to coin a phrase!) with Star Trek. My, how times change!

Wednesday night, December 19, 2012. Dinner at Pier 23, San Francisco, after a day of dispatcher training class in Pittsburg. My very first experience with oysters on the half shell. As I said in the video, it’s highly overrated! Must be one of those “do it because everyone else does” things. Or maybe it just takes more of them to break through my already impressive stoic-ness. 😉 Oh, and if they’re supposed to be an aphrodisiac, it apparently takes more than just one. (thank goodness, since I just went back to the hotel room… alone)

Will photobombing Jim’s self portrait
So this week I was in the Bay area, specifically Pittsburg, California, for Dispatcher Training, as required by POST, to keep my certification current. Since Pittsburg is only a 45 minute BART ride from San Francisco, you can be sure we snuck off to see the sights, and tempt fate.
I did two things on this little excursion that I’ve never done before, and since this isn’t Las Vegas, this is (some of) the story! No names were changed to protect anyone… as my “about” says, the guilty are hung out to dry!
oohhh… they’re killing me!

The guys at Andrew Christian are really enhancing my Facebook feed! If you ever hear I’ve had a heart attack, these kind of things are probably why…
